Chapter 2.4 Pathogens of eriophyoid mites

1996
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the relevant literature on the pathogens of eriophyoid mites and their utilization as natural and microbial control agents. Because eriophyoid mites confine their feeding to the cytoplasm primarily of the plant epidermal cell via specialized piercing–sucking mouthparts, it is unlikely that viral and bacterial ...

1.4.9 Eriophyoid mites as vectors of plant pathogens

1996
Publisher Summary Among the Acari, only the Eriophyoidea are important vectors of plant pathogens. Currently, about a dozen plant diseases are known to be caused by the agents that are transmitted by eriophyoids and all currently recognized vector species belong to one family, the Eriophyidae. The relationship between eriophyid vector and transmitted

Chapter 3.5 Chemical control of eriophyoid mites

1996
Publisher Summary The development of effective pesticides appears to offer an efficient and cost effective solution to the problems of eriophyoid mite control. However, not all eriophyoid mites are easily controlled by the use of pesticides. Leaf or fruit vagrant species are usually exposed throughout their life cycles and are, thus, subject to ...

New eriophyoid mites from Italy. IV. Mites associated with weed plants

Systematic and Applied Acarology, 2017
Geographical surveys of plant feeders on weeds are essential for finding species which can be studied as classical biological control agents of alien plants. Four eriophyoid species have been collected on well-known weeds surveyed on the Italian territory. A new species, Aceria verbenacae sp.

Chapter 3.2 Damage and control of eriophyoid mites in crops 3.2.1 Stylar feeding injury and control of eriophyoid mites in citrus

1996
Publisher Summary This chapter describes the various citrus plant alterations caused by eriophyoid mite feeding and relates plant injury to current control practices respective to species. According to Jeppson and coworkers, seven vagrant species infest citrus and injure plant tissues via stylar feeding: the citrus rust mite (CRM), the citrus bud ...

1.4.5 Secondary associations: Eriophyoid mites on ferns

1996
Publisher Summary Ferns (Pteridophyta) and their allies are probably the tracheophyte group that have least been explored for the mites of the superfamily, Eriophyoidea. Relatively few galls occur on ferns. The effect of gall mites on ferns may be manifested in various ways.

1.6.6 Toxicological test methods for eriophyoid mites

1996
Publisher Summary Recognition of eriophyoid mites as the pests of various foods, sylvan, turf, and ornamental plants has been steadily increasing. Identification of acaricidal activity, the stages of the mite affected, and the mode of action studies are all essential steps in the development of new acaricides that are effective against eriophyoids ...
