The hypersensitive reaction induced by the eriophyid miteAceria cladophthirus (Nalepa) on detached leaves ofSolanum dulcamara L. did not protect them against subsequent attacks by the spider miteTetranychus urticae Koch. This reaction stimulated the oviposition ofT. urticae; the increase of fecundity was about 40%. As the survival rate and the life-cycle were not affected, higher populations ofT. urticae developed on leaves previously infested byA. cladophthirus than on healty ones. The hypersensitive reaction caused by members of one family of phytophagous mites induced an increased susceptibility to attacks by mites of an unrelated family. 相似文献

The gall miteAceria cladophthirus (Nalepa) is able to survice outside its gall on detached leaves ofSolanum dulcamara L. kept under non-aseptic in-vitro conditions. The survival rate of the females on susceptible leaves is about 90% after 1 day and 85% for the following days. In contrast, on resistant leaves, less than 40$ survive after 1 day while necrotic local lesions develop and later the mortality increases severely. However, the mite only completes its life-cycle on susceptible leaves. The life-cycle forA. cladophthirus takes about 12 days: six days for egg incubation and six days for two instars growth. Its life-history is simple, without alternating females specialised for hibernation; arrhenotokous parthenogenesis occurs in experimental conditions. Eggs do not play any role in gall formation. Immature stages induce gall symptoms but are less efficient than females. Mite feeding only induces complete gall symptoms on the less differentiated leaves of susceptible shoots. On susceptible detached leaves, gall symptoms are similar but weaker and their intensity decreases with increasing leaf age; fully expanded leaves remain free of symptoms.On resistant plants, mite feeding induces a hypersensitive response: necrotic local lesions, about 350 m in diameter, appear both on shoots and on detached leaves. However, young leaves develop smaller lesions than old ones. Females induce larger lesions than first larvae. Once necrosis formation is initiated, it proceeds to completion regardless of the duration of mite feeding. 相似文献

In Italian nurseries and young groves of evergreen cypress(Cupressus sempervirens L.), the eriophyoid miteTrisetacus juniperinus (Nal.) is considered a very serious pest. A rating system of damage symptoms was developed to investigate the susceptibility
of different cypress seedling families to the mite. Based on this system, the seedlings were evaluated for three years in
the nursery and in two field locations after transplanting. Data obtained in the nursery allowed the cypress families to be
allocated to at least two different levels of susceptibility. These levels of susceptibility were generally also maintained
in the field. However, the environmental conditions of the two transplanting localities significantly affected the susceptibility
of each family. In all families, scores for each of the damage categories were strongly correlated positively to each other
and negatively with the average increment in the height of plant over the duration of the field experiment. Assessment of
the intensity of the symptoms peculiar to damage category A (buds enlarged, deformed, russet and/or branch apex folded) was
sufficient to give the same susceptibility evaluation as if data for all damage categories were used. The evaluation of susceptibility
on the basis of injury pattern may return very useful information for selection and certification of families of known susceptibility
to eriophyoid mites.

The nature of the damage caused by eriophyoid mites and the assessment of yield losses still require detailed studies if appropriate control and risk mitigation strategies are to be planned. The economic importance of eriophyoid mites is increasing worldwide and a lot of species have reached a permanent pest status in certain crops, while others represent a quarantine threat for several countries. Due to their relevant role in Europe and elsewhere, three eriophyoid mites that have been frequently reported in recent research, are here considered as case studies: two of them (the apple rust mite, Aculus schlechtendali, and the grape rust mite, Calepitrimerus vitis) colonise temperate fruits, while one (the tomato russet mite, Aculops lycopersici) affects vegetables. The damage assessment related to the apple rust mite has been evaluated on different apple varieties with implications for pest control. Some factors affecting the spread and economic importance of the grape rust mite have been identified. The complexity and difficulty in controlling the tomato russet mite by chemicals enhances the interest in biological control agents. Considerations on interactions between eriophyoids and host plants (e.g. resistance, varietal susceptibility), on pest management regimes (e.g. impact of fungicides, resistance to acaricides, perspectives on biological control) are presented. 相似文献

Being minute in size, eriophyoid mites can reach places that are small enough to be inaccessible to their predators. The coconut
mite, Aceria guerreronis, is a typical example; it finds partial refuge under the perianth of the coconut fruit. However, some predators can move
under the perianth of the coconut fruits and attack the coconut mite. In Sri Lanka, the phytoseiid mite Neoseiulus baraki, is the most common predatory mite found in association with the coconut mite. The cross-diameter of this predatory mite
is c. 3 times larger than that of the coconut mite. Nevertheless, taking this predator’s flat body and elongated idiosoma into
account, it is—relative to many other phytoseiid mites—better able to reach the narrow space under the perianth of infested
coconut fruits. On uninfested coconut fruits, however, they are hardly ever observed under the perianth. Prompted by earlier
work on the accessibility of tulip bulbs to another eriophyoid mite and its predators, we hypothesized that the structure
of the coconut fruit perianth is changed in response to damage by eriophyoid mites and as a result predatory mites are better
able to enter under the perianth of infested coconut fruits. This was tested in an experiment where we measured the gap between
the rim of the perianth and the coconut fruit surface in three cultivars (‘Sri Lanka Tall’, ‘Sri Lanka Dwarf Green’ and ‘Sri
Lanka Dwarf Green × Sri Lanka Tall’ hybrid) that are cultivated extensively in Sri Lanka. It was found that the perianth-fruit
gap in uninfested coconut fruits was significantly different between cultivars: the cultivar ‘Sri Lanka Dwarf Green’ with
its smaller and more elongated coconut fruits had a larger perianth-fruit gap. In the uninfested coconut fruits this gap was
large enough for the coconut mite to creep under the perianth, yet too small for its predator N. baraki. However, when the coconut fruits were infested by coconut mites, the perianth-rim-fruit gap was not different among cultivars
and had increased to such an extent that the space under the perianth became accessible to the predatory mites. 相似文献

Although Eriophyoidea is one of the most important phytophagous mite taxa owing to its negative impact on plants, reports
on associations between occurrences of eriophyoid species are scarce. The aim of this paper is to test the hypothesis that
the occurrence of one species is correlated with the occurrence of another in some predictive manner. Analyses are carried
out for two popular coniferous trees in Poland, i.e., Norway spruce (Picea abies) and Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris). Observations were made in four locations in Poland, from three age groups of trees, namely adult trees (thirty 15-cm shoot
samples from each of ten trees), young trees (ten 15-cm shoot samples from each of ten trees) and seedlings (100 whole-seedling
samples). The associations were estimated by Yule’s V index. Among four eriophyoid species observed on Scots pine, and the same number of species on Norway spruce, in general
no association pattern was observed. It means that their occurrence is independent. The most likely explanation for the absence
of co-occurrence is the abundance of microhabitats on coniferous trees for eriophyoid mites, combined with the low mite density
on these plant hosts. 相似文献

Suitability of different mite prey for the development of the predatory mite,Phytoseiulus persimilis
Development of the phytoseiid mitePhytoseiulus persimilis Athias-Henriot was studied when fed on three mite species as prey. The tenuipalpid mite,Brevipalpus pulcher (Canestrini & Fanzago), is an unsuitable prey forP. persimilis as predatory larvae reared on any stages developed to the protonymphal stage only. WhenP. persimilis larvae were reared on the eriophyid mite,Eriophyes dioscoridis Soliman & Abou-Awad, only a few developed to adulthood, but failed to oviposit. On the contrary, predatory larvae fed on the tetranychid mite,Tetranychus urticae Koch, matured in a significantly shorter period and resulting females exhibited a high rate of reproduction. 相似文献

The exotic predaceous mite,Phytoseiulus persimilis Athias-Henriot and the 2 native onesPhytoseius finitimus Ribaga andAmblyseius gossipi Elbadry were released on greenhouse cucumber plants in Egypt to examine their efficiency to control the twospotted spider
miteTetranychus urticae Koch.P. persimilis proved to be sufficiently effective for the twospotted spider mite control under greenhouse conditions in Egypt. The 2 before-mentioned
native predators were lost soon after release in the greenhouse although they are key mite predators on outdoor crops in this
area.

Survival and reproductive rate of mites in relation to resistance of their barn swallow hosts 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A. P. Møller 《Oecologia》2000,124(3):351-357
Parasite resistance may act via a number of different mechanisms that regulate or control the survival and the reproductive
rate of parasites. Observations and experiments were used to test for effects of host resistance on parasite survival and
rate of reproduction. Natural levels of infestation of barn swallow Hirundo rustica nests by the tropical fowl mite Ornithonyssus bursa were positively related to brood size, inversely related to the length of the outermost tail feathers of male nest owners
(a secondary sexual character) and affected by time of reproduction by the host. A mite inoculation experiment, in which 50
adult mites were introduced into nests during the laying period of the host, was used to test for differential survival and
reproduction of mites as a function of host resistance. The relationship between survival and reproduction of parasites, male
tail length and host resistance was investigated. There was a negative relationship between mite numbers per nest after fledging
of nestlings and male tail length. This relationship was mainly caused by a reduction in the number of mites in the first
and second nymph stage with increasing tail length of male hosts, implying a reduction in rate of reproduction of mites. The
proportion of mites that had recently fed was inversely related to tail length of male hosts. The proportion of nymph stages
was positively related to the proportion of mites that had recently had a blood meal. Parasite resistance of barn swallows
to the tropical fowl mite thus appeared to act through increased mortality rate of adult and nymph stages of mites, and through
reduced reproductive rates of mites on resistant hosts. This is the first study demonstating a direct relationship between
fitness components of a parasite and the expression of a secondary sexual character of a host.

A deterministic model of the European red mitePanonychus ulmi (Koch) and its predatorTyphlodromus pyri Scheuten is presented. The model is driven by daily maximum and minimum temperatures, and requires the per-leaf densities of both mites in spring to start each simulation. It was successful at predicting the general change in mite populations, and the peak prey density, but deviations from field results occurred at low prey density. Simulations have suggested that the present miticide spray thresholds used in New Zealand are too conservative and have also provided further insight into integrated control ofP. ulmi. 相似文献

In trials conducted in a mushroom crop grown in commercial growing bags and inoculated with the dipteran pest,Lycoriella solani, and/or the predatory miteParasitus bituberosus, the mite reduced adult pest numbers ty 50–66%. It also reduced the numbers of larvalHeteropeza pygmaea, a second dipteran pest which occurred as a contaminant in one trial. Fewer mites were extracted towards the end of the cropping period. No evidence was found of an oscillating relationship between predator and prey over the trial period. Crop yield was increased by 18% and unsaleable yield was reduced by 50%. It is suggested that the mite can contribute to an integrated pest management system. 相似文献

The eriophyoid mite, Acalitus essigi (Hassan), is hypothesised to be responsible for redberry disease of blackberry (Rubus fruticosus L. agg.) fruit. Infested fruit ripen unevenly with affected drupelets becoming hard, inedible and bright red, whereas unaffected drupelets ripen evenly. As a first step toward possible control of this disease, the method and timing of dispersal of A. essigi onto developing blackberry fruit was examined. No mites were found on unopened flower buds or open flowers. However, infestation of fruit was found to commence during the green stage of fruit development and significantly increase during the red fruit stage. Although redberry symptoms were not observed, experimental exclusion of A. essigi to prevent the mite moving up the pedicel of open flowers by a sticky barrier significantly reduced A. essigi populations within the resultant fruit by over five fold that of control fruit. Although very low levels of aerial dispersal onto fruit cannot be discounted it was concluded that non-aerial or crawling dispersal via the fruit pedicel was the dominant method of blackberry fruit infestation. 相似文献

This review is a comprehensive study of recent advances related to cytological, biochemical and physiological changes induced in plants in response to eriophyoid mite attack. It has been shown that responses of host plants to eriophyoids are variable. Most of the variability is due to individual eriophyoid mite–plant interactions. Usually, the direction and intensity of changes in eriophyoid-infested plant organs depend on mite genotype, density, or the feeding period, and are strongly differentiated relative to host plant species, cultivar, age and location. Although the mechanisms of changes elicited by eriophyoid mites within plants are not fully understood, in many cases the qualitative and quantitative biochemical status of mite-infested plants are known to affect the performance of consecutive herbivorous arthropods. In future, elucidation of the pathways from eriophyoid mite damage to plant gene activation will be necessary to clarify plant responses and to explain variation in plant tissue damage at the feeding and adjacent sites. 相似文献

The effects of attack by the three predaceous mite speciesPhytoseiulus persimilis Athias-Henriot,Phytoseius finitimus Ribaga andAmblyseius gossipi Elbadry on the development, reproduction and mortality of the two-spotted spider miteTetranyschus urticae Koch were evaluated after the prey larvae being exposed to attack by these predators for limited periods. Development of the surviving prey immatures was significantly prolonged; this influence was more distinctive when prey larvae were exposed to the predators for a longer period. The number of prey adults which died early was positively correlated with the length of the feeding period allowed to the predators. A substantial reduction in the number of eggs deposited by the prey females was noted, although the oviposition by the prey females was noted, although the oviposition period and adult longivity were not significantly affected. 相似文献

Abstract: In this study the effectiveness of the sticky tape method of eriophyoid mite extraction (H arvey and M artin , J. Econ. Entomol. 81, 731–734, 1988) was evaluated with and without the addition of a new method – a supplementary synthetic pyrethroid spray – for estimating the critical abundance of eriophyoid mites from within architecturally complex plant structures. To do so the eriophyoid mite, Acalitus essigi (Hassan) was sampled from within the architecturally complex fruit of blackberries ( Rubus fruticosus L. aggregate). Even though damage symptoms were not observed, sticky tape extraction supplemented with a synthetic pyrethroid spray was the significantly most successful method of mite extraction, with on average over twice the number of mites extracted from blackberry fruit using this method compared with sticky tape alone. Visual counts of A. essigi on the receptacle region of blackberry fruit were correlated to the number of mites extracted using the sticky tape method both with and without a spray treatment. However, due to the low numbers that were visually assessed, the use of visual methods alone appears limited. 相似文献

The insect juvenile-hormone analogue fenoxycarb (ethyl [2-(phenoxyphenoxy) ethyl] carbamate) has been shown to stimulate egg production in the flour miteAcarus siro L. Incorporation of fenoxycarb into mite food at 10 mg kg–1 and 100 mg kg–1 increased egg production by 43% and 99%, respectively. In addition, total mite populations were significantly higher in fenoxycarb-treated media than in controls. These results are discussed in relation to the possible gonadotropic role of juvenilehormone-like molecules in mites, and to the use of fenoxycarb as a grain protectant. 相似文献

Cold-hardiness was studied in the predatory miteAmblyseius potentillae (Garman) by determining the mortality after exposure to –5°C. Predators reared under diapause-inducing conditions were more cold-resistant than mites that had been kept under long-day conditions. An acclimatization period at 4°C prior to exposure to sub-zero temperatures had a positive effect on the cold-hardiness of the predator, and was remarkable in diapausing mites.Lower temperatures during diapause induction had a positive effect on cold resistance in this predator; mites in which diapause was induced at 15°C were more cold-resistant than mites that had been subjected to short-day conditions at 18 and 20°C.A day/night temperature rhythm did not increase the cold-hardiness of the mite when grown under long-day conditions. Such a rhythm did increase the cold-hardiness of the diapausing predator when given a short acclimatization period, but this effect disappeared after longer acclimatization periods. 相似文献
