Sulfur can suppress mite predators in vineyards

California Agriculture, 1997
The Pacific spider mite and the Willamette spider mite are the most common mite pests on grapevines. A single-season study of a vineyard near Madera showed that regular sulfur applications for powdery mildew control can exacerbate spider mite problems in

R2R3 MYB‐dependent auxin signalling regulates trichome formation, and increased trichome density confers spider mite tolerance on tomato

Plant Biotechnology Journal, 2020
Summary Unicellular and multicellular tomato trichomes function as mechanical and chemical barriers against herbivores. Auxin treatment increased the formation of II, V and VI type trichomes in tomato leaves.

Transcriptional and metabolite analysis reveal a shift in direct and indirect defences in response to spider-mite infestation in cucumber (Cucumis sativus)

Plant Molecular Biology, 2020
Cucumber plants adapt their transcriptome and metabolome as result of spider mite infestation with opposite consequences for direct and indirect defences in two genotypes.

Variation in the microbiome of the spider mite Tetranychus truncatus with sex, instar, and endosymbiont infection.

FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2020
Most arthropod-associated bacterial communities play a crucial role in host functional traits, whose structure could be dominated by endosymbionts. The spider mite Tetranychus truncatus is a notorious agricultural pest harboring various endosymbionts ...

The Beneficial Endophytic Fungus Fusariumsolani Strain K Alters Tomato Responses Against Spider Mites to the Benefit of the Plant

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Beneficial microorganisms are known to promote plant growth and confer resistance to biotic and abiotic stressors. Soil-borne beneficial microbes in particular have shown potential in protecting plants against pathogens and herbivores via the elicitation

Cooperative Behaviors in Group-Living Spider Mites [PDF]

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Cooperative behaviors are evolutionary stable if the direct and/or indirect fitness benefits exceed the costs of helping. Here we discuss cooperation and behaviors akin to cooperation in subsocial group-living species of two genera of herbivorous spider mites (Tetranychidae), i.e., the largely polyphagous Tetranychus spp.

Reppelency to spider mite mediated by the gene mi and by the synergism between high foliar contents of acylsugar and zingiberene in tomato

Bioscience Journal, 2018
Tomato fruits (Solanum Lycopersicum) are intended for human consumption in its in natura or industrially processed form. However, the expansion of its cultivation area has favored the emergence of pests, such as spider mite (Tetranychus urticae), which ...
