BIOLOGICAL EFFICACY AND SELECTIVITY OF ACARICIDES IN PAPAYA (Carica papaya L.)
Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems, 2012 Mites are considered the second pest in importance in papaya (Carica papaya L.) in Veracruz, Mexico, caused by a general increment in pesticide use that might unbalance predatory populations.

Selective leaf surface defenses: trichomes trap herbivorous leafminers but spare parasitoid wasps
Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 4016-4025, April 2026.Hooked trichomes on kidney bean leaves selectively entrap leafminer flies but rarely affect parasitoid wasps. This morphological barrier enables pest suppression with minimal impact on beneficial insects, offering insights for breeding pest‐resistant cultivars compatible with biological control. Abstract BACKGROUND Leafminers [e.g., Liriomyza trifolii (

Habitat Modification by Grazing Lawns Reduces Soil Mite Diversity in a South African National Park
African Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 2, March 2026.ABSTRACT Soil mesofauna are an integral part of the functioning of an ecosystem. They are relatively small in body size, occur in varying habitats and operate in a range of ecological niches. Soil mites are quite sensitive to changes in their environment and contribute to several important ecosystem services in their environments.

ON THE MAINTENANCE OF GENETIC VARIATION BY DISRUPTIVE SELECTION AMONG HOSTS IN A PHYTOPHAGOUS MITE [PDF]
Evolution, 1992 The phytophagous mite Tetranychus urticae is broadly polyphagous, having been reported from hundreds of different host species in many different families (Jeppson et al., 1975). Some hosts, such as varieties of tomato and cucumber, typically cause high juvenile mortality of T.
