Toxicity of Pogostemon Parviflorus (benth) and Polygonum Hydropiper (l) on Developemetal Stages of Red Spider Mite (oligonychus Coffeae, Neitner) (acarina: Tetranychidae) on Tea

چکیده
A study was conducted during 2009-10 to assess the toxicity of chloroform extracts of Pogostemon parviflorus (Benth.) and Polygonum hydropiper (L) against red spider mite (Oigonychus coffeae, Neitner) under laboratory condition using leaf detached method. Both the plant extracts possesed the acaricidal properties on developmental stages of red spider mite. The treatment with both plant extracts exhibited prolonged developmental period which affected the population build up of the pest in subsequent generation. The efficacy of extracts was found to be dose dependent. However, except in deutonymph the duration was found to be reduced at lower dose with Pogostemon parviflorus extracts then the normal but, the result was not significant. It is also observed that high toxicity to the mite was exhibited by Polygonum hydropiper.

Functional and numerical responses of the predatory mite, Neoseiulus longispinosus (Evans) (Acari: Phytoseiidae) to the red spider mite, Oligonychus coffeae Nietner (Acari: Tetranychidae), infesting tea were determined in a laboratory on leaf discs. Prey consumption increased with increases in temperature and prey density. Handling time decreased and successful attack rate increased with increa...

A laboratory trial evaluated four phytoseiid species for their potential as biological control agents of spruce spider mite, Oligonychus ununguis (Jacobi) (Acari: Tetranychidae). An augmentative biological control approach, using the predatory mites Neoseiulus fallacis Garman and Galendromus occidentalis Nesbitt (Acari: Phytoseiidae), was evaluated for reducing pest mite densities and injury, a...
