How Plants Obtain Predatory Mites as Bodyguards
Netherlands Journal of Zoology, 1987Phytophagous mites are a serious threat to their host plants; in absence of predators they tend to overexploit their food source. To prevent such a crash and maintain as much leaf area as possible host plants may defend themselves in various ways, one of which is to increase the effectiveness of natural enemies of the phytophagous mites.

Resistance to chlorpyriphos in the predatory mite Kampimodromus aberrans
Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2011The predatory mite Kampimodromus aberrans (Oudemans) is a key biocontrol agent in vineyards in Italy and Southern Europe. Its susceptibility to common pesticides (e.g., organophosphates) has been considered an important factor in preventing successful biocontrol of phytophagous mites. Nevertheless, populations of K.

Predatory Mites for Biological Control of Phytophagous Mites
2019In this chapter we present methods for rearing predatory mites of family Phytoseiidae in the laboratory and in the greenhouse. In the laboratory, the suggested method is to rear specialized phytoseiids (Type I) in artificial arenas, using the two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae as food, and to rear generalist phytoseiids (types II, III, and IV)

Predatory mites (Gamasina, Mesostigmata)
Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment, 1999Abstract Mesostigmata or Gamasida are known from a wide range of habitats. Most of them are free living predators in soil and litter, on the soil surface or on plants. Some are able to disperse rapidly by phoresy. In agroecosystems, edaphic Mesostigmata are important predators of Nematoda, Collembola and insect larvae, and those living on plants may ...

Predatory mites avoid ovipositing near counterattacking prey
Experimental & Applied Acarology, 2001Attacking prey is not without risk; predators may endure counterattack by the prey. Here, we study the oviposition behaviour of a predatory mite (Iphiseius degenerans) in relation to its prey, the western flower thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis). This thrips is capable of killing the eggs of the predator.

On a new predatory Mite of economic Importance
Bulletin of Entomological Research, 1952The biology and systematics of the predatory mites of the family Laelaptidae have received increased attention since they have been shown to be of importance in the control of phytophagous mites, especially Tetranychidae, resistant to modern insecticides.
