Aculops lycopersici (Acari: Eriophyoidea) is a pest in tomato cultivation worldwide. In recent years, the number of reports of A. lycopersici infestations in tomato have increased in Germany.

The participating farms represented ~ 3.5% of the 144...
Observation and restriction of Aculops lycopersici dispersal in tomato layer cultivationNARA Subscribed
The tomato russet mite Aculops lycopersici has become a challenging pest in tomato production in the EU. The number of available acaricides is low, and the efficacy of biological control is limited. With this study, we aim to understand better the unhindered dispersal dynamics and develop a method to reduce dispersal on plants. To better understand the dynamics of A. lycopersici dispersal in layered tomato cultivation under pr...
