A Survey of Rose rosette virus and Eriophyid Mites Associated with Roses in the Southeastern United States

HortScience, 2020
The eriophyid mite, Phyllocoptes fructiphilus, vectors the causal agent, Rose rosette virus (RRV), that results in rose rosette disease. Parts of the southeastern United States have remained free of the disease, except for infected plant material ...

Green Oil‐in‐Water Nanoemulsions for Delivery of Phytochemicals With Pesticidal Activity for Sustainable Food Production and Safety

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Green oil‐in‐water (O/W) nanoemulsions incorporating essential oils (EOs) and food‐derived compounds are gaining prominence as biopesticidal platforms that address the growing demand for sustainable agriculture, food safety, and reduced chemical inputs.

Completely predatory development is described in a braconid wasp

Scientific Reports, 2022
Hymenopteran parasitoids are well known for their ubiquitous diversity, important ecological roles and biocontrol potential. We report the first detailed documentation of mite predation by a parasitoid wasp, Bracon predatorius Ranjith & Quicke sp. nov., (

Five new records of eriophyid mites (Acari: Eriophyoidea) from herbaceous plants and fruit trees in Van province, Turkey

Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2022
Five species of eriophyoid mites were detected as new records for the mite fauna of Turkey. The samples were collected on herbaceous plants and fruit trees in Bahçesaray, Edremit, İskele and Akdamar island of Van province, Turkey between 2014 and 2016 ...

Potential New Records of Mites in Australia Based on Citizen Science (Acariformes, Parasitiformes)

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper reports on 10 species, 10 genera and 1 family of mites that are recorded in the iNaturalist database but otherwise not recorded from Australia. They include five species of plant parasites in the family Eriophyidae that may be economically important pests.

Agistemus aimogastaensis sp. n. (Acari, Actinedida, Stigmaeidae), a recently discovered predator of eriophyid mites Aceria oleae and Oxycenus maxwelli, in olive orchards in Argentina

ZooKeys, 2013
A new species, Agistemus aimogastaensis, is described with the aid of optical and Scanning Electron Microscopy. This mite is an important predator of two eriophyid mites (Aceria oleae and Oxycenus maxwelli) in olive orchards (Olea europaea, variety ...

Niche Breadth and Olfactory Context Shape Informed Passive Dispersal

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 4, April 2026.
Experimental evolution reveals that niche breadth modulates informed passive dispersal in phytophagous mites through divergent strategies. While generalists optimise take‐off based on target cue familiarity and signal‐to‐noise ratios, specialists primarily track current host quality to trigger departure.

A hygrothermal model for predicting house dust mite response to environmental conditions in dwellings [PDF]

, 1999
House-dust mite antigens are a major contributor to allergic sensitisation. Since temperature and humidity are crucial to house-dust mite physiology, there is considerable interest in reducing mite populations by controlling the indoor environment.

Developing an understanding of American elderberry (Sambucus nigra subsp. canadensis (L.) Bolli) to support breeding efforts

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Elderberries (Sambucus spp.) have been valued as food and medicine around the world for millennia. Elderberry products are experiencing an increase in demand as ongoing research substantiates their putative health benefits. European elderberries (Sambucus nigra subsp. nigra) are an established industry in Europe and are often imported into the

Non‐Native Plants Attain Native Levels of Microherbivory Richness With Time and Range Expansion

Ecology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 11, November 2025.
Drawing on a continental database of over 120,000 plant–microherbivore interactions, we demonstrate that non‐native plants in Europe are not excluded from food webs indefinitely. With increasing residence time and range expansion, they can match native plants in microherbivory richness, although their interactions involve a greater share of generalist ...
