The SELCTV database : the susceptibility of arthropod natural enemies to agricultural pests to pesticides

Creator:: Theiling, Karen M.
Abstract:: Documentation of the side effects of pesticides on arthropod natural enemies has expanded rapidly since the 1950's as part of an increase in non-target side effects literature. Most reviews have been based on empirical analysis of selected literature. The SELCTV database was developed to make a larger information base accessible...

Responses of males to a pheromone blend of female Oriental fruit moth with and without E8, E10-dodecadien-1-ol, a pheromone component of codling moth (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)

Creator:: Allred, Darin B.
Abstract:: E8,E10-dodecadien-1-ol, the primary component of the female sex pheromone of codling moth, Cydia pomonella L., has no attraction to male Oriental fruit moth (OFM), C. molesta (Busck). However, this compound when added to the OFM pheromone blend of Z8-dodecenyl acetate (85.5%), E8-dodecenyl acetate (5.5%), and Z8- dodecen -1 -ol (9.0%),...

Interspecific predation and cannibalism of immatures by adult female Metaseiulus occidentalis, Typhlodromus pyri (Acari: Phytoseiidae) and Zetzellia mali Schueten (Acari: Stigmaeidae)

Creator:: MacRae, Ian Vance, 1958-
Abstract:: Interspecific predation and cannibalism and associated rates of oviposition were assessed for adult female Metaseiulus occidentalis (Nesbitt) and Typhlodromus pyri Scheuten when provided non-limiting amounts of either eggs, larvae, protonymphs, or deutonymphs. Tests with all four stages of phytoseiids and larvae of Tetranychus urticae Koch were carried out at 25°C....

Within and between plant dispersal and distributions of adult females and immatures of Neoseiulus californicus and N. fallacis (Acari: Phytoseiidae) in bean and apple plant systems

Creator:: Pratt, Paul D. (Paul David), 1970-
Abstract:: Intra- and interplant movement and dispersal of the predator mites Neoseiulus californicus (McGregor) and Neoseiulus fallacis (Garman) were studied on both lima bean (Phaseolus lunatus L.) and apple (Malus pumila Miller) branch plant systems that were seeded with excess numbers of the spider mite Tetranychus urticae Koch. Individuals of either...

Ambulatory and aerial dispersal among specialist and generalist phytoseiid mites

Creator:: Jung, Chuleui
Abstract:: Specialist and generalist phytoseiid mites are widely used for biological control of spider mites. Understanding dispersal attributes of these mites is important to implementing more stable, cost-efficient integrated pest management. In this regard, we studied dispersal of phytoseiid mites from a local ambulatory phase of movement within a prey patch...

Spatial patterns of predaceous and phytophagous apple mites (Acari : Eriophyidae, phytoseiidae, Stigmaeidae, Tetranychidae) : intra- and interspecific relationships

Creator:: Slone, Daniel H.
Abstract:: Aggregation and species association of 9 species of phytophagous and predaceous mites were studied for 6 yr in an orchard with 100, 2 m tall 'Red Delicious' apple trees. To quantify aggregation, a method was developed that is powerful, and easily interpreted. It relates the proportion of habitat occupied to...

Biological control of spider mites by the predatory mite Neoseiulus fallacis (Acari: Phytoseiidae) in ornamental nursery systems

Creator:: Pratt, Paul D.
Abstract:: We identified and evaluated a phytoseiid predator as a biological control agent of multiple spider mites pests that occur in ornamental nurseries. When comparing species, Neoseiulus fallacis (Garman) had a wider prey range than Galendromus occidentalis (Nesbitt), a higher probability of overwintering than Neoseiulus califomicus McGregor and was equally or...

Biological control of spider mites (Acari: Tetranychidae) on grape emphasizing regional aspects

Creator:: Prischmann, Deirdre A.
Abstract:: During summer of 1998 and 1999, 34 and 10 vineyard sites, respectively, were sampled to assess spider mite pests and associated biological control by phytoseiid mites. Vineyards studied spanned five major valleys in western Oregon where grape production occurs. Leaf samples were taken from site perimeters and centers. One leaf...
