AbstractA rod-shaped noninclusion virus infects the European red mite, Panonychus ulmi (Koch), in Ontario. Infection and death can occur in any postovarial stage. Most infected mites contain, in the midgut, more or less spheroidal inclusions with a radiating crystalline structure. Infected mites deposit inoculum on the leaves, probably in excreta or oral secretions at feeding sites, which is picked up orally by uninfected mites while feeding. The inoculum on the leaves is very unstable, seldom remaining infective for more than a week and being almost immediately inactivated after exposure to water. Suspensions of infected mites, triturated in water or various solutions, were inefficient inocula.Introduction of virus into orchard populations of P. ulmi induced epizootics that rapidly reduced the population density. Natural epizootics were found only in dense populations.

http://dx.doi.org/10.5007/2175-7925.2017v30n1p73A vitivinicultura no estado do Rio Grande do Sul tem sofrido infestações significativas de ácaros praga, destacando-se recentemente Panonychus ulmi (Koch). Há relatos sobre a capacidade de controle de ácaros fitófagos com Isaria fumosorosea. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar em laboratório a ação patogênica de I. fumosorosea sobre o ácaro P. ulmi. As criações de P. ulmi foram estabelecidas a partir de coleta realizadas em videiras da Serra Gaúcha. Sobre os ovos de P. ulmi, as aplicações de suspensões de esporos foram feitas em diferentes concentrações. As triplicatas das fêmeas de 12 a 15 dias foram tratadas com suspensão a 108 esporos x mL-1. As testemunhas foram tratadas com água destilada. Após sete dias da aplicação, observaram-se 55,6% de ovos não eclodidos tratados com suspensão 106 esporos x mL-1 e com fêmeas tratadas obteve-se uma mortalidade total entre 85-90% e mortalidade confirmada entre 50-55%. A mortalidade máxima dos controles no tratamento dos ovos e das fêmeas foi, em média, de 12,8 e 15,5%, respectivamente. Conclui-se que o isolado I. fumosorosea possui habilidade para infectar ovos e fêmeas adultas de P. ulmi e portanto mostra-se como uma alternativa viável para ser experimentada no campo.

Methods Of Control

In British Columbia the control of phytophagous mites, especially the European red mite, Panonychus ulmi (Koch), and the McDaniel spider mite, Tetranychus mcdanieli McG., is becoming increasingly difficult, mainly because of the mites' ability to develop resistance to most acaricides in a relatively short time (3). Because of this, methods of control other than strictly chemical are examined at every opportunity.

Numbers of the European red mite (Panonychus ulmi Koch) increased but those of the brown mite (Bryobia arborea Morgan & Anderson) and the peach silver mite (Vasates cornutus Banks) decreased after sprays of Sevin (N-methyl-1-naphthyl carbamate) were applied to peach trees. Sevin practically eliminated the predacious mite Typhlodromus rhenanus Oudms., and larvae and pupae of Stethorus punctillum Weise, and greatly reduced the numbers of adults of S. punctillum, chrysopid larvae, and spiders.

AbstractA study was conducted in a mature apple orchard in Nova Scotia to compare the density of eggs of the European red mite, Panonychus ulmi (Koch), over the whole tree to their density on a selected area using a random selection and standard selection technique. Both methods provided nearly equivalent estimates of population densities for generations 2 and 4 but not for generation 3. The population estimates based on sampling from the selected area overestimated the whole tree population.Optimum allocation of sampling resources may be obtained by sampling a small number of clusters from each of a large number of trees.

AbstractUtilizing the knowledge of their direct effects, the materials ryania, carbaryl, and Animert V-101 applied to a uniformly distributed population of the European red mite, Panonychus ulmi (Koch), altered the populations in plots in an apple orchard. Trends after treatment in both host mite and predator populations were assessed. Supplementary applications of the acaricides Animert V-101 or dicofol directed against certain generations of P. ulmi controlled outbreaks and altered the faunal levels during the following season. Ryania was largely innocuous to most species of predators with the exception of Atractotomus mali (Meyer) and Diaphnocoris spp., carbaryl was detrimental to most predacious species, and Animert V-101, while selectively toxic to phytophagous mites, was innocuous to all predacious insects and Typhlodromus pyri Scheuten.Phytophagous mite populations may be altered to almost prescribed levels with pesticides when the predator populations are known. This allows selective chemicals to be used to complement the predator effect and maintain red mites below the threshold of damage.

AbstractThe following oils were evaluated for control of the pear psylla, Psylla pyricola Foerster, phytotoxicity, and persistence on Bartlett pear trees; Orchex 696, Orchex 796 with 0.46% emulsifier, Orchex 796 with 1% emulsifier, PGSO-1, PGSO-2, and Volck Supreme. The oils were applied at the rate of 5 gal per acre in a three-spray program, one at the delayed dormant period and two during the summer.Orchex 796 (1% emulsifier) and Volck Superme oil gave the best control of pear psylla, PGSO-1 and PGSO-2 were intermediate, and Orchex 696 and Orchex 796 (0.46% emulsifier) were the least effective. Each of the oils gave excellent control of the European red mite, Panonychus ulmi (Koch).The oils caused enlargement and corkiness of the bark lenticels on 1-, 2-, and 3-year old wood. The pear fruits showed darker green lenticels than unsprayed fruit, but this green spotting did not persist when the pears were ripened.Analysis showed each oil to be persistent upon pear foliage. There was little loss after 8 days and an average of 28% loss after 25 days.
