ABSTRACT
The complex of predaceous and parasitic mites of Egypt and their potential use in regulating the populations of mite and insect pests in orchards are discussed. Programs of controlling acarine pests, either by exploiting naturally occurring predaceous mites or by the release of phytoselids and the future research needed for the utilization of predaceous mites in biological control are dealt with herein. |
