Abstract

Our earlier study revealed that pesticide use considering the preservation of phytoseiid mites is crucially important for the effective utilization of commercialized Neoseiulus californicus (McGregor) (Acari: Phytoseiidae) release materials for spider mite control in Japanese pear orchards. Pesticide use alteration corresponding to commercialized N. californicus release material installation might change phytoseiid mite species composition and affect the efficacy of commercialized N. californicus in spider mite control. This study evaluated the effect of pesticide use alteration on phytoseiid mite species composition and subsequent spider mite control using commercialized N. californicus at Japanese pear orchards. We examined the population dynamics of spider mites and phytoseiid mites in Japanese pear orchards during 2019–2023. In 2022 and 2023, commercialized N. californicus release materials were installed at a Japanese pear orchard under conditions limiting the use of pesticides with adverse effects on phytoseiid mites. The results demonstrated that the most dominant species was shifted from N. californicus to Amblyseius eharai Amitai et Swirski (Acari: Phytoseiidae) with no significant suppression effects of commercialized N. californicus in spider mite control. The results also demonstrated a decline in the distribution of commercialized N. californicus to pear leaves. Amblyseius eharai and indigenous N. californicus dominantly existed in that order before commercialized N. californicus distribution to pear leaves. These results suggest that intraguild predation by A. eharai and competition with indigenous N. californicus might be involved in the less efficient distribution of commercialized individuals as major and minor factors, respectively.

农药用量变化对日本梨园植物绥螨种类组成的影响及加利福尼亚新绥螨商品化防治

前期研究表明，考虑到植物螨的保存，农药的使用对于有效利用商品化的加利福尼亚新小绥螨（McGregor）（蜱螨亚纲：植物螨科）释放材料防治日本梨园的蜘蛛螨至关重要。与加利福尼亚新绥螨商品化释放材料安装相对应的农药用量变化可能会改变加州新绥螨的种类组成，影响加州新绥螨商品化防治效果。本研究评估了农药用量变化对日本梨园加利福尼亚新绥螨种类组成的影响，以及随后使用商品加利福尼亚新绥螨防治蜘蛛螨的效果。研究了2019-2023年日本梨园蜘蛛螨和植物螨的种群动态。在2022年和2023年，在限制使用对植物螨有不利影响的杀虫剂的条件下，在日本的一个梨园安装了商业化的加利福尼亚新螨释放材料。结果表明：加州新绥螨的优势种由加州新绥螨转变为加州钝绥螨（蜱螨目：植物绥螨科），商品化加州新绥螨对螨的抑制效果不显著。结果还表明，商业化加利福尼亚新螨在梨叶上的分布呈下降趋势。在商业化加利福尼亚新螨在梨叶上的分布之前，该顺序中主要存在加利福尼亚新螨和黑僵绥螨。这些结果表明，在商业个体分配效率低下的主要因素可能是野田鼠的捕食，而与本地加利福尼亚新绥螨的竞争可能是次要因素。
