Vine Mealybug

The vine mealybug, Planococcus ficus (Signoret), and the citrus mealybug, Planococcus citri (Risso), are currently the most economically important pseudococcids in vineyards in Italy (Dalla Montà et al., 2001).  Pl. ficus is also considered to be a key pest in many other countries (Ben-Dov, 1994).  The two species cause severe damage to the host plant, and significantly reduce the crop due to the production of honeydew, which allows the growth of sooty molds, and to their potential as virus vectors.  The vine mealybug, in particular, is known to transmit grapevine leafroll and corky-bark diseases (Engelbrecht & Kasdorf, 1990; Tanne et al., 1989).

Abstract Planococcus citri is a highly polyphagous, adaptable mealybug that can feed on many host plants in a variety of conditions, and can reproduce rapidly. It has been reported on over 200 host-plant species belonging to 191 genera and 82 families, and can seriously damage many crops, particularly citrus and glasshouse tomatoes. It is known to transmit some plant virus diseases like Cacao swollen shoot virus. The mealybug is of Old World origin, but its polyphagy has facilitated its spread about the world by human transport of infested plants over many years, and it is now established in in all the temperate and tropical zoogeographic regions, and lives under glass in higher latitudes. Its small size and cryptic habits makes it difficult to detect and identify at plant quarantine inspection. The increase in international trade in fresh plant material in recent years is facilitating its continued spread.
