A risk-based detection survey for the predatory miridMacrolophus pygmaeusin New Zealand

Bulletin of Entomological Research, 2019
AbstractMacrolophus pygmaeus, a predatory mirid used to manage greenhouse whitefly, was illegally imported into New Zealand, and for a time was reared and sold to commercial tomato growers. We designed and implemented a risk-based detection survey to determine whetherM. pygmaeuswas still present in New Zealand a decade later. The survey was designed to

Wolbachia induces strong cytoplasmic incompatibility in the predatory bug Macrolophus pygmaeus

Insect Molecular Biology, 2009
Abstract Macrolophus pygmaeus is a heteropteran predator that is widely used in European glasshouses for the biological control of whiteflies, aphids, thrips and spider mites. We have demonstrated that the insect is infected with the endosymbiotic bacterium Wolbachia ...

Biological characteristics of the mirids Macrolophus costalis and Macrolophus pygmaeus preying on the tobacco form of Myzus persicae (Hemiptera: Aphididae)

Bulletin of Entomological Research, 2003
AbstractBiological and population parameters of the predatory bugs Macrolophus costalis Fieber and Macrolophus pygmaeus Rambur preying on the tobacco aphid Myzus persicae (Sulzer) were examined. Tobacco was used as host plant and all experiments were carried out at 23°C and L16:D8. In M.

Verbetering inzet Macrolophus pygmaeus in tomaat

2014
De vestiging van de roofwants Macrolophus pygmaeus in tomaat komt vaak moeizaam op gang in de periode wintervoorjaar. Op een commercieel tomatenbedrijf is gekeken of de populatiegroei van Macrolophus versneld kan worden met alternatief voedsel. Een standaard toepassing van Ephestia-eieren (35g/ha) werd vergeleken met een 5x zo hoge dosering van de veel

Preference and consumption of Macrolophus pygmaeus preying on mixed instar assemblages of Myzus persicae

Biological Control, 2009
This study examines the effects of changes in the prey frequency and abundance on prey selection among the four instars of Myzus persicae by the predator Macrolophus pygmaeus under laboratory conditions. The central hypothesis was that M. pygmaeus will become more selective as prey density increases. It was also observed that M.

Impact of insecticides on the predatory insect Macrolophus pygmaeus"

Zbornik sažetaka 66. seminara biljne zaštite
Predatorska stjenica Macroplophus pygmaeus Rambur koristi se za biološko suzbijanje najvažnijih štetnika u stakleničkoj proizvodnji. S obzirom na sve manji broj raspoloživih insekticida i na dokazanu rezistentnost na sintetske insekticide, biološko se suzbijanje ovih vrsta sve češće primjenjuje ne samo u ekološkoj nego i u integriranoj proizvodnji.

Λειτουργική απόκριση του Macrolophus pygmaeus (Rambur) σε συνθήκες ενδοειδικού ανταγωνισμού

2021
Οι δύο βασικότερες αλληλεπιδράσεις μεταξύ των ατόμων πληθυσμών διαφόρων ειδών στα οικοσυστήματα είναι η θήρευση και ο ανταγωνισμός. Ο ανταγωνισμός παρέμβασης (Interference competition) παρατηρείται όταν ο ένας από τους ανταγωνιστές απαγορεύει στον άλλον την πρόσβαση στους αναζητούμενους πόρους όπως τροφή, χώρος κλπ., ή παρεμβαίνει δυσμενώς στην ...

Foraging behaviour of the parasitoid Eretmocerus eremicus under intraguild predation risk by Macrolophus pygmaeus

Pest Management Science, 2014
AbstractBACKGROUNDIntraguild predation (IGP), predation between species that use a common resource, can affect the populations of a pest, of the pest's natural enemy (IG prey) and of the predator of the pest's natural enemy (IG predator). In this study, we determined whether the parasitoid Eretmocerus eremicus (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) (IG prey ...

Avcı böcek Macrolophus pygmaeus (Rambur)'un laboratuvar koşullarında farklı avlar üzerindeki gelişimi = Development of the predator Macrolophus pygmaeus (Rambur) on different prey species / [PDF]

Macrolophus pygmaeus (Rambur 1839) (Hemiptera: Miridae) is a polyphagous omnivorous predator feeding on whiteflies, aphids, mites and leafminers. In this study, feeding behavior and longevity of M.pygmaeus were determined on nymphs of Aphis gossypii, Myzus persicae, Trialeurodes vaporariorum and eggs of Ephestia kuehniella , which were harmful species ...

Χρήση μοριακών δεικτών για τη διάκριση πληθυσμών των ειδών εντόμων Macrolophus pygmaeus και Macrolophus melanotoma (Hemiptera: Miridae)

2010
In the framework of modern I.P.M., predators are used more and more and the precise identification of the beneficial organism is of high importance. In Macrolophus sp. (Hemiptera: Miridae), two species Macrolophus pygmaeus (Rambur) and Macrolophus melanotoma Costa (=M.
