Key for Identification of Adult Female of Scirtothrips dorsalis (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) Based on External Morphology

Thrips are minute insects and belong to the family thripidae of the order Thysanoptera. Thrips are less than two millimeters long, slender like and agile insects. Head of Scirtothrips dorsalis is pale in colour longer than broad, 217.5-237 μm long and 175-194 μm wide across the eyes. Eyes are redish in colour, 75-89 μm long and 63-70 μm wide at the middle and three occili are arranged triangula...

An Overview of Chilli Thrips, Scirtothrips dorsalis (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) Biology, Distribution and Management

Estimating Bacterial Diversity in Scirtothrips Dorsalis (thysanoptera: Thripidae) via next Generation Sequencing.

The last 2 decades have produced a better understanding of insect-microbial associations and yielded some important opportunities for insect control. However, most of our knowledge comes from model systems. Thrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) have been understudied despite their global importance as invasive species, plant pests and disease vectors. Using a culture and primer independent next-gene...

Molecular identification key for pest species of Scirtothrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae).

Effective plant quarantine and biological control initiatives require rapid and accurate identification of exotic and potentially invasive taxa that may cause high economic losses or environmental damage. The genus Scirtothrips Shull includes several species that are serious agricultural pests, and, because of their minute size and cryptic behavior, prone to undetected transport through interna...

Silicon APPlicATionS hAve MiniMAl effecTS on ScirtothripS dorSaliS (ThYSAnoPTeRA: ThRiPiDAe) PoPUlATionS on PePPeR PlAnT, capSicum annum l

Silicon (Si) is the second most abundant element in soils, and at elevated concentration levels in plant tissue Si is reported to improve plant resistance to a range of biotic and abiotic stresses. in the present study, Si solutions at 100, 300 or 500 mg l-1 made from potassium silicate (K2Sio3) were applied as foliar sprays or soil drenches to pepper (capsicum annum l.) plants, and their effec...

Predation behaviors of Franklinothrips orizabensis (Thysanoptera: Aeolothripidae) towards Scirtothrips perseae and Heliothrips haemorrhoidalis (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)

The foraging behaviors of predatory female Franklinothrips orizabensis Johansen towards Scirtothrips perseae Nakahara and Heliothrips haemorrhoidalis (Bouch e) in avocado leaf arenas were videotaped and analyzed. F. orizabensis encountered and attacked more second instar S. perseae with 80% ðn 1⁄4 113Þ attacks on this life stage being observed compared to 20% on first instars ðn 1⁄4 28Þ when eq...
