Galendromus occidentalis (Acari: Phytoseiidae) life table parameters on Oligonychus yothersi (Acari: Tetranychidae) colonies and its behavior to odors of mites, avocado shoots volatiles and synthetic compounds

Abstract: The red mite, Oligonychus yothersi (McGregor) (Acari: Tetranychidae), is a serious pest of avocado (Persea americana Mill.) 'Hass' in Chile. Micro-coleopterans predators are observed in avocado orchards during outbreaks of O. yothersi, which are attracted by herbivore-induced plant volatiles (HIPVs). However, the damage to plants persists and new predators are needed. Due to its effectiveness and adaptability to dry climates, the western predatory mite Galendromus occidentalis (Nesbitt) (Acari: Phytoseiidae) h… Show more

“…The pest O. yothersi has been reported as a polyphagous and severe species in several countries of the world (Pinto et al, 2012;Ceballos et al, 2022), plant damage is expressed in the reduction of photosynthetic activity, the consequence of which is excessive defoliation of the plant when attacks are severe (Rioja et al, 2018;Rioja et al, 2019). Among the most susceptible varieties of Persea americana are Hass and Fuerte, with a direct consequence on fruit quality and yield (Ceballos et al, 2022).…”

Among the most susceptible varieties of Persea americana are Hass and Fuerte, with a direct consequence on fruit quality and yield (Ceballos et al, 2022). This is the foliar pest with the highest incidence during the autumn and summer season (Yang et al, 2015;Bayu et al, 2017;Rioja et al, 2019) whose symptoms are tanning and leaf fall, because the mite pierces the leaf with its chelicerae in the form of a stylet and sucks the cellular contents (Rioja et al, 2018;Chiaradia et al, 2021).…”
