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

A new method for the release of Amblyseius andersoni (Acari: Phytoseiidae) in young apple orchards
The use of phytoseiid species in biological plant protection is widespread. However, the techniques used to release them differ. The possible release of Amblyseius andersoni (Chant, 1959) using a new method was tested.

Neoseiulus californicus preying on Tenuipalpus heveae
The spread of Tenuipalpus heveae Baker (Acari: Tenuipalpidae) can be controlled by managing predatory species such as Neoseiulus californicus (McGregor) (Acari: Phytoseiidae). This study aimed to evaluate the predation of N.
