Biology and Management of Mealybugs in Vineyards

2012
Economic losses resulting from vineyard mealybug infestations have increased dramatically during the past decade. In response, there has been a cosmopolitan effort to improve control strategies and better understand mealybug biology and ecology, as well as their role as vectors of plant pathogens. Mealybugs are named for the powdery secretions covering

Novel Approaches for the Management of Mealybug Pests

2009
Mealybugs (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) are small, soft-bodied plant sap-sucking insects that constitute the second largest family of scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea), with more than 2,000 described species and ca. 290 genera (Ben-Dov 2006; Downie and Gullan 2004).

Insecticide Resistance and Its Management in Mealybugs

2016
Documentation of insecticide resistance in mealybugs across the globe is very scanty. In New Zealand, mealybugs were found to develop resistance due to extensive and regular use of insecticides. The obscure mealybug Pseudococcus viburni (Signoret) was reportedly resistant to DDT, parathion –methyl and chlorpyrifos. Planococcus ficus Sign.

Evaluation of drone and ground releases of Cryptolaemus montrouzieri for mealybug (Pseudococcus maritimus) control in apples

Biological Control
In apple growing regions of Washington State (USA), mealybug outbreaks are infrequent but can be severe, especially in organic production systems. Because insecticide sprays are ineffective for this pest, management tactics are limited, and alternative ...

Managing the vine mealybug, Planococcus ficus, through pheromone-mediated mating disruption

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2019
The vine mealybug (VMB), Planococcus ficus (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae), is a key insect pest of vineyards. While pheromone-based mating disruption (MD) has been successfully tested against a wide range of insect pests, knowledge about its efficacy against key mealybug species, such as P. ficus, is scarce.

INTEGRATING CULTURAL MANAGEMENT PRACTICES AND BIOLOGICAL CONTROL TO SUPPRESS CITRUS MEALYBUG

Acta Horticulturae, 2004
The citrus mealybug, Planococcus citri (Risso) (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae), is one of the most common and damaging insect pests in greenhouses and protected cultures. Pesticides are frequently used, often unsuccessfully, to control this pest. Our objective was to determine the influence of water and nutrient management practices on mealybug populations
