Acaricidal Management of Abamectin Mixtures against All Stages 0f the Two-Spotted Spider Mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch, Infesting Cucumber Plants

mechanisms of resistance to abamectin in two-spotted spider mite, tetranychus urticae koch (acari: tetranychidae)

tetranychus urticae koch is an injurious pest of, fruit crops, crop plants as well as ornamental plants worldwide. the high reproductive potential of t. urticae and its fairly short life cycle along with the frequent application of acaricides usually required to maintain t. urticae populations below economic thresholds, facilitates the pest's resistance to acaricides, and consequently cont...

Control of two–spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae) by some selected chemicals

The experiment was conducted to study the effectiveness of four commonly used chemicals viz., deltamethrin, cypermethrin, malathion and sulphur against two-spotted spider mite (TSSM), Tetranychus urticae Koch on potted bean plants and on excised leaf discs. Mite population remained significantly lower in all treated plots except malathion treatment. The population of T. urticae differed signifi...

Stably Expressed Housekeeping Genes across Developmental Stages in the Two-Spotted Spider Mite, Tetranychus urticae

Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) is a reliable and reproducible technique for measuring mRNA expression. To facilitate gene expression studies and obtain more accurate qRT-PCR analysis, normalization relative to stable housekeeping genes is mandatory. In this study, ten housekeeping genes, including beta-actin (Actin) , elongation factor 1 α (EF1A) , glyceralde hyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenas...
