Onzo, A.Sabelis, M.W.Hanna, R.[Single versus multiple enemies and the impact on biological control of spider mites in cassava fields in WestAfrica]Single versus multiple enemies and the impact on biological control of spider mites in cassava fields in WestAfrica
Onzo, A.Hanna, R.Zannou, I.Sabelis, M.W.Yaninek, John S.[Dynamics of refuge use: diurnal vertical migration of predatory and herbivorous mites within cassava plants]Dynamics of refuge use: diurnal vertical migration of predatory and herbivorous mites within cassava plants

Predators face the challenge of accessing prey that live in sheltered habitats. The coconut mite Aceriaguerreronis Keifer (Acari: Eriophyidae) lives hidden beneath the perianth, which is appressed to the coconut fruit surface, where they feed on the meristematic tissue. Its natural enemy, the pre...


Silva, F.R. daMoraes, G.J. deLesna, I.Sato, Y.Vásquez, C.Hanna, R.Sabelis, M.W.Janssen, A.[Size of predatory mites and refuge entrance determine success of biological control of the coconut mite]Size of predatory mites and refuge entrance determine success of biological control of the coconut mite

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...


Magalhães, S.Janssen, A.Hanna, R.Sabelis, M.W.[Flexible antipredator behavior in herbivorous mites through vertical migration in a plant]Flexible antipredator behavior in herbivorous mites through vertical migration in a plant

Predatory mites identified as Neoseiulus paspalivorus DeLeon (Phytoseiidae) have been considered as agents for classical biological control of the coconut mite, Aceria guerreronis Keifer (Eriophyidae), in Africa and elsewhere. Preliminary identification of geographically distinct populations as b...


Sourassou, N.F.Hanna, R.Zannou, I.Moraes, G. deNegloh, K.Sabelis, M.W.[Morphological variation and reproductive incompatibility of three coconutmiteassociated populations of predatory mites identified as Neoseiulus paspalivorus ( Acari: Phytoseiidae)]Morphological variation and reproductive incompatibility of three coconutmiteassociated populations of predatory mites identified as Neoseiulus paspalivorus ( Acari: Phytoseiidae)

It is well known that plant-inhabiting predators use herbivore-induced plant volatiles to locate herbivores being their prey. Much less known, however, is the phenomenon that genotypes of the same host plant species vary in the attractiveness of these induced chemical signals, whereas they also d...


Onzo, A.Hanna, R.Sabelis, M.W.[The predatory mite Typhlodromalus aripo prefers greenmite induced plant odours from pubescent cassava varieties]The predatory mite Typhlodromalus aripo prefers greenmite induced plant odours from pubescent cassava varieties

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...


Hanna, R.Onzo, A.Lingeman, R.Yaninek, John S.Sabelis, M.W.[Seasonal cycles and persistence in an acarine predator-prey system on cassava in Africa]Seasonal cycles and persistence in an acarine predator-prey system on cassava in Africa

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...
