Coffee Ringspot Virus Vectored by Brevipalpus phoenicis (Acari: Tenuipalpidae) in Coffee

Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2003
Coffee ringspot is characterized by conspicuous ringspot symptoms on leaves, berries, and less frequently on twigs. It is caused by coffee ringspot virus (CoRSV), a short, bacilliform virus (40 nm x 100-110 nm). The virus is not seed borne and is transmitted by Brevipalpus phoenicis (Geijskes).

Mitochondrial DNA and RAPD polymorphisms in the haploid mite Brevipalpus phoenicis (Acari: Tenuipalpidae)

Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2004
Brevipalpus phoenicis (Geijskes) (Acari: Tenuipalpidae) is recognized as the vector of citrus leprosis virus that is a significant problem in several South American countries. Citrus leprosis has been reported from Florida in the past but no longer occurs on citrus in North America.

Adaptation in the Asexual False Spider Mite Brevipalpus phoenicis: Evidence for Frozen Niche Variation

Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2005
Because asexual species lack recombination, they have little opportunity to produce genetically variable offspring and cannot adapt to changes in their environment. However, a number of asexual species are very successful and appear to contradict this general view.

Demecology of the false spider mite, Brevipalpus phoenicis (Geijskes) (Acari, Tenuipalpidae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, 1996
Abstract:A life and fecundity table has been constructed forBrevipalpus phoenicis, a serious pest of plantation crops, and various demographic parameters have been calculated. Although this mite has been found to possess a low growth rate (rm= 0.127), it possesses high rates of survival even in its senescence. Under constant experimental conditions the
