Potential Geographic Distribution

The cassava green mite (Mononychellus mcgregori) was listed as a quarantine pest in the world. The risk of invasion of M. mcgregori was on the increasing with the development of foreign trade, especially in Guangxi province, China. Therefore the prediction of geographic distribution areas and pest risk analysis should be done urgently. In this paper potential geographic distribution areas of M. mcgregori in Guangxi were predicted with niche model MaxEnt. Through validating prediction result and analyzing technical parameter AUC-value, it is sure that niche model MaxEnt is suitable for predicting potential distribution areas of M. mcgregori in Guangxi. At the same time the useful method would be utilized to predict potential geographic distribution areas of other cassava pests.

Selection Of

Climatic similarity has been the primary parameter considered in the selection of sites for the collection and release of natural enemies in classical biological control programs. However, acknowledging the relevance of the composition of biological communities can be essential for improving the record of successful biocontrol projects, in relation to the proper selection of collection sites. We present in this paper an analysis of the plant and mite assemblages in cassava fields of northeastern Brazil. Such analysis is suggested as an additional criterion for the selection of collection sites of mite predators of the cassava green mite, Mononychellus tanajoa (Bondar), in an international biological control program. Contingency TABLES were built using Dice's index as an indicator of significant associations between pairs of species. This analysis enabled the identification of plant and mite species typically found together, indicating interspecific interactions or similar ecological requirements. Finally, a cluster analysis was used to group sites containing similar assemblages. These sites exhibit comparable chances of harboring a given species. Applied at the species-group level, the analysis may assist in better defining sites for the collection of natural enemies to be released in a given region, improving the chances of establishment.
