C. acutatum and A. tenius were the most frequent fungi that isolated from samples of strawberry plant materials which collected from the different locations in both seasons 2013/ 2014 and 2014/ 2015. Susceptible strawberry cultivar Florida was highly susceptible one where infection reached to 100% infection by Colletotrichum acutatum isolate. 2. Also, Alternaria tenius was pathogenic to c..v Florida, but came in the second rank in pathogenicity tests. The most effective bioagent was T. viride. Also, treating strawberry plants with different concentrations of organic acids affected greatly C. acutatum and A.tenius Ascorbic acid at 200 ppm concentration is the best effective concentration in controlling both pathogens in vitro .. Gall extract affected greatly the growth of. both pathogens in all daily records from 1-6 days, followed by both plant extracts Mustard and Clove.. Two fungicides (recommended for up ground diseases of strawberry plants); i.e., Bellis 38% WG (with three doses; 0.4 g/L., 0.8 g/L. and 1.6 g/L.) and Amistar 25% SC (with three doses; 2.5 ml/l., 5 ml/l. and 10 ml/l.) were used in this experiments. . Complete inhibition of fungal growth was noticed in both high concentration of the tested fungicides and little growth was happened in the low concentration of Bellis and Amistar. A. tenius was revealed as less tolerant to fungicides than C. acutatum. All tested treatments against both pathogens in vitro under laboratory conditions were applied in vivo under field conditions on strawberry plants cv. Florida to investigate their effects on plants under natural infection in field. All growth characteristics of different parts of strawberry cv. Florida like leaves number, lateral branches, flower number, green fruits, colored fruits, TSS% and fruits weight were affected as a result of infection with pathogens and treated with different chemical, biological and agricultural treatments, there were great variations among all applied treatments in this respect, The best treatments were fungicides, followed by gall extract and un-mulched control treatment comparing with other treatment and control treatment (un-treated) , All disease symptomson strawberry cv. Florida were calculated on plant leaves, flower parts, vegetative fruit characteristics. Black spot, irregular spot, black margin, petiole lesions and dead leaf were calculated during the period ranged between 3-15 days at 15 Pth P 30Pth P March, 2015. Both chemical fungicides (Bellis 38% WG and Amistar 25% SC) controlled completely the leaf infection symptoms, followed by Galls 10%.

Results indicated that garlic oil gave the highest percentages of mortality when used at 2% concentration (81.43%) as mean mortality after 7 days of spray on the two spotted spider mite, T. urticae followed by camphor, recorded 27.14, 42.86 and 65.00% mean mortality at 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0% concentrations, while jojoba oil recorded only 32.14% mean mortality ranged from 6.43 to 79.29% when concentrations from 0.5 to 10% used. The lowest effect was obtained when menthol oil was used, only 14.29% mean mortality obtained at 2.0% concentration while the highest mortality obtained at 10.0% concentration (77.86% after 7 days). As for the predatory mite, A. exsertus, data cleared that both garlic and camphor have high toxic effect when 5.0% and 10.0% concentrations used, recorded 66.43, 79.29% for garlic and 62.14, 77.14% for camphor. While thyme gave the lowest effect followed by jojoba with 10.0% concentration. The most safety oil on the predatory mite was menthol, without any effect at 0.5, 1.0, 2.0% concentration. Also, the study showed that menthol and camphor have high repellency effect after one and six hours, but the thyme oil have the lowest repellency effect where recorded the second class of repellency (21:40%) after one hour for T. urticae. The obtained results also indicated that the camphor oil have the highest repellency oil, 2.0% concentration for the predator mite A. exsertus.

Date palm fruits of Samani variety was chosen from El-Beheira Governorate represented soft date variety and Siwi variety used as semi-dried variety from Fayoum Governorate while Apremy variety was the dried fruits variety tested from Aswan Governorate. Also, Menoufia, Cairo, Gharbia, Sharkia, Dimetta, Giza, Fayoum, Beni-Sweief, Menia and Aswan Governorates were chosen for study the abundance of spiders in stores. The date palm fruits were collected and identified during the study period from October 2016 till September 2017. The obtained results which conducted on different date palm varieties indicated that the soft and semi dried varieties harbored many of spiders and these spiders obviously decreased in the dried varieties. The obtained data indicated also that the most abundant families were Philodromidae and Salticidae on leaves and Miturgidae, Hersilidae and Lycosidae associated with fruits in the field and on stored date fruits.
