“…Esses ácaros também podem ser controlados com inseticidas fumigantes, como a fosfina (Sinha et al 1967), além de piretróides e organofosforados (Zdarkova 1994). Tem sido estudado o uso de predadores das famílias Cheyletidae e Ascidae para controle biológico de ácaros em grãos armazenados (Zdarkova & Feit 1999, Rezk 2000, e o tratamento de grãos com óleos vegetais (Sanchez Ramos & Castanera 2001). Essas alternativas, inclusive, vêm sendo testadas em conjunto, através do manejo integrado (Armitage et al 1994).…”

-The mite fauna was assessed in bean, maize and pet food in supermarkets and markets in Recife, PE, Brazil. A 500 g sample of each grain and food was collected in each establishment at two weekly intervals, from August 2002 to June 2003. The sample was divided into two 250 g subsamples. One of them was submitted to spider mite evaluation shortly after collection and the other was incubated at 26 o C and 78% humidity for 30 days. At the end of this period the second subsample was processed in the same way as the first. The spider mites were mounted on slides for microscopy in Hoyer medium and identified at least at genus level. Eleven thousand nine hundred and fifty-six spider mites were collected belonging to the Acaridae, Ebertiidae, Glycyphagidae, Cheyletidae, Stigmaeidae, Pyemotidae, Tarsonemidae, Tydeidae, Cunaxidae, Ameroseiidae, Ascidae e Phytoseiidae families. Among the primary spider mites the Suidasia medanensis Oudemans species was predominant in the survey (3,035 individuals) followed by Caloglyphus hughesi (Samsinak) (436 individuals). Metapronematus sp. was predominant (3,417 individuals) among the secondary spider mites followed by Tarsonemus granarius Lindquist (3,003). The number of mites collected in the incubated samples was always greater compared to the non-incubated samples in both the market and supermarket samples.KEY WORDS: Acari, stored product, diversity RESUMO -Este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar a acarofauna em grãos de feijão, milho e ração em supermercados e feiras livres da cidade do Recife, PE. Em cada estabelecimento foi coletada uma amostra de 500 g de cada grão e ração, em intervalos bimensais, no período de agosto/2002 a junho/ 2003. Cada amostra foi dividida em duas sub-amostras de 250 g. Uma delas foi submetida à extração de ácaros logo após a coleta e a outra foi incubada a 26 o C e umidade relativa de 78% por 30 dias. Ao final desse período a segunda sub-amostra foi processada da mesma forma que a primeira. Os ácaros foram montados em lâminas para microscopia em meio de Hoyer e identificados pelo menos até o nível de gênero. Foram coletados 11.956 ácaros pertencentes às famílias Acaridae, Ebertiidae, Glycyphagidae, Cheyletidae, Stigmaeidae, Pyemotidae, Tarsonemidae, Tydeidae, Cunaxidae, Ameroseiidae, Ascidae e Phytoseiidae. Dentre os ácaros primários, a espécie Suidasia medanensis Oudemans foi a predominante no levantamento (3.035 indivíduos), seguida de Caloglyphus hughesi (Samsinak) (436 indivíduos). Metapronematus sp. foi predominante (3.417 indivíduos), dentre os ácaros secundários, seguido de Tarsonemus granarius Lindquist (3.003). O número de ácaros coletados nas amostras incubadas foi sempre superior em relação às amostras não incubadas, assim como nas amostras de feira livre em relação às de supermercado. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Acari, grãos armazenados, diversidade O ambiente artificial criado pelos depósitos e armazéns de grãos armazenados favorece o desenvolvimento de diversas espécies de ácaros, visto que a proteção contra extremos de temperatura permite ...

“…However, the essential oil demonstrated weak acute toxicity against the weevil when compared with the control (pyrethrum extract, 25% pyrethrin I and pyrethrin II) because the pyrethrum extract had acute toxicity to the maize weevils with an LD 50 value of 4.3 µg/adult . In previous studies, the two main components of the essential oil (estragole and linalool) demonstrated toxicity against several species of insects and mites (Sanchez-Ramos and Castanera, 2001;Sampson et al, 2005;Chang et al, 2009;Yang et al, 2009).…”

“…Das [19] recommended the use of citronella oil for the management of mushroom mites. Plant-derived extracts, powders [20,21] and essential oils can be better options for mite control [22,23] Sanchez-Ramos and Castanera [23] tested 13 natural monoterpenes against T. putrescentiae and concluded that of these, pulegone, menthone, linalool and fenchone had high acaricidal activity, yielding LC90 values out of 14 µl/l or below. There are several studies that showed the effectiveness of plant essential oils for control of stored products pests [22].…”

Haryana is the leading state in seasonal mushroom production contributing approximately 4000 tonnes per year. Reports are available on the occurrence of mites including Tyrophagus putrescentiae in oyster mushrooms. Mites have been found to damage mushrooms right from spawning to the harvest of the crop. Mite damage on the fruiting bodies often shows up as the small cavities in the stem and cap similar in appearance to bacterial pit disease. Myceliumeating mites can cause high yield losses. Although pesticides (permetrin, perefosmetil, anometrin, forbecide and dichlorvos) are applied, but due to growing ecological and health concerns, bio-control methods are being developed against pests. There is a need to exploit the use of plant products which have acaricidal properties and are safe for mushroom mycelium. Plantderived alkalis, alcohols, aldehydes, terpenoids and some monoterpenoids show fumigant properties and thus, the use of plant based pesticides is preferred against pests and diseases in mushroom production.
