A survey of the distribution and abundance of cassava green mite and associated indigenous natural enemies found in the cassava agroecosystem in Cameroon was conducted during the 1991 dry season (January-February). The survey area included nine of the ten provinces of the country and covered 4.2 ...

In this study, we investigate the spatio-temporal fluctuations of the cashew leafminer Eteoryctis gemoniella Stainton, which was recently reported as one of the most devastating cashew pests in Benin. Eteoryctis gemoniella causes serious damage, especially to the young tender leaves, thus reducin...

To improve biocontrol of the cassava green mite, Mononychellus tanajoa, a series of screenhouse experiments were conducted on cassava to determine the effects of single and combined releases of the predatory mite Typhlodromalus aripo and the entomopathogenic fungus Neozygites tanajoae on the supp...

There is an increasing awareness that vegetation diversity can affect herbi-vore and natural enemy abundance and that plants can play a major rolein directly manipulating natural enemy abundance for protection againstherbivore attacks. Using data from cassava fields, we aimed at (i) testingthe ca...

The cassava green mite Mononychellus tanajoa (Bondar) (Acari: Tetranychidae) is one of the most important pests of cassava, a main staple food crop in Tanzania. The International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (ETA) in collaboration with the Tanzania National Biological Control P r o m (NBCP) ...

In Benin, the tarsonemid mite Polyphagotarsonemus latus (Banks) (Prostigmata: Tarsonemidae) is a key pest of gboma eggplant Solanum macrocarpon (L.) (Solanales: Solanaceae), a leafy vegetable on which it causes considerable damage to the plants and substantial reduction in yield. Predatory mites ...

We applied time series analysis and a mechanistic predator-prey model to long-term data of monthly population counts of the herbivorous pest mite Mononychellus tanajoa and its introduced phytoseiid predator Typhlodromalus aripo from a cassava field in Benin, West Africa. In this approach, we dete...

To determine the impact of an acarine predator guild on the abundance of a shared herbivorous prey and its principal exotic predator, a series of surveys were conducted in ca. 200 cassava fields in swamp and non-swamp areas in southwestern Benin, West Africa. For each field, the surveys provided ...

Intraguild predation, one aspect of predator–predator interaction, has received in recent years increasingly greater attention because of mounting evidence of the impact of predator–predator interactions on the structure of ecological communities and biological pest control. In laboratory experim...
