Plant essential oils (EOs) represent a potentially effective, safe, and eco‐friendly alternative to synthetic pesticides that cause negative effects for human health and the environment. The present study evaluated in airtight glass chambers the toxicity of vapours produced by EOs obtained from sweet gale, balsam poplar, Labrador tea, jack pine, and ...

Acaricide resistance and genetic affinities of some selected populations of Tetranychus urticae Koch in New Zealand : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science (Horticultural) in Entomology at Massey University [PDF]
A study of resistance to acaricides in a number of populations of the two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae, in New Zealand had been carried out.

Biology and Predation of Phytoseiulus macropilis on Tetranychus urticae
Phytoseiulus macropilis (Banks) was studied in the laboratory to determine its potential rate of population increase when fed on eggs of Tetranychus urticae Koch. The shortest developmental period was 4.7 days for males, and 5.8 days for females reared at 27 + 2?C and 90% + 5% RH under 12L:12D.

Physiological resistance alters behavioral response of Tetranychus urticae to acaricides [PDF]
AbstractMultiple acaricide resistance in Tetranychus urticae continues to threaten crop production globally, justifying the need to adequately study resistance for sustainable pest management. Most studies on acaricide resistance have focused on the acute contact toxicity of acaricides with little or no information on the behavioral responses elicited ...

Evaluation of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) accessions (cultivars and lines) against the two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae Koch.) and kanzawa spider mite (T. kanzawai Kishida, Acari: Tetranychidae) [PDF]
Forty three cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) accessions (cultivars and lines) were tested against the two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae Koch) and kanzawa spider mite (Tetranychus kanzawai Kishida). The highest number of T. urticae and T. kanzawai

Effects of spirodiclofen on the reproductive potential of two-spotted spider mite (Acari: Tetranychidae) ovipositing females [PDF]
A laboratory bioassay was conducted to evaluate the effects of spirodiclofen on the survival and reproduction of young and mated females of two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae Koch).

ABSTRACT Global warming is a cause for concern and is predicted to diversely affect agricultural systems. One aspect of the predicted effects is the susceptibility of pests to chemical pesticides. It is therefore crucial to study the reaction of pests to different pesticide compounds under different temperatures in order to better predict how those ...

Fitness costs of key point mutations that underlie acaricide target-site resistance in the two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae [PDF]
The frequency of insecticide/acaricide target-site resistance is increasing in arthropod pest populations and is typically underpinned by single point mutations that affect the binding strength between the insecticide/acaricide and its target-site ...

Citrus defense responses against Tetranychus urticae [PDF]
En la presente tesis doctoral se han estudiado los mecanismos de defensa de cítricos frente al ataque de T. urticae a diferentes niveles. En primer lugar se analizaron los mecanismos de defensa directa utilizando dos patrones con diferente nivel de susceptibilidad.
