| population dynamics of phytophagous and predatory mites (acari: tetranychidae, eriophyidae, phytoseiidae) on bamboo plants in fujian, china. | the seasonal cycle and population dynamics of schizotetranychus nanjingensis ma and yuan, aponychus corpuzae rimando (tetranychidae), aculus hambusae kuang (eriophyidae) and their natural enemy tvphlodromus bambusae ehara (phytoseiidae) were studied during 1996-1998 in moso bamboo forests in nanping, fujian, china. damage to bamboo leaves was often caused by mixed populations of the three phytophagous species, which displayed different seasonal dynamics: s. nanjingensis fed actively and reproduc ... | 2001 | 11603731 |
| ambulatory migration in mites (acari: tetranychidae, phytoseiidae) to new leaves of moso bamboo shoots. | the migratory behaviour of two tetranychid pest species, aponychus corpuzae and schizotetranychus nanjingensis, and one phytoseiid, typhlodromus bambusae, was studied in several monocultural bamboo forests in fujian province, china. the aim of the study was to assess how the ambulatory immigration of tetranychid and phytoseiid mites from the ground to new leaves is affected by a sticky barrier around the stem, by the age of bamboo shoots or by shoot density. the results show that while the stick ... | 2003 | 14756401 |
| [on the causes of mite pest outbreaks in mono- and poly-cultured moso bamboo forests]. | in this paper, the damage of phytophagous mites schizotetranychus nanjingensis ma & yuan, aponychus corpuzae rimando and aculus bambusae kuang to moso bamboo (phyllostaychs pubescens) was examined for ten pairs of mono- and poly-cultured forests at six locations in fujian, china. the results showed that the mite damage in mono-cultured forests (35%) was twice as high as that in poly-cultured forests (17.5% < the injury level of 20%), and the difference was significant by t-test. the total pest m ... | 2004 | 15506090 |
