Türkiye’de yeni zararlı bir thrips türü: Thrips hawaiiensis (Morgan, 1913) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)

Abstract

Hawaiian flower thrips, Thrips hawaiiensis (Morgan, 1913) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) is the first time reported from Mersin province in Turkey, on lemons in 2015. T. hawaiiensis caused silvery spots on young fruits and dissertations of the fruits, and also silvered plant tissue on nectarine fruits. Its typical damage on lemon fruits was widely observed in "Yediveren" limon group, which they are flowering throughout a year in the region. After its first detection, it quickly spread over the south eastern Mediterranean region of Turkey. Additionally, this thrips was recorded on some vegetables, ornamentals and field crop plants such as cotton, sunflower, maize and sesame. Brief information about morphology, biology, economic importance and distribution of this pest thrips are also given.

Resistance development, stability, cross‐resistance potential, biological fitness and biochemical mechanisms of spinetoram resistance in Thrips hawaiiensis (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)

“…Thrips hawaiiensis (Morgan) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), which originates in Oriental and Pacific regions, is one of the most common flower‐dwelling thrips . Mainly as a consequence of the obvious invasive capacity, marked thigmokinetic behavior, high fecundity and short life‐cycle of T. hawaiiensis , more attention is being paid to its introduction and its potential as a major pest of many crops, such as mango, banana, citrus, apple, tea, coffee and tobacco, and many horticultural plants and vegetables . Thrips hawaiiensis damages plants through both oviposition by adults and feeding by larvae on tender leaves, flowers and fruits, inducing spot lesions, scarring and bud malformations or reduced fruit set .…”

A Harmful Thrips Species on Lemon in The Eastern Mediterranean Region of Turkey: Thrips hawaiiensis (Morgan) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)

“…Thrips hawaiiensis (Morgan) was the second more common insects with a ratio of 18% in the total number of adults on vegetables (Pehlivan and Atakan, 2017). This pest detected was the first time in Turkey on lemons and spread quickly all over the Çukurova region of Turkey within one year (Atakan et al, 2015;Pehlivan and Atakan, 2017). Thysanoptera fauna of citrus in the Eastern Mediterranean Region of Turkey studied thoroughly.…”

“…The thrips, which contains approximately 5500 species, have a body size less than 1 mm with some of opportunistic and invasive species. Although feeding habits of thrips species are quite different, phytophagous (plant-feeders), mycophagous (fungus feeders) and predatory thrips are general feeding types of thrips (Morse and Hoodle, 2006;Atakan et al, 2015). The thrips species belonging to the genus Frankliniella, Scirtothrips and Thrips hawaiiensis (Morgan) are known to be the most economically damaging species (Mound and Teulon, 1995;Morse and Hoodle, 2006;Marullo and De Grazia, 2017).…”

“…In a previous study (Atakan et al, 2015), diagnosis, biology distribution, host plants, and damage degree of T. hawaiiensis was given. In the current study, the recent status of T. hawaiiensis on citrus over past four years has been presented.…”

Population development of Frankliniella occidentalis and Thrips hawaiiensis in constant and fluctuating temperatures

“…This pest species is currently extensively distributed throughout the world (Kirk & Terry, ; Reitz, ). Thrips hawaiiensis (Morgan) is also a highly polyphagous insect found in Asia (Aliakbarpour & Salmah, ; Murai, ), Europe (Atakan, Ölçülü, Pehlivan, & Satar, ; Reynaud, Balmès, & Pizzol, ), and North America (Goldarazena, ). Both species share many ecological niches and biological characteristics, such as a similar body size (1–2 mm), short life history (more than 10 generations per year) and preference for feeding on plant flowers (Cao et al, ; Murai, ).…”
