Outlook on Agriculture, 1974
Spider mites are a continuous potential danger in many crops, because of their ability to develop resistance to chemicals which initially give effective control. The predictive value of laboratory experiments with new chemicals appears to be rather limited.

Mite Vaccinations for Sustainable Management of Spider Mites in Vineyards
Ecological Applications, 1997We have successfully released phytophagous Willamette mites into Zinfandel vineyards that have had chronic problems with the economically more damaging Pacific spider mites. These releases induced resistance in the grapevines, causing smaller populations of Pacific mites and higher berry sugar concentrations.

Abstract Insects are often a major obstacle to the successful production of cucurbits. They can severely reduce yield, injure or kill plants, spread disease and adversely affect fruit quality. Spider mites can also be a problem, particularly with glasshouse cucumbers.

Spider Mites Avoid Plants with Predators
Experimental & Applied Acarology, 1999While searching for food, prey can use cues associated with their predators to select patches with a reduced predation risk. In many cases, odours indicate the presence of both food and predators. Spider mites are known to use odours to locate food and mates, but also to avoid interspecific competitors. We studied the response of the two-spotted spider

Temperature and sex allocation in a spider mite
Oecologia, 2003Although temperature is the most important environmental factor regulating arthropod development and reproduction, its influence on sex allocation in haplodiploid arthropods remains largely unexplored. We investigated under laboratory conditions how maternal age and temperature mediate offspring sex ratio of the spider mite Tetranychus mcdanieli (Acari:

Spider Mites of Japan: Their Biology and Control
Experimental & Applied Acarology, 2000Spider mite biology and control in Japan were reviewed. Seventy-eight spider mite species of 16 genera (Family Tetranychidae) have been recorded in Japan. Several of the species recently described were separated from a species complex comprising strains with different ecological performance such as host range.

Insecticide and Acaricide Tests, 1989
Abstract Two acaricide tests were applied to cotton, planted 6 Apr (Shafter, Calif.) and 15 Apr (Five Points, Calif.) with individual plots 16 (Shafter) or 8 (Five Points) rows wide by 150 ft long and replicated 4 times in a randomized complete block design.
