Contact activities of flucycloxuron on immature stages of the two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae (Koch)) and the European red mite (Panonychus ulmi (Koch)) gradually decrease in the successive developmental stages. The levels of contact activity of flucycloxuron on larvae
and protonymphs ofT. urticae andP. ulmi are of the same order. Deutonymphs ofT. urticae are less susceptible to contact activity than the similar stage ofP. ulmi. In adultT. urticae, the transovarial ovicidal activity was used as an indicator for cuticular penetration. More than 90% of the maximal penetration
into adult mites occurs within 8 h. Reversibility of the transovarial activity was not observed after 24 h, but did occur
after a subsequent 48 h stay on untreated leaves.
The ovo-larvicidal activity of flucycloxuron onP. ulmi after treatment of apple leaves is strongly negatively influenced by leaf age, partly by lower retention of the spray liquid
on the leaves. Leaf penetration was measured by application of flucycloxuron on leaf uppersides and assessment of the transovarial
activity in mites (P. ulmi orT. urticae) infested on the undersides, one day after treatment. In this test system, leaf penetration was found to be strongly species
dependent. Penetration was high in cucumber, moderate in French beans, cotton, roses and strawberry, but low in apple and
pepper. Leaf penetration in French bean plants is drastically reduced at increasing leaf age. The overall positive effect
of increase in relative air humidity on leaf penetration, is statistically highly significant (P=0.001) for French beans and
almost significant (P=0.08) for cucumbers. WithT. urticae on French bean it was found that in this test flucycloxuron needs more than one day for maximal leaf penetration.
Although in apple leaves penetration from uppersides was low, penetration from undersides was much higher. The surfactants
Arkopal N 130, Silwet L-77 and X2-5309 enhance penetration from leaf under-sides. 相似文献

A photoperiod of 8L/16D for two weeks was used to distinguish between diapausing and non-diapausingTyphlodromus pyri Scheuten. A diet ofPanonychus ulmi orTetranychus urticae, or pollen ofVicia faba did not influence preovipositional periods of diapausing mites. In mid-September, 88% ofT. pyri collected from an insectary were in diapause. The critical day-length appeared to be between 12.5 and 13.5 h. Diapause duration was greatest in mites collected in September–November, becoming progressively less in mites collected later in the winter. By mid-April, ca. 50% of mites collected from the orchard and insectary oviposited promptly when cultured in the laboratory.Typhlodromus pyri eggs and larvae were present on leaves in early May. At this time, only 4% ofP. ulmi winter eggs had hatched. Diapause terminated most quickly inT. pyri kept in an 18L/6D photoperiod, followed by 24L/0D and 0L/24D. Longest preoviposition periods were recorded for mites kept in 8L/16D photoperiods. 相似文献

The ovicides clofentezine and hexythiazox have been used in Australia againstPanonychus ulmi (Koch) since 1984 and 1987, respectively. Failure of clofentezine in the field againstP. ulmi was first reported in early 1988. In 1988–89, laboratory bioassays were carried out against susceptible reference strains, and discriminating doses for clofentezine and hexythiazox established. Suspected resistant strains were tested, as were randomly collected strains.Panonychus ulmi from 23 apple orchards in eastern Australia were found to be resistant to clofentezine, and 19 of these strains were also resistant to hexythiazox. In all cases, a total of four or more ovicide sprays had been used. Of 15 samples ofP. ulmi from blocks where less than four ovicides had been used, none were resistant to either clofentezine or hexythiazox. A survey of orchards in the Orange district of New South Wales found that 30% had received four or more ovicide sprays and were likely to experience resistance problems. The control problems with clofentezine and hexythiazox means the few remaining acaricides will be subject to extreme selection pressure. 相似文献

Influence of prey on developmental performance, reproduction and prey consumption of Neoseiulus californicus (Acari: Phytoseiidae) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The Spical strain of the predatory mite Neoseiulus californicus (McGregor) is used as a biological control agent, but little is known about its preferred prey and host plants in Japan.
Here we studied the development, reproduction and prey consumption of the Spical strain when fed on eggs of five different
spider mite species deposited on both their laboratory-rearing plant and cherry, on which all five spider mite species developed
well. The developmental periods of immature N. californicus females and males were significantly affected by the prey species they fed on, but not by the plants. No difference was found
between males and females. The developmental period was shorter on eggs of two Tetranychus species than on eggs of Panonychus ulmi. Immature females had a higher predation rate than immature males. Preoviposition period, oviposition period and the number
of eggs laid per female were not significantly affected by either the plants or the type of prey eggs. The postoviposition
period and total adult longevity were shorter on eggs of P. ulmi than of the other four prey species, but there was no effect of plant substrate. The postoviposition period of the Spical
strain was much longer than that of other N. californicus strains or other predatory mite species: the postoviposition period of the Spical strain was more than three times longer
than the oviposition period, accounting for more than 75% of the total adult longevity. This suggests that the females need
multiple mating to reach full egg load, but this remains to be tested. Total consumption by N. californicus adults was lower for eggs of P. ulmi than for eggs of the other four species, apparently because of the shorter postoviposition period when fed on eggs of P. ulmi. The intrinsic rates of natural increase (r
m) on the rearing plant did not differ among prey species, whereas those on cherry were significantly different: the value
was higher on Tetranychus urticae eggs than on eggs of other species. Only when N. californicus fed on T. urticae eggs, the r
m-values were significantly different between the rearing plant and cherry (higher on cherry). Thus, the Spical strain of N. californicus could feed on eggs of all five spider mite species, deposited on a variety of plants with similar r
m-values, suggesting that it could be successfully used to control spider mites in orchards and various crop fields of Japan. 相似文献

The developmental times and the reproduction of two resistant Italian strains ofTyphlodromus pyri Scheuten andAmblyseius andersoni (Chant) were studied in the laboratory by rearing them on the spider mitesPanonychus ulmi (Koch) andEotetranychus carpini (Oud.), on the eriophyidColomerus vitis (Pgst.) and on pollen ofMesembryanthemum criniflorum. The response ofT. pyri andA. andersoni females to a spider mite supply (P. ulmi orE. carpini) of 4, 8 and 16 adult female prey per female predator per day was also studied.Development ofT. pyri onE. carpini andC. vitis required a shorter period than onM. criniflorum pollen, while intermediate values were recorded forP. ulmi. When the highest number of prey was offered, the influence of different foods on oviposition rates ofT. pyri was not significant. An increase in spider mite supply favoured a shorter pre-oviposition period and higher oviposition rates.Development ofA. andersoni was faster on pollen than on spider mites, while intermediate values were found concerningC. vitis. Differences statistically significant were recorded for development onP. ulmi andC. vitis. Colomerus vitis proved to be the more suitable food in terms of oviposition. The oviposition rate decreased when feeding uponP. ulmi, but reached intermediate values onE. carpini andM. criniflorum. Increasing spider mite densities caused shorter pre-oviposition times and higher oviposition rates. Using a given number ofE. carpini females, rather than those ofP. ulmi, resulted in higher oviposition rates and shorter pre-oviposition times.For both predators, the results suggest a higher intrinsic rate of population increase onE. carpini orC. vitis than onP. ulmi.The research was supported by a grant from Regione Veneto (Lotta biologica ed integrata nel controllo di insetti ed acari dannosi).The general lines of the research have been planned by C. Duso. The authors contributed equally to the experimental work. 相似文献

Abstract Studies were made in an orchard near Nelson from 1974 to 1978 on integrated control of Panonychus ulmi (Koch) using the organophosphate-resistant predator Typhlodromus pyri Scheuten. Correct timing of selective acaricides during the October-January period is essential, and can be achieved by close observation of P. ulmi development. When the majority of winter eggs have hatched (late October to early November), or the majority of the summer eggs laid by the first generation (very late November to early or mid December), there is a short period when a maximum of immature mites occurs. This is before many adult females have matured, and is the most effective time for application of an acaricide such as cyhexatin. The development of P. ulmi, in particular the incubation period of the summer eggs, is controlled by temperature, and in seasons when mean temperatures are well below average in November and December the delayed mite development makes accurate timing of the December spray more difficult. Other factors which also affect mite development are the use of dormant oil, cultivar, and orchard aspect and shelter. On the block of trees where no acaricides were used since 1968, although regular applications of azinphos-methyl were made, T. pyri maintained P. ulmi at acceptable levels over the 5 years 1973-78, a maximum of P. ulmi occurring each season in January with the third generation. In three seasons the peak was well below the threshold for commercial spraying; in two seasons this threshold was exceeded, but despite the absence of acaricides P. ulmi numbers soon fell. A further experiment demonstrated the utility of mineral oil and cyhexatin as selective acaricides in integrated programmes. Cycloprate, tricyclotin, and fenbutatin oxide were shown to be as effective and selective as cyhexatin, a single application in early December giving good survival of T. pyri and season-long control of P. ulmi. In another experiment propargite was as effective and selective as cyhexatin; amitraz was more toxic to T. pyri and less persistent against P. ulmi, and resulted in a poor P. ulmi : T. pyri ratio; and chlorpyrifos, though not more toxic than cyhexatin to T. pyri, was less effective against P. ulmi. Mancozeb, and dinocap + mancozeb, used in a summer-long programme of 12 treatments, were more toxic to T. pyri than were binapacryl or dinocap alone. 相似文献

We addressed the question of persistence of predator and prey in a biological control system by examining temporal patterns ofPanonychus ulmi (Koch) and its predator,Typhlodromus pyri Scheuten at two geographic locations and at two spatial scales. At the scale of an orchard, bothP. ulmi andT. pyri were persistent over the time frame of 6 years. At the scale of an individual tree,T. pyri appeared to be more persistent than its prey,P. ulmi. We used a simulation model of single populations ofP. ulmi andT. pyri to determine which of several aspects of the biology of the two species could contribute to such a pattern. Spatial incongruity between predator and prey was essential for persistence of both species. The generalist food habit ofT. pyri probably contributes to the persistence ofT. pyri on individual trees, and may cause occasional extinction ofP. ulmi at this spatial scale. The presence of alternate food is likely an essential element for successful biological control in this system. Cannibalism byT. pyri results in higher prey densities, that is, it is detrimental to the biological control ofP. ulmi, but has no effect on the relative persistence of the two species. 相似文献

The results of laboratory studies on the life history, morphology of immature stages, effects of food and water on adult longevity,
host age preference for oviposition, parthenogenesis, and adult behavior ofTelenomus solitus Johnson are presented.Telenomus solitus completed its development in 10.8 days (egg, 0.3 day; 1st instar, 2.7 days; 2nd instar, 3.7 days; and pupa, 4.1 days). The adults lived longest when provided with both honey and water. Without food, they
survived less than 24 h. Parasitization of host eggs varied significantly with their age, being highest in 42 h old eggs.
Fewer than 10% of eggs older than 60 h were parasitized successfully. The periodicity of oviposition was unimodal; it occurred
throughout the 24 h period and peaked in the late photophase. Females ofT. solitus are arrhenotokous. The behavioral sequences during courtship, mating, and oviposition are described.

The effects of triflumuron on the mortality, fecundity, and fertility of the two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae, were evaluated in the laboratory. No differences in toxicity for larvae, protonymphs and deutonymphs were observed, but immature
stages were 3.8-times more susceptible than adults at the LC50. The compound exhibited a direct contact ovicidal activity influenced by eggs age. 48–72 hold eggs were significantly more
sensitive than eggs of the other age classes. No hatch inhibition was observed in eggs laid by treated adult females using
a sublethal dose at two physiological times (<12 and 48–72h old). However, fecundity decreased in younger treated females,
but it increased in the older-ones. The toxicity for immatures and eggs, and the sublethal effects described suggest that
triflumuron could be an interesting incorporation in integrated pest programs of T. urticae.

Biological control may provide an affordable and sustainable option for reducing losses to pest Bruchidae in stored food legumes, a crucial source of human dietary protein. Previous investigations have focused primarily on the role of parasitism in bruchid biological control, while the potential of generalist predators has been comparatively unexplored. The true bug Xylocoris flavipes (Reuter) (Heteroptera: Anthocoridae) exhibited a Type II functional response to the majority of cosmopolitan bruchid species evaluated when data were fit to Holling's disc equation. A negative correlation was detected between mean pest species body weight and rate of predation. The rate of attack on adult prey was quite low but fairly consistent, with the larger‐sized female predators generally more effective. The eggs and neonate larvae of Acanthoscelides obtectus Say (Coleoptera: Bruchidae) were the only accessible immature stages among all prey species examined; predation on A. obtectus eggs and larvae was higher than on any adult bruchids. Mean predator kill of A. obtectus immature stages was 40 first instars or 10–20 eggs per 24‐h interval. Further investigation of the biological control potential of X. flavipes against pest Bruchidae is merited due to the predator's ability to kill adult stages of all prey species evaluated. 相似文献

We have developed baseline susceptibility values for four new acaricides: bifenazate, acequinocyl, spirodiclofen and etoxazole
for eggs or adult females of a susceptible laboratory population of Panonychus ulmi (Koch) (Acari: Tetranychidae). Further, we have tested diagnostic concentrations of each acaricide against populations resistant
to organochlorine, organotin or IGR-type acaricides. Resistance to etoxazole (ca. 4-fold) was identified in populations resistant
to the IGRs clofentezine and hexythiazox.

Phytoseiulus persimilis Athias-Henriot successfully controlledTetranychus urticae Koch on rose hedges in an integrated mite control programme in two unheated plastic-covered tunnels at Cleveland in southern Queensland. Mite populations were monitored fortnightly for nearly three years in one tunnel and for two years in a second. Once established,P. persimilis quickly suppressedT. urticae and then persisted. A relatively stable, long-term, low-level interaction developed between the two species under normal commercial conditions. In one tunnel, the production (upper) level of the four rose hedges contained fewer mites of both species per compound leaf (1.71 of all stages ofT. urticae, 0.38 motiles; 0.25 of all stages ofP. persimilis, 0.12 motiles) than the maintenance (lower) layer (2.02 of all stages ofT. urticae, 0.75 motiles; 0.35 of all stages ofP. persimilis, 0.21 motiles). On 68% of sampling occasions, 10% or less of compound leaves in the production layer were infested withT. urticae (all stages including eggs) and control was excellent throughout the 30-month period afterP. persimilis was established, there being no economic losses. In the second tunnel, there was no significant difference between mite numbers in the production and maintenance layers of the two hedges examined. The overall mean number of all stages ofT. urticae per compound leaf was 3.2 (1.45 motiles), and ofP. persimilis 0.46 (0.25 motiles). Control here was slightly less effective than in the first tunnel, but was still satisfactory, with 10% or less of leaves being infested on 45.5% of sampling occasions (20% or less on 66% of sampling occasions) withT. urticae (all stages including eggs).Phytoseiulus persimilis was not reintroduced or redistributed during the course of the observations. An auxiliary miticide (clofentezine) was applied on only one occasion to selected areas in the second tunnel. The influence of high temperatures on control byP. persimilis is discussed. 相似文献

Summary Mammalian antibodies to the neuroamines, serotonin and -amino-butyric acid (GABA) and to the neuropeptides, adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) and FMRF-amide evoked a response toGoodeyus ulmi, a free-living nematode. Serotonin-like immunoreactivity was found in cell bodies in the nerve ring and in the ventral nerve cord in all developmental stages. Neurons in the vulva, implicated in egg-laying, were immunoreactive to anti-serotonin inG. ulmi females, while in males serotonergic nerve fibres was found in the spicular region. Immunoreactivity to ACTH was also seen to differ depending on the developmental stage ofG. ulmi, being present only in the ventral cord from the late L3 stage. Anti-GABA immunoreactivity was localized in two cell bodies near the amphids in all life stages and FMRF-amide immunoreactivity was seen in the nerve ring in all developmental stages. No reactivity was found with antibodies to vasointestinal peptide and somatostatin-14. 相似文献

The leaf-mining fliesHydrellia sp. andH. pakistanae Deonier were observed attacking the aquatic weedHydrilla verticillata (L.f.) L.C. (Hydrocharitaceae) in south India. Their life histories were very similar. The duration of the immature stages ofH. pakistanae was 25 to 29 days. The number of leaves ofH. verticillata mined by a single larva varied from 8 to 12. In the laboratory, adults feeding on 50% aqueous solution of honey lived for
6 to 21 days and laid an average of 26 eggs. Several overlapping generations occurred in the field except during the period
of drought. BothHydrellia sp. andH. pakistanae were heavily parasitized by the braconidsAdemon sp. nr.decrescens Nees andChaenusa sp.

The biology ofAblattaria arenaria (Kraatz) was studied in the laboratory by using a helicid snail,Xeropicta derbentina (Kyrnicki) as prey. Population development ofA. arenaria in the field was studied in 1985 and 1986.
The eggs ofA. arenaria were laid in the soil in lots of 5–45 at various intervals, and the total number of eggs per female varied from 144 to 193
during the oviposition period of 24–88 days.A. arenaria passed through the egg, 3 larval, prepupal, and pupal stages before reaching the adult stage. The mean duration of these
stages was 9.8, 3.9, 2.5, 5.9, 3.8 and 5.7 days, respectively, with a total of 31.4 days.
A. arenaria overwintered as an adult and became active and laid eggs during the spring. The start of spring activity seemed to be highly
influenced by relative humidity. High humidity resulted in early emergence from overwintering sites. There was 1 generation
in 1985, but 2 population peaks occurred in 1986. Immature stages of the 2nd generation became adult before the beginning
of aestivation. Activity of the beetles was stopped by the beginning of hot weather in June, which synchronized well with
the beginning of snail aestivation.

To understand the influence of four mulberry varieties on the development and reproduction of the European red spider mite, Panonychus ulmi (Koch) (Prostigmata: Tetranychidae), age-stage two-sex life tables of P. ulmi on Goshoerami, KNG, Chinese white and Rokokuyaso varieties were constructed under ambient laboratory conditions during summer season of the year with an average temperature of 26.22 ± 2.23 °C, relative humidity of 70 ± 5% and photoperiod of 14:10 h (L: D). Panonychus ulmi developed comparatively better on KNG and Goshoerami varieties than the other two varieties, as indicated by high fecundity (45.05 ± 1.89 and 41.23 ± 1.66 eggs female?1, respectively) and intrinsic rate of increase (0.165 ± 0.01 and 0.168 ± 0.03 day?1, respectively). Lowest intrinsic rate of increase (r) was observed on Chinese white and Rokokuyaso (0.055 ± 0.03 and 0.057 ± 0.10 day?1, respectively). Total development time of immature females was shortest on KNG than on the other varieties. Immature survival was significantly higher on KNG and Goshoerami varieties (76.76 ± 7.59 and 72.96 ± 8.21%, respectively) and was lower on Chinese white and Rokokuyaso (46.76 ± 9.00 and 43.32 ± 8.71%, respectively). Based on all the above parameters, KNG and Goshoerami were found as most suitable varieties for P. ulmi than Chinese white and Rokokuyaso. 相似文献

The predacious mite,Amblyseius gossipi El-Badry completed life cycle when fed on the tomato erineum mite,Eriophyes lycopersici (Wolffenstein) in the laboratory. The durations of the immature stages and of the adult stage were determined. Immature stages ofA. gossipi consumed in total an average of 57E. lycopersici, whereas each day throughout her life, the adult female consumed an average of 91E. lycopersici. While feeding on this prey,A. gossipi laid 2.7 eggs per day. 相似文献

Functional response of Euseius finlandicus and Amblyseius andersoni to Panonychus ulmi on apple and peach leaves in the laboratory 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The functional response of adult females of the predatory mites Euseius (Amblyseius) finlandicus and Amblyseius andersoni to larvae and adult females of the fruit tree red spider mite Panonychus ulmi was determined on apple and peach leaf disks in the laboratory at 25°C and 16:8 (L:D). For adult females of P. ulmi the predation efficiency of E. finlandicus was higher on peach than on apple, whereas that of A. andersoni was higher on apple than on peach. Efficiency of predation on larvae of P. ulmi by either predator did not differ significantly between apple and peach. On both plants, A. andersoni had a higher predation rate than E. finlandicus on larvae of P. ulmi. It is concluded that in the laboratory the host plant has a substantial effect on predation efficiency of A. andersoni and E. finlandicus when they preyed on adults but not when they preyed on larvae of P. ulmi. 相似文献
