Phytoseiid mites are bio-indicators of agricultural practice impact on the agroecosystem functioning: The case of weed management in citrus orchards [PDF]
, 2010 n tropical conditions, the weed management in citrus orchards is particularly problematic when the fields are not mechanized. To reduce competition between trees and weeds, the producers use herbicides in excess of the permitted annual dose, particularly

Phytoseiidae of Vietnam (Acari: Mesostigmata) with description of a new species [PDF]
Acarologia, 2020 Vietnam is a large country of Southeast Asia and a globally recognized hotspot of biodiversity. Until recently, only limited surveys had been carried out on the resident Phytoseiidae fauna and presence of 12 species had been documented, with 11 belonging to the sub-family Amblyseiinae and 1 to the sub-family Typhlodrominae.

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 6, Page 522-531, June 2025.Dicyphus hesperus, a zoophytophagous predator, effectively controls Bemisia tabaci in tomato greenhouses. Highly zoophagous lines rapidly reduced whitefly populations without causing significant damage to tomatoes, whereas lowly zoophagous lines were equally efficient over time but caused more damage.

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 6, Page 463-497, June 2025.Growing interest in optimizing biocontrol traits, particularly due to Nagoya Protocol constraints, necessitates understanding their heritability and genetic variation. This systematic review of 5209 studies on arthropod biocontrol agents yielded 94 relevant articles, with 42 providing heritability values.

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 6, June 2025.ABSTRACT Aim This paper is a response to Li and Xue (2024) regarding the global species richness and distribution of the eriophyoid mites, which are highly host‐specific phytophages. Discussion The number of described plant species is approaching 400,000. This enormous level of plant diversity has played a fundamental role in the diversification of the

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 2, Page 274-277, March 2025.ABSTRACT Echinothrips americanus Morgan (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), also known as poinsettia thrips, has invaded several parts of the world becoming an important pest in many vegetable and ornamental crops. While biological control methods using predatory mites and bugs have been effective against flower‐dwelling thrips, they have shown limited success ...
