Adaptation of acaricide stress facilitates Tetranychus urticae expanding against Tetranychus cinnabarinus in China [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution, 2017
AbstractThe two‐spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae, and the carmine spider mite, Tetranychus cinnabarinus, are invasive and native species in China, respectively. Compared with T. cinnabarinus, T. urticae has expanded into most parts of China and has become the dominant species of spider mite since 1983, when it was first reported in China ...

Tetranychus urticae changes its oviposition pattern in the presence of the predatory mites, Phytoseiulus persimilis and Typhlodromus bagdasarjani

Acta Biologica, 2019
Oviposition behaviors in herbivorous mites are affected by several factors i.e. food availability for juveniles and reduced predation risks. We used the twospotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch (Tetranychidae) to find out whether the previous ...

Local adaptation of aboveground herbivores towards plant phenotypes induced by soil biota [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Soil biota may trigger strong physiological responses in plants and consequently induce distinct phenotypes. Plant phenotype, in turn, has a strong impact on herbivore performance.

Trade‐offs in thermal response: Schizotetranychus brevisetosus winter eggs outperform summer eggs at low temperatures

Physiological Entomology, EarlyView.
We investigated maternal effects in Schizotetranychus brevisetosus (Tetranychidae), where females oviposit summer and winter eggs in response to photoperiod on evergreen hosts. Developmental rates of immature individuals increased linearly from 15°C to 35°C, but winter and summer eggs developed faster at low and high temperatures, respectively ...

Twospotted Spider Mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch (Arachnida: Acari: Tetranychidae)

EDIS, 2003
The twospotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch, has been controversial in its taxonomic placement. About 60 synonyms included under this species have compounded the controversy.

Resistance status of the carmine spider mite, Tetranychus cinnabarinus and the twospotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae to selected acaricides on strawberries. [PDF]

, 2015
The carmine spider mite, Tetranychus cinnabarinus (Boisduval) and the twospotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch, are serious pests of strawberries and many other horticultural crops.

Targeted mutagenesis using CRISPR-Cas9 in the chelicerate herbivore Tetranychus urticae

bioRxiv, 2019
The use of CRISPR-Cas9 has revolutionized functional genetic work in many organisms, including more and more insect species. However, successful gene editing or genetic transformation has not yet been reported for chelicerates, the second largest group ...

Effects of Alternative Prey Density on Cannibalism in Adult Female Neoseiulus californicus

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Using two strains of N. californicus—TU (reared long‐term on T. urticae) and OB (reared long‐term on O. bakeri)—this study demonstrated that although alternative prey density had no significant effect on cannibalism, both rearing strain and conspecific life stage significantly influenced cannibalistic behavior, with a significant interaction between ...

Conned by the enemy: the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae lures and kills Drosophila suzukii

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 4595-4606, May 2026.
Highly pathogenic isolates of Metarhizium anisopliae attracted Drosophila suzukii. Identifying the responsible compounds for this attraction could help the development of these isolates for pest monitoring and overall pest management. Abstract BACKGROUND Drosophila suzukii, commonly known as spotted wing drosophila (SWD), is a highly invasive and ...

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]

Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2006
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
