Twospotted Spider

Greenhouse-grown `Imperial Delicious' apple (Malus domestics Borkh.) and `Redhaven' peach (Prunus persica Batsch.) trees were inoculated during the summer with three densities of European red mite (ERM) (Panonychus ulmi Koch) and twospotted spider mite (TSM) (Tetranychus urticae Koch). As ERM- and TSM-days increased, net photosynthesis (Pn), transpiration (Tr), and total chlorophyll content (TCHL) of apple leaves decreased linearly. At similar densities, TSM was more damaging than ERM to apple leaf gas exchange. Water-use efficiency (WUE) of apple declined similarly with increasing mite-days for both mite species. Specific leaf weight (SLW) of apple increased with TSM-days. Pn, Tr, TCHL, and WUE of peach declined linearly with increasing ERM- and TSM-days, and the rates of decline were similar for both mite species. Mites did not affect peach SLW. These results indicate that greenhouse-grown peach is more tolerant than apple to mite feeding.
