Response of Amblyseius swirskii to deltamethrin. [PDF]

open access: yesPest Manag Sci
The analysis of toxicological and molecular data reveals target‐site as well as metabolic modifications associated with the resistance to deltamethrin in Amblyseius swirskii colonies. However, semi‐field assays show increased run‐off behavior after treatments with the same pesticide.

Parental exposure to heat waves improves offspring reproductive investment in Tetranychus urticae (Acari: Tetranychidae), but not in its predator, Phytoseiulus persimilis (Acari: Phytoseiidae). [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol, 2023
The more frequent and intense occurrence of heat waves affects many aspects of an arthropod's life, which may disturb or enhance interactions with other species, such as between a predator and its prey. Here, we assessed these effects on the reproductive output of a pest mite, Tetranychus urticae, and its natural enemy, the predatory mite, Phytoseiulus

Intraguild predation in three generalist predatory mites of the family Phytoseiidae (Acari: Phytoseiidae) [PDF]

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control, 2021
Abstract Background The predatory mites, Neoseiulus californicus (McGregor), N. barkeri (Hughes), and Amblyseius swirskii Athias-Henriot, are important predators attacking many insect and mite pests. They can coexist in the same habitat and engage in intraguild predation (IGP). Main body

Effects of agroforestry on Phytoseiidae communities (Acari: Mesostigmata) in vineyards. A synthesis of a 10-year period of observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Several species of the predatory mite family Phytoseiidae are of major economic importance for biological pest control in crops, including grapevines. Plant diversification in agrosystems is reported to enhance useful biodiversity and provide ecosystem ...

Biological control in French Guiana, Guadeloupe and Martinique [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Several biological control agents have been introduced successfully in Guyana, and / or Guadeloupe and Martinique: three tachinid dipterans and one hymenopteran for control of sugarcane borers, a ladybird and a hymenopteran parasitoid against the pink ...

Biogeographic distribution of the Phytoseiidae (Acari: Mesostigmata) [PDF]

open access: yesBiological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2008
More than 1982 species in 90 genera were included in an analysis of the biogeography of the Phytoseiidae, a family of predatory mites. Seven biogeographic regions were taken into account: Nearctic, Neotropical, Ethiopian, West Palaearctic, East Palaearctic, Oriental, and Australasian.

Pesticide use, arthropod fauna and fruit damage in apple orchards in a Nordic climate

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 79, Issue 12, Page 5292-5303, December 2023., 2023
Lepidopteran larvae, along with true bugs and aphids were shown to be important pest insects in a field study of 30 apple orchards in Norway. Pesticide applications were mainly used according to decision support systems. Furthermore, low level of IPM had negative effects on spiders.

Matching commercial thrips predating phytoseids with the highly diversified climatic conditions of different strawberry production systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Flower inhabiting thrips (Order: Thysanoptera) are a major threat to fruit quality in strawberry production around the world. As chemical control is often inefficient, alternative control measures are of broad and current interest.
