“…For instance, thrips ( F. occidentalis ), aphids ( Aphis craccivora ), and mite ( Tetranychus urticae and Tyrophagus putrescentiae ) have been used as preys to evaluate their impact on the development and fecundity of O. similis (Bush et al., 1993; Butler & O'Neil, 2007; Venzon et al., 2002; Zhang et al., 2022). Among them, F. occidentalis has been shown to be the most suitable prey, demonstrating favourable outcomes in terms of O. similis growth and reproductive capacity (Zhang et al., 2012). Furthermore, our results indicated that a higher thrips density is more beneficial for rearing O. similis .…”

“…Orius species exhibit variable prey, preferences, considerably affecting their development, reproduction, and overall population dynamics (Carrillo-Arámbula & Infante, 2021;Mouratidis et al, 2022;Sobhy et al, 2010;Zhang et al, 2012). Zhang et al (2012) and Chyzik et al (1995) showed that Orius bugs were highly effective predators of thrips, which are a common pest in many crops. Moreover, studies have shown that Orius bugs prefer thrips over other potential prey species (Bernardo et al, 2017;Bonte et al, 2015;Wang et al, 2014;Zhang et al, 2013).…”

“…To address this issue effectively, it is essential to develop sustainable pest management strategies that incorporate the use of natural predators such as Orius . Among several Orius species, O. similis has demonstrated remarkable proficiency in controlling F. occidentalis (Huang et al., 2022; Zhang et al., 2012). Moreover, incorporating Orius in pest management strategies reduces reliance on expensive and environmentally harmful chemical control methods.…”

Orius similis Zheng, a predatory bug that feeds on Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande), a pest that damages vegetables and ornamental plants by feeding and transforming plant viruses. O. similis is an omnivorous predator on thrips, as well as pollen. Our study investigated the impact of five different amount densities of thrips and abundant loofah pollen on the survival, development, fecundity, and consumption of O. similis. The performance of O. similis nymphs and adults was significantly affected by the density of thrips and loofah pollen on which they fed. The highest survival and shortest development period of O. similis nymphs after feeding on 40 thrips/d, while the lowest survival rate and longest period were observed after feeding on only 5 thrips. Feeding on loofah pollen alone also significantly increased survival and decreased the nymph development period compared with feeding on 20 thrips/d. The highest prey consumption occurred at densities of 30 and 40 thrips/d, while the lowest prey consumption occurred at a thrips density of 5, regardless of whether the O. similis were nymphs or female adults. However, adding loofah pollen decreased prey consumption of nymphs and adult females. In addition, O. similis showed higher fecundity and longevity when feeding on 40 thrips/d compared to other thrips densities and adding loofah pollen. Adding loofah pollen also increased fecundity and longevity compared to feeding on thrips alone at the same density, regardless of the thrips' density. Therefore, a high thrips abundant density daily was beneficial for the development, fecundity, and longevity of O. similis, and adding loofah pollen can enhance their performance.

Nine herbivore-induced plant volatiles (HIPVs) and one methyl jasmonate were field-tested for their attractiveness to the main predators in cotton fields of North China in 2 yr. The main predators including ladybird beetles (Propylaea japonica (Thunberg), Harmonia axyridis (Pallas)), green lacewings (Chrysoplera sinica (Tjeder), Chrysopa spp.), predatory bugs (Geocoris pallidipennis (Costa), Orius spp., Nabis spp.) and spiders (Misumenops tricuspidatus (Fabricius), Erigonidium graminicolum (Sundevall)) were investigated. Two-way ANOVA indicated that the volatile compound, year, and the volatile compound × year interaction affected the behavioral responses of predators. It was found that indole significantly attracted the ladybird beetle P. japonica, H. axyridis. Linalool could attract P. japonica. Green lacewing C. sinica was significantly attracted by α-pinene and β-pinene, whereas indole significantly attracted Chrysopa spp. Methyl jasmonate and α-pinene showed significant attraction to small-flower bug Orius spp. In addition, the attraction of α-humulene to C. sinica, attractiveness of β-pinene to Orius spp. and Chrysopa spp., were observed only in one of the two years. However, the big-eyed bug G. pallidipennis, damsel bug Nabis spp., spiders M. tricuspiata and E. graminicolum did not respond to any of the tested HIPVs. These results are discussed with respect to possible applications of a synthetic attractant for main predators in cotton fields.
