Behavioural studies on eriophyoid mites: an overview [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental and Applied Acarology, 2009
Eriophyoid mites are excellent candidates for ethological research using the approaches of behavioural ecology and sociobiology. These tiny haplodiploid mites are highly specialized plant parasites, producing galls, forming nests, inhabiting refuges or living freely on plants.

The genome sequence of a spider mite, Tetranychus truncatus, provides insights into interspecific host range variation and the genetic basis of adaptation to a low‐quality host plant

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 30, Issue 5, Page 1208-1228, October 2023., 2023
The phytophagous mite Tetranychus truncatus is a significant pest in East Asia, but its host range is relatively narrower than that of Tetranychus urticae, another pest mite. We have produced a high‐quality, chromosomal‐level genome of T. truncatus and compared it with that of T. urticae. Our findings indicate that T.

Symbiotic bacteria of the gall-inducing mite Fragariocoptes setiger (Eriophyoidea) and phylogenomic resolution of the eriophyoid position among Acari

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Eriophyoid mites represent a hyperdiverse, phytophagous lineage with an unclear phylogenetic position. These mites have succeeded in colonizing nearly every seed plant species, and this evolutionary success was in part due to the mites' ability to induce

Effective specialist or jack of all trades? Experimental evolution of a crop pest in fluctuating and stable environments

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 15, Issue 10, Page 1639-1652, October 2022., 2022
Abstract Understanding pest evolution in agricultural systems is crucial for developing effective and innovative pest control strategies. Types of cultivation, such as crop monocultures versus polycultures or crop rotation, may act as a selective pressure on pests’ capability to exploit the host’s resources.

Studies on Eriophyoid Mites I.

open access: yesJapanese journal of applied entomology and zoology, 1980
Two eriophyid mites, Eriophyes ficus COTTE and Paraphytoptus sp., were found on fig, Ficus carica L., and chrysanthemum, Chrysanthemum morifolium RAMAT., respectively, which showed symptoms of mottling of leaves, in Honshu, Japan. The two mites had not been previously recorded in Japan.

What feeds on Quercus ilex L.? A biogeographical approach to studying trophic interactions in a Mediterranean keystone species

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 4-24, January 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim Holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) is regarded as a keystone plant species. Trophic interactions may affect the distribution and abundance of phytophagous species, but the number of arthropod species that use holm oak as a food resource and their levels of host specificity are not yet known.
