Tetranychus Turkestani

The strawberry spider mite, Tetranychus turkestani Ugarov and Nikolski, is one of the most important pests of different field and glasshouse crops in Iran. The objectives of the current study were to determine developmental time, survival, reproduction and life table parameters of T. turkestani on three plant species: cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.), white bean (Phaseolus lunatus L.) and red bean (Phaseolus calcaratus Roxb.) at 25 ± 1 °C, 60 ± 10 % RH and a photoperiod of 16:8 (L:D). The mean developmental time from egg to adult on cowpea, white bean and red bean were 11.99, 10.43 and 10.46 days, respectively. The total preadult survival rates varied from 75% to 80%. Females of T. turkestani oviposited means of 65.13, 44.03 and 32.69 eggs on cowpea, white bean and red bean, respectively, and had a mean longevity of 13.92, 9.08 and 7.23 days on the same three host plants. The intrinsic rate of increase (rm) varied from 0.18 to 0.21. The net reproductive rate (R0) was higher on cowpea (42.33) than on white bean (24.95) or red bean (14.16). Using these measures, T. turkestani performance was best on cowpea, worst on red bean, and intermediate on white bean.

Critical Temperatures

The effects of six ambient temperatures (15, 20, 25, 30, 35 and 37.5ºC) on life table parameters of Tetranychus kanzawai Kishida (Tetranychidae) were studied under laboratory conditions on soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill). Total immature developmental time of females at the above-mentioned temperatures was 28.55, 16.34, 9.01, 6.96, 5.56 and 5.65 days, respectively. A linear and two nonlinear models of Lactin and SSI were fitted to developmental rate of immature stages of T. kanzawai to predict the developmental rate as a function of temperature, as well as to estimate the thermal constant (k) and critical temperatures. The estimated k for total immature developmental time of females and males was 134.58 and 126.74 DD, respectively. The estimated Topt and Tmax by Lactin model for overall immature stages were 36.20 and 40.70ºC, respectively. Intrinsic optimum temperature (TФ) and T1 (Topt) by SSI model for total immature stages was estimated to be 23.23 and 35.71ºC, respectively. Also the estimated TL and Th of SSI model for overall immature stage were 09.21 and 38.46ºC, respectively. The longest and shortest adult longevity was observed at 15°C (60.63 days), and 37.5°C (7.34 days), respectively. Mated females laid highest and lowest eggs at 25°C (237.96 eggs) and 37.5°C (30.54 eggs), respectively. The rm values ranged from 0.356 day-1 at 30°C to 0.089 day-1at 15°C. The highest value of R0 was 163.55 offspring female-1 at 25°C. The presented information in this study provided new perspective to better management of T. kanzawai on apple trees in Iran.
