Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 23, Issue 7, Page 1540-1555, October 2023., 2023 Abstract In the face of global biodiversity declines, surveys of beneficial and antagonistic arthropod diversity as well as the ecological services that they provide are increasingly important in both natural and agro‐ecosystems. Conventional survey methods used to monitor these communities often require extensive taxonomic expertise and are time ...

Host Specialization in Plant-galling Interactions: Contrasting Mites and Insects
Diversity, 2019 Galling arthropods represent one of the most specialized herbivore groups. On an evolutionary scale, different taxa of insects and mites have convergently adapted to a galling lifestyle.

Notes on the adaptation of some phytophagous and predacious mites to various ecological parameters in the Mediterranean countries [PDF]
Web Ecology, 2000 Notes on the adaptation to various habitats, climatic conditions, life-cycles, dispersion as well as on some morpho-physiological ones of the main phytophagous (Tetranychidae and Eriophyidae) and predaceous (Phytoseiidae) mites typical of the ...

Environmental DNA, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 551-569, May 2023., 2023 We deployed camera traps to document arthropod activity on specific flowers, sampled eDNA from those same flowers, then performed a metabarcoding analysis that targets a partial fragment of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene (COI) to determine all arthropod eDNA present.

Enhanced top‐down control of herbivore population growth on plants with impaired defences
Functional Ecology, Volume 36, Issue 11, Page 2859-2872, November 2022., 2022 Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Herbivore densities can be regulated by bottom‐up and top‐down forces such as plant defences and natural enemies, respectively. These forces can interact with each other to increase plant protection against herbivores; however, how much complementarity exists between ...

Pest Management Science, Volume 78, Issue 5, Page 1963-1975, May 2022., 2022 Artificial pollen supply, flowering hedgerows and groundcover vegetation guarantee high pollen flow for predatory mites in vineyards. These practices should be relevant factors for integrated pest management strategies in viticulture. © 2022 The Authors.

Eriophyoid mites (Acari: Prostigmata: Eriophyoidea) from the Maltese Islands (Central Mediterranean): new reports and a preliminary check-list [PDF]
, 2008 In the 20th Century, about 20 species of eriophyoids were listed for the Maltese Islands but these reports were entirely based on plant gall surveys.
