Disease relevance of Tetranychidae

 

High impact information on Tetranychidae

  • Subsequently, cucumber plants were sprayed with jasmonic acid, mechanically damaged, infested with spider mites, or left untreated (control) [2].
  • Transcripts of LjEbetaOS were induced in L. japonicus plants infested with two-spotted spider mites (Tetranychus urticae), coinciding with increasing emissions of (E)-beta-ocimene as well as other volatiles, (Z)-3-hexenyl acetate and (E)-4,8-dimethyl-1,3,7-nonatriene, by the infested plants [3].
  • In contrast to earlier reports, spider mites laid as many eggs and caused as much damage on def-1 as on wild-type plants, even though def-1 lacked induction of proteinase inhibitor activity [4].
  • The prevalence of work-related asthma symptoms was higher in farmers with positive skin responses to spider mites than in those with negative skin responses to spider mites and those with positive skin responses to any allergen tested (31.4% vs 15.0% vs 21.0%, respectively; P <.05) [5].
  • Induced production of extrafloral nectar in intact lima bean plants in response to volatiles from spider mite-infested conspecific plants as a possible indirect defense against spider mites [6].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Tetranychidae

  • Aqueous solutions of the tri-siloxane surfactants Silwet L-77, Silwet 408, and Silwet 806 were bioassayed against adult female two-spotted spider mites, Tetranychus urticae Koch, with leaf dip methods to compare their toxicity with organosilicone molecules containing bulkier hydrophobic components [7].
  • Toxicity of the herbicide glufosinate-ammonium to predatory insects and mites of Tetranychus urticae (Acari: Tetranychidae) under laboratory conditions [8].
 

Associations of Tetranychidae with chemical compounds

  • Here we used monochlorobimane (MCB) as an artificial substrate and glutathione to determine total GST activity in equivalents of single pest insects and spider mites in a sensitive 96-well plate-based assay system by measuring the enzymatic conversion of MCB to its fluorescent bimane-glutathione adduct [9].
  • The differentiation by their GST activity between several strains of the two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae (Acari: Tetranychidae), with different degrees of resistance to numerous acaricides was more sensitive with MCB compared to the commonly used substrate 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB) [9].
  • We showed that spider mites accumulate 2-tridecanone when foraging on cultivated tomato [10].
  • Penetration and fate of methomyl and its oxime metabolite in insects and twospotted spider mites [11].
  • Because methyl ketone apparently accumulates in the spider mites on tomato, the rate of mite-trichome contact is probably higher than that [10].
 

Gene context of Tetranychidae

  • Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) from two-spotted spider mites, Tetranychus urticae was compared between an organophosphate susceptible (TKD) and a resistant (NCN) strain [12].
  • The functional response was measured by offering eggs and adults of T urticae at densities ranging from 4 to 64 items per tomato leaflet (surface ca. 6.3 cm2); eggs were offered to predator protonymphs and deutonymphs, adult spider mites to adult predators [13].
  • Interspecific diversity of mitochondrial COI sequences in Japanese Panonychus species (Acari: Tetranychidae) [14].
