Screening of chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) germplasm for resistance to broad mite, Polyphagotarsonemus latus (Banks) under field conditions

Chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) is an economically important spice and vegetable crop cultivated extensively in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. However, its productivity is severely constrained by several insect and mite pests, among which the broad mite, Polyphagotarsonemus latus (Banks), is a major pest ca...

Predatory potential and functional response of Neoseiulus longispinosus (Evans) against Panonychus ulmi (Koch) reared on different apple cultivars

The European red mite, Panonychus ulmi (Koch), has emerged as a major threat to apple production globally, exacerbated by widespread pesticide resistance. This study evaluated the predatory potential and functional response of the predatory mite Neoseiulus longispinosus (Evans) against stage-specific prey densities (3–...

Combined use of Beauveria bassiana and the predatory mite Neoseiulus californicus to suppress Tetranychus urticae on greenhouse-grown sweet pepper

The findings indicate that the combined use of these biological control agents requires a well-defined sequential application strategy to maximize T. urticae suppression by the predatory mite.

Population growth and predation efficiency of three phytoseiid species fed Panonychus ulmi in Egypt

The European red mite, Panonychus ulmi (Koch), is one of the most serious pests affecting apple orchards globally, with increasing cases of resistance to conventional chemical compounds. Despite its importance, little is known about the potential of the locally Egyptian predatory mites as biological control agents agai...

Stage-specific predation and functional response of Orius insidiosus (Hemiptera: Anthocoridae) toward Diaphorina citri (Hemiptera: Psyllidae) and differential toxicity of formulated pesticide mixtures.

Overall, O. insidiosus is an efficient predator of D. citri, and further studies on its development and reproduction when preying on this pest are required.
