Inter-population variation for Wolbachia induced reproductive incompatibility in the haplodiploid mite Tetranychus urticae
Recent studies have revealed diverse patterns of cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) induced by Wolbachia in the two spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae Koch). The mechanism of CI consists of two steps: modific...

Evaluation of Resistance Pattern to Fenpyroximate and Pyridaben in Tetranychus Urticae collected from Ggreenhouses and Apple Orchards using Lethal Concentration-slope Relationship
This study aimed to monitor the present and future developments of the resistance of Tetranychus urticae Koch to fenpyroximate and pyridaben, using the relationship of the LC50 and slope of the concentration-mort...
