Abstract

ABSTRACT The European red mite, Panonychus ulmi, has emerged as a serious pest in apple orchards of Himachal Pradesh, India. Therefore, the present studies were conducted to use a combination of reduced dose of synthetic acaricidal concentrations along with Horticultural Mineral Oil (@ 1%) and (@ 0.5%). Results showed that the combination treatments [half concentration of the recommended acaricide (fenazaquin, fenpyroximate, spiromesifen and hexythiazox)] and Horticulture Mineral Oil (@ 1%) reduced the mite population to 1.33 mites per leaf in comparison to 37.30 mites per leaf in control. When both the acaricides and Horticulture Mineral Oil were reduced to half, the mite population was reduced to 2.33 mites per leaf, whereas the infestation in control was 22.65 mites per leaf. Further, the evaluation of the combination of hexythiazox (0.005%) + HMO (1%) was evaluated with biopesticides and popularly used acaricides under high-density apple plantation. The results revealed propargite (0.057%) as the most effective treatment being at par with hexythiazox (0.005%) + HMO 1% (1.25 and 1.45 mites/leaf, respectively). The entomopathogenic fungi, Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae (2.40 and 2.55 mites/leaf, respectively) were quite effective in reducing the mite population. Among all the treatments, hexythiazox 0.005% (13.10 mites/leaf) was the least effective treatment.

印度西北喜马拉雅地区苹果园中欧洲红螨（Panonychus ulmi）（Acari: Tetranychidae）的防治工作

摘要欧洲红螨（Panonychus ulmi）已成为印度喜马偕尔邦苹果园中的一种严重害虫。因此，本研究使用了合成杀螨剂的低剂量与园艺矿物油（1%）和（0.5%）的组合。结果表明，[推荐杀螨剂（螨螨喹、螨螨酯、螺旋霉素和噻螨酮）的一半浓度]和园艺矿物油（1%）的组合处理可将螨虫数量减少到每片叶子 1.33 只，而对照组每片叶子 37.30 只。当杀螨剂和园艺矿物油的用量减半时，螨虫数量减少到每片叶子 2.33 只，而对照组的螨虫数量为每片叶子 22.65 只。此外，在高密度苹果种植园中，对噻螨酮（0.005%）+ HMO（1%）的组合与生物农药和常用杀螨剂进行了评估。结果表明，丙螨特（0.057%）是最有效的杀螨剂，与噻螨酮（0.005%）+ HMO（1%）（每片叶子分别有 1.25 和 1.45 只螨）相当。昆虫病原真菌 Beauveria bassiana 和 Metarhizium anisopliae（分别为 2.40 和 2.55 只/叶）对减少螨虫数量相当有效。在所有处理中，噻螨酮 0.005%（13.10 只/叶）是效果最差的处理。

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Acarology has a global readership and publishes original research and review papers on a wide variety of acarological subjects including: • mite and tick behavior • biochemistry • biology • control • ecology • evolution • morphology • physiology • systematics • taxonomy (single species descriptions are discouraged unless accompanied by additional new information on ecology, biology, systematics, etc.) All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor. If the English is not of a quality suitable for reviewers, the manuscript will be returned. If found suitable for further consideration, it will be submitted to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single blind.
