During the 2005-2007, we identified six species of predatory mites in the integrated and an ecological orchard: Phytoseius echinus, Phytoseius macropilis, Euseius finlandicus, Typhlodromus pyri, Paraseiulus triporus and Amblyseius andersoni.

Herbicide residues in soil disrupt plant–insect signalling, reducing the effectiveness of biological pest control. Abstract Plants under herbivore attack emit distinct blends of herbivore‐induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) which serve as signalling cues for predatory insects.

Noah's Raven, Noah's Son: The Metamorphoses of Blackness in Early Modern Readings of Genesis 8‐9
ABSTRACT Over the past half‐century, scholars have offered various theories to explain when and how an aetiology for black skin became part of the reception history of the so‐called Curse of Ham in Genesis 9—a text that does not include any reference to skin colour.

Beneficial Predators: Predatory Mites
Predatory mites can provide natural pest control by eating unwanted pests. These beneficial mites are one way to maintain pest populations at non-damaging levels, known as biological control.

Predatory mites (Arachnida: Phytoseiidae) in Slovenia
Namen diplomske naloge je predstavitev vrst plenilskih pršic iz družine Phytoseiidae, ki so bile do sedaj najdene v Sloveniji, s posebnim poudarkom na njihovem pomenu v varstvu rastlin.

Biological control is widely regarded as a sustainable and eco-friendly approach to pest management. However, the use of acaricides may occasionally be required as a supplementary measure.

The efficacy of the fungus Lecanicillium lecanii and two bacteria, Bacillus thuringiensis and Streptomyces avermitilis against the two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae Koch and side effects on its predatory mite Phytoseiulus persimilis A.-H. was

ABSTRACT Biological control in high tunnel systems can be optimised by matching predator species to seasonal environmental conditions. We evaluated the predatory efficacy of syrphid flies (Toxomerus marginatus (Say), Eupeodes americanus (Fabricius)) and lacewings (Chrysoperla carnea (Stephens), Chrysoperla rufilabris (Burmeister)) across laboratory ...

Hairy Roadblock: Stem Trichomes Impede Herbivore Movement in a Species and Instar‐Dependent Manner
ABSTRACT Plants have evolved to deploy a vast set of defence mechanisms against insect herbivores, including physical barriers like leaf trichomes with pre and post ingestive effects. Yet, the role of stem trichomes in plant‐herbivore interactions, particularly mobility dynamics, is poorly understood.

The persistence of generalist predatory mites in scarcity or absence of prey is a requirement for successful biocontrol of herbivore mites. Pollen is an alternative food for generalist predatory mites.
