Under attack by herbivores, plants produce a blend of“herbivore-inducedplant volatiles (HIPV)”that help natural enemies of herbivores locating their prey,thereby helping plants to reduce damage from herbivory. The amount of HIPVemitted by plants increases with herbivore density and is positively ...


Onzo, A.Hanna, R.Sabelis, M.W.[Withinplant migration of the predatory mite Typhlodromalus aripo from the apex to the leaves of cassava: response to daynight cycle, prey location and prey density]Withinplant migration of the predatory mite Typhlodromalus aripo from the apex to the leaves of cassava: response to daynight cycle, prey location and prey density

When predation risk varies in space and time and with predator species, successful prey defence requires specific responses to each predator. In cassava fields in Africa, the herbivorous cassava green mite (Mononychellus tanajoa) is attacked by three predatory mite species that are segregated wit...

Experiments were conducted at Ibadan, Nigeria to assess the effect of leaf trichome characteristics (pubescence intensity index, length, and orientation) on field resistance of cassava to the green spider mite, Mononychellus tanajoa (Bondar). There were significant (P < 0.01) differences in M. ta...


Nukenine, E.N.Dixon, Alfred G.O.Hassan, A.T.Zalom, F.G.[Relationships between leaf trichome characteristics and field resistance to cassava green mite (Mononychellus tanajoa (Bondar)]Relationships between leaf trichome characteristics and field resistance to cassava green mite (Mononychellus tanajoa (Bondar)

The population dynamics of Mononychellus tanajoa as influenced by varietal resistance of cassava was determined over two cassava planting seasons (dry and wet season), using biweekly samples from 11 cassava genotypes in Ibadan, Nigeria. The population size of M. tanajoa and the damage scores were...

This work was done at the International Center of Tropical Agriculture (CIAT), with the objective of checking the effect of differents food sources on the fertility of Amblyseius limonicus Garman & McGregor (Acarina: Phytoseiidae), predator of green mite (Mononychellus tanajoa) in cassava culture...

Cassava green mite [CGM, Mononychellus tanajoa (Bondar)] is a dry-season pest that usually feeds on the underside of young leaves causing leaf chlorosis, stunted growth, and root yield reduction by 80%. Since cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) leaves and roots serve as a primary staple food sourc...

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is an important commodity for industrial processes in tropical countries as one of the few alternatives to compete with imported maize (Zea mays L.). To maintain this competitiveness, cassava breeding needs to be as efficient as possible. This study provides one...

In Africa the cassava green mite, Mononychellus tanajoa, is an important pest of cassava, Manihot esculenta. Phytoseiid mites from South America are being evaluated as potential biological control agents of this alien pest. We evaluated six phytoseiid (Acari: Phytoseiidae) species, collected in S...
