Diurnal temperature variations affect development of a herbivorous arthropod pest and its predators [PDF]
, 2015 The impact of daily temperature variations on arthropod life history remains woefully understudied compared to the large body of research that has been carried out on the effects of constant temperatures. However, diurnal varying temperature regimes more

Alternative phenotypes of male mating behaviour in the two-spotted spider mite [PDF]
Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2013 Severe intraspecific competition for mates selects for aggressive individuals but may also lead to the evolution of alternative phenotypes that do not act aggressively, yet manage to acquire matings. The two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae, shows male mate-guarding behaviour and male-male combat for available females.

Compatibility of two predator species for biological control of the two-spotted spider mite
Experimental & applied acarology, 2020 Because predators may interfere with each other, an important step towards the implementation of successful release of multiple predators in biocontrol programs requires resolving how predators respond to the presence of heterospecific competitors ...

Plant extracts with potential to control of two-spotted spider mite [PDF]
Arquivos do Instituto Biológico, 2018 ABSTRACT: Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae) is a species of great economic importance to Brazil. In its control, the main option is the use of synthetic miticides, which, if used indiscriminately, can contaminate the environment, farmers and consumers.

Settlement decisions by the two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae
Comptes Rendus. Biologies, 2013 In silk-spinning arthropods, silk can be used for web building, protection, and communication. Silk is an informative material about the presence of conspecifics. It can therefore inform on habitat suitability and hence assist in habitat choice. In this context, we investigated the influence of silk on microhabitat choice by the two-spotted spider mite,

Hop Pest Scouting Report [PDF]
, 2016 During the 2016 growing season, the major pest challenges we encountered at the hop yard at the Borderview Research Farm in Alburgh, Vermont were two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae), potato leafhopper (Empoasca fabae), and hop downy mildew ...
