“…Flourishing in temperate zones worldwide, the apple holds a paramount position as one of the most economically and culturally valuable species [5]. Today, it stands as one of the most extensively cultivated fruit trees globally, ranking as the fourth-most produced fruit worldwide, trailing behind bananas, oranges, and grapes [6]. The global production of apples reached approximately 63 million Agronomy 2024, 14, 457 2 of 14 tonnes (MT) in 2016, with China holding the title of the world's leading producer [7].…”

This study investigates the infestation dynamics of Panonychus ulmi McGregor 1916 and its associated predators in Malus domestica borkh orchards across three towns in Morocco: Midelt, Ait Sebaa, and Imouzzer-Kender, situated in the Fez-Meknes and Draa-Tafilalt regions. Ait Sebaa (Fez-Meknes region), characterized by high temperatures and a lower altitude, exhibited a substantial increase in P. ulmi and its predators. In contrast, Midelt (Draa-Tafilalt region), with the highest altitude, demonstrated lower mite counts. Imouzzer-Kender (Fez-Meknes region), at an intermediate altitude, showed moderate mite levels. Detailed findings reveal a positive correlation between P. ulmi and temperature, as well as with phytoseiid mites. Conversely, a negative correlation exists between P. ulmi and altitude. Additionally, a positive correlation between phytoseiid mites and temperature is identified. Overall, this study provides valuable information on the ecological interactions between mites, temperature, altitude and humidity in distinct Moroccan regions, highlighting the need to take regional specificities into account in pest management strategies.
