A cultura da cana-de-açúcar ( Saccharum officinarum L.) está amplamente distribuída no mundo e no Brasil. Neste País, os maiores estados produtores desta cultura estão localizados nas regiões Centro-Sul e Nordeste. Dados da CONAB (2015) revela que a atual área cultivada com cana-de- açúcar no Brasil é de aproximadamente 9 milhões de hectares. São Paulo é o maior produtor com 52% (4,7 milhões de hectares) da área plantada. Na região Nordeste, Alagoas destaca-se com o primeiro produtor, sendo essa atividade agrícola uma das principais do estado, a qual ocupa uma vasta área. As áreas de plantios se caracterizam por comporem os melhores solos em termos de estrutura e fertilidade. Portanto, o conhecimento da acarofauna da cana-de-açúcar é de fundamental importância para estudos de manejo de agroecossistemas, pois podem servir como reservatórios para ácaros fitófagos, além de abrigarem espécies deste táxon ainda desconhecidas, quer seja de fitófagos ou predadores para atuarem como agentes no controle biológico de pragas agrícolas. Os ácaros são classificados como Arthropoda, Chelicerata, Arachnida da subclasse Acari (Krantz & Walter 2009). Estes assumem funções importantes no ambiente de acordo com seu hábito alimentar, atuando sobre muitas espécies de plantas como fitófagos.

Clark3,5 and Thomas Van Leeuwen1,2* Abstract Background: The European red mite, Panonychus ulmi, is among the most important mite pests in fruit orchards, where it is controlled primarily by acaricide application. However, the species rapidly develops pesticide resistance, and the elucidation of resistance mechanisms for P. ulmi has not kept pace with insects or with the closely related spider mite Tetranychus urticae. The main reason for this lack of knowledge has been the absence of genomic resources needed to investigate the molecular biology of resistance mechanisms. Results: Here, we provide a comprehensive strand-specific RNA-seq based transcriptome resource for P. ulmi derived from strains susceptible and resistant to the widely used acaricide spirodiclofen. From a de novo assembly of the P. ulmi transcriptome, we manually annotated detoxification enzyme families, target-sites of commonly used acaricides, and horizontally transferred genes implicated in plant-mite interactions and pesticide resistance. In a comparative analysis that incorporated sequences available for Panonychus citri, T. urticae, and insects, we identified radiations for detoxification gene families following the divergence of Panonychus and Tetranychus genera. Finally, we used the replicated RNA-seq data from the spirodiclofen susceptible and resistant strains to describe gene expression changes associated with resistance. A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase, as well as multiple carboxylcholinesterases, were differentially expressed between the susceptible and resistant strains, and provide a molecular entry point for understanding resistance to spirodiclofen, widely used to control P.

Abou-Elella and Elsayed El-Saiedy Pest and Plant Protection Department, National Research Centre (NRC), Dokki, Cairo, Egypt; E-mails: amira_afifi777 @hotmail.com, [email protected], [email protected] * Corresponding author ABSTRACT Laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the influence of two pea cultivars, regular and sweet as substrates on biological aspects and life table analysis of two phytoseiid species, Cydnoseius negevi (Swirski & Amitai) and Neoseiulus californicus (McGregor) fed on nymphs of Tetranychus urticae Koch under laboratory conditions of 27 ± 1 ℃, 70–80 % RH and 16L:8D h photoperiod. The development was faster and reproduction of N. californicus was higher compared with C. negevi. The predatory mite N. californicus showed the highest fecundity when reared on sweet pea cultivar, while C. negevi exhibited the lowest fecundity when reared on regular pea cultivar. Rearing C. negevi on the two pea cultivars led to the greatest female longevity than that of N. californicus. Feeding capacity of females during oviposition period was the highest for N. californicus on sweet pea, but it was the lowest for C. negevi on regular pea cultivar. Life table analysis showed that the shortest mean generation time (T) for N. californicus (13.01 days) compared with C. negevi (14.65 days) on sweet pea cultivar.

  • Spruce Spider Mite Oligonychus Ununguis Order Acari, Family Tetranychidae; Spider Mites Native Pest
    Pests of Trees and Shrubs Spruce spider mite Oligonychus ununguis Order Acari, Family Tetranychidae; spider mites Native pest Host plants: Blue spruce, Norway, and white spruce are preferred, but arborvitae, cedar, cryptomeria, dawn redwood, Douglas-fir, hemlock, juniper, larch, and pine, are also susceptible. Description: Adult mites are approximately 0.5 mm long with eight legs. They are dark green when young but turn darker green as they mature. Protonymphs are smaller and lighter. Eggs are reddish-orange and oval to circular. Life history: This is a cold tolerant spider mite not active in hot summer temperatures. Eggs hatch in April and May. Feeding damage may be first observed after feeding started. Activity eases in summer with the arrival of 90 degree F temperatures and resumes with cooler weather in fall. There are several generations a year. Overwintering: Eggs on bark and needles. Damage to blue spruce in June caused by spruce spider mite; Damage symptoms: Mite feeding causes color changes note discoloration on the older needles. (234) in needles, giving them first a mottled appearance, then Photo: Cliff Sadof turning needles yellow and finally bronze. Damaged needles may drop prematurely. Severe infestations can cause loss of foliage, twig dieback, even branch dieback. Host trees may be killed, if extremely heavy infestations occur when they are stressed. Monitoring: Eggs hatch when PJM rhododendron blooms in mid April (Herms). Look for fine stippling turning into bronzing of needles beginning in June. To confirm mite presence, hold a sheet of white paper under a branch and tap the branch to dislodge mites.

Abstract The two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae), is one of the most polyphagous herbivores feeding on cell contents of over 1100 plant species including more than 150 crops. However, despite its important pest status and a growing understanding of the molecular basis of its interactions with plant hosts, knowledge of the way mites interface with the plant while feeding and the plant damage directly inflicted by mites is lacking. Likewise, while the use of the reverse genetic tools in plants facilitated our understanding of the establishment of defense mechanisms against spider mite herbivory, such tools are lacking for spider mite, preventing the expansion of functional analysis to both sides of the interacting organisms.

In Europe, it is an indige- nous species, commonly found on various plants, including conifers. The present study examined whether A. andersoni can develop and reproduce while feeding on two key pests of ornamental coniferous plants, i.e., Oligonychus ununguis (Jacobi) and Pentamerismus taxi (Haller). Pinus sylvestris L. pollen was also tested as an alternative food source for the predator. Both prey species and pine pollen were suitable food sources for A. andersoni. Although higher values of population parameters Citation: Puchalska, E.; were observed when the predator fed on mites compared to the pollen alternative, we conclude that Zagrodzki, S.K.; Kozak, M.; pine pollen may provide adequate sustenance for A.
