  The effect of acaricide Abamectin (Agrimec Gold® SC, 8.4%) was investigated to control the two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae on cucumber in greenhouses in Yazd and Jiroft. Abamectin (Agrimec Gold®) at two doses of 0.185 and 0.200 ml/lit was compared by Tetradifon (Tedion® EC, 2 ml/lit) and Sperimesifen (Oberon® SC, 0.5 ml/lit). Sampling and counting of live mites on the lower surface of the leaves were done at one day before and 3, 7 and 14 days after spraying respectively. Statistical analysis was conducted using SAS software with randomized complete block design. Results in both cities showed Abamectin had high mortality of mites at 3, 7 and 14 days after spraying and the effect of Sperimesifen was higher than Tetradifon. In Yazd province Abamectin treatment at doses of 0.185 and 0.200 ml/lit showed 100 percent mortality on mites at 3, 7 and 14 days after spraying and in Jiroft, efficacy of two doses were 92.79-99.48 % of mortality. In Yazd, efficacy of the sperimesifen was 66.1-99.5 percent but in Jiroft on day 3 Sperimesifen had caused 100 % of mite mortality and then decreased to 98.78% on day 14 after spraying. Investigation of preharvest interval of Abamectin at doses of 0.185 and 0.200 ml/lit in cucumber samples showed that 7 days after spraying is acceptable according to the Syngenta company claim, so based on efficiency test, it is recommended to use a dose of 0.185/lit of this acaricide to control TSSM in greenhouse cucumbers.

  Two spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae Koch is one of the most important pests of agricultural products that damages many plants, including cucumber in greenhouses. A new acaricide Oberon Speed®) abamectin, EC 8.1% + spiromesifen, SC 24% (0.4 ml/l and 0.5ml/l was compared to Kanemite® (acequinocyl, SC 15%) 1.25 ml/l, Danisaraba® (Cyflumetofen, SC 20%), 1 ml/l and control treatment (Water spraying) for efficacy against spider mite under greenhouses condition in Kerman (Jiroft city) and Isfahan (Isfahan city) provinces. Sampling of each treatment was done at one day before spraying then 3, 7 and 14 days after spraying respectively. The percentage of efficiency was calculated using Henderson-Tilton formula and statistical analysis was conducted using SAS software with randomized complete block design. In two provinces, the mean mortality of treatments was significant. In Jiroft, the mean mite mortality of Oberon Speed® 0.5 ml/l at 3 and 7 was 89.57% and 91.57% and the efficacy declined on 14th day (63.90%). During the test, Kanemite® and Oberon Speed® 0.4 ml/l caused mortality in the range of 76.30-89.04% and 56.89-75.63%. In Isfahan, the efficacy of Oberon Speed® 0.4 ml/l and 0.5 ml/l was 74.08-63.99% and 91.9.-79.61% respectively and Danisaraba® effected 71.98-87.38%. Result showed that mite mortality of Oberon Speed® 0.5 ml/l recorded more than 74.73% in both provinces and it can be recommended for control of spider mite in greenhouse cucumbers; there were no residues of Oberon Speed® 0.4 ml/l and 0.5 ml/l, after 7 days spraying.  Manuscript profile

  Dried fruits and nuts are one of Iran's export products, and their contamination with mites causes significant quantitative and qualitative damage to the product in the warehouses. This study was conducted to determine mite species in dried fruits and nuts in the city of Tehran from Tehran province and in the cities of Jahrom, Shiraz, Estahban, Darab, Zaraghan, Larestan and Nyriz from Fars province during 2014. In Total, 145 samples were collected from 13 types of products including pistachio, hazelnut, almond, fig, raisin, walnut, date, watermelon seed, pumpkin seed, sunflower seed, peanut, apricot and dried berries. Mite species were found in 67% and 45.5% of all products in Tehran, and Fars provinces, respectively, number of 8 species, 7 genera and 6 families of mites were identified from these two provinces. The dominant species in Tehran were Carpoglyphus lactis (Linné) (11.79%) as a pest, and Acaropsellina sollers (Kuzin) (76.4%) as a predatory mite. However, in Fars, Lepidoglyphus destructor (Schrank) (8.51%) was recognized as a pest species, while Blattisocius tarsalis (Berlese) showed the highest frequency (80.8%) as a predator. The average density of mites in Tehran and Fars provinces was 11 and 10.4 individuals/kg, respectively. The detected mites are newly reported for the fauna of dried fruits and nuts in Tehran (1) and Fars (2) provinces and are as follows:(1): Rhizoglyphus robini Claparèd; Tyrophagus putrescentiae (Schrank); Carpoglyphus lactis (Linné); Lepidoglyphus destructor (Schrank); Acaropsellina sollers (Kuzin); Androlaelaps casalis casalis (Berlese).(2): Lepidoglyphus destructor (Schrank); Acaropsellina sollers (Kuzin); Blattisocius tarsalis (Berlese); Blattisocius keegani Fox.

  European red mite Panonychus ulmi (Koch) is one of the most important pests in orchards including apple trees, across different parts of Iran. The effectiveness of the new acaricide acequinocyl was tested on the European red mite of apple tree in three provinces of West Azerbaijan, East Azerbaijan and Khorasan-e Razavi in 2016. Effect of acequinocyl 1 and 1.25 ml/lit was compared with spirodiclofen 0.5 ml/lit, phenazaquin 0.5 ml/lit, and control (watering). In order to determine the effectiveness of the treatment, the number of live mites on host leaves was recorded at one day before and 3, 7, 14 and 21 days after spraying. The percentage of efficiency of these treatments was calculated using Henderson-Tilton formula and the Analysis of Variance was done with SAS statistical software. In West Azerbaijan, there was a significant difference between treatments at 3 and 7 days and acequinocyl 1.25 ml/lit and phenazaquin were most effective in 3 days (97%). In East Azerbaijan, at 3 days, all acaricides showed more than 73% effectiveness. On the 21st day after spraying, spirodiclofen and acequinocyl (1 ml/lit.) had the highest effect compared to the other treatments (75.27% and 65.07% respectively). In Khorasan-e Razavi, all treatments were more than 93% effective at 14 days and the effect of acequinocyl 1.25 ml/l and phenazaquin treatments were similar (100%) on day 3. The results showed that acequinocyl at the both concentrations (1 ml/lit and 1.25 ml/lit) was effective in controlling European red mite on apple and could be a good alternative to older acaricides.
