Vaccinating grapevines against spider mites [PDF]

California Agriculture, 1991
Central Valley grape growers can reduce damage from Pacific mites by inoculating infested vines with the less-damaging Willamette mites. Such “vaccinations” may become a useful technique for pest management.

Tetranins: new putative spider mite elicitors of host plant defense.

New Phytologist, 2019
The two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae) is a plant-sucking arthropod herbivore that feeds on a wide array of cultivated plants. In contrast to the well-characterized classical chewing herbivore salivary elicitors that promote plant defense ...

The Jean Gutierrez spider mite collection [PDF]

ZooKeys, 2015
The family Tetranychidae (spider mites) currently comprises 1,275 species and represents one of the most important agricultural pest families among the Acari with approximately one hundred pest species, ten of which considered major pests. The dataset presented in this document includes all the identified spider mites composing the Jean Gutierrez ...

Combined transcriptome and metabolome analysis identifies defence responses in spider mite-infested pepper (Capsicum annuum)

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2019
Plants regulate responses towards herbivory through fine-tuning of defence-related hormone production, expression of defence genes, and production of secondary metabolites.

Wolbachia dominate Spiroplasma in the co‐infected spider mite Tetranychus truncatus

Insect molecular biology (Print), 2019
Wolbachia and Spiroplasma are both maternally inherited endosymbionts in arthropods, and they can co‐infect the same species. However, how they interact with each other in the same host is not clear.

Arabidopsis response to the spider mite Tetranychus urticae depends on the regulation of reactive oxygen species homeostasis

Scientific Reports, 2018
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are molecules that play a prominent role in plant response to numerous stresses, including plant interactions with herbivores.

The Digestive System of the Two-Spotted Spider Mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch, in the Context of the Mite-Plant Interaction

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
The two-spotted spider mite (TSSM), Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae), is one of the most polyphagous herbivores, feeding on more than 1,100 plant species.

Dehydration Stress Contributes to the Enhancement of Plant Defense Response and Mite Performance on Barley

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Under natural conditions, plants suffer different stresses simultaneously or in a sequential way. At present, the combined effect of biotic and abiotic stressors is one of the most important threats to crop production.
