Em duas regiões da Bahia - Litoral Norte (LN) e Recôncavo Baiano (RB) quantificaram-se a dinâmica espaço-temporal da infestação de plantas cítricas pelo ácaro Brevipalpus phoenicis. Dez pomares de cada região foram avaliados mensalmente (de abril de 2008 a fevereiro de 2011), nos quais 21 plantas tiveram três frutos/planta vistoriados com lupa de 10x para registrar a presença ou ausência do ácaro. A proporção média de plantas infestadas variou entre 0,38 e 1,0. Em frutos, a proporção mínima de infestação foi 0,10 e máxima de 0,73 no LN e 0,66 no RB. O processo de infestação foi sazonal, com mais unidades infestadas na primavera-verão (Nemenyi, p<0,05). A análise de densidade espectral mostrou a ocorrência de dois tipos de ciclos: um com período aproximado de 2 meses, possivelmente relacionado com a biologia do ácaro e outro anual, decorrente da interação vetor-hospedeiro-ambiente. Em ambas as regiões, a aleatoriedade caracterizou o padrão espacial da infestação do ácaro intra e interpomares. Não foram observados sintomas de leprose dos citros no RB.

Relações de resistência cruzada entre o dicofol e alguns acaricidas recomendados na cultura de citros foram avaliadas em Brevipalpus phoenicis (Geijskes) para identificar produtos alternativos a serem utilizados em um programa de manejo da resistência ao dicofol. Linhagens de B. phoenicis susceptível e resistente ao dicofol foram testadas com os acaricidas óxido de fenbutatina, propargite, fempiroximato e bromopropilato. A linhagem de B. phoenicis resistente ao dicofol apresentou resistência cruzada positiva ao bromopropilato e resistência cruzada negativa ao fempiroximato. Não foi detectada resistência cruzada entre o dicofol e os acaricidas óxido de fenbutatina e propargite. Os resultados indicam que dentre os acaricidas testados, somente o bromopropilato deve ser evitado em programas de manejo da resistência de B. phoenicis ao dicofol.

Brevipalpus Phoenicis

ABSTRACT Among the pests of citrus, one of the most important is the red and black flat mite Brevipalpus phoenicis (Geijskes), which transmits the Citrus leprosis virus C (CiLV-C).When a rational pest control plan is adopted, it is important to determine the correct timing for carrying out the control plan. Making this decision demands constant follow-up of the culture through periodic sampling where knowledge about the spatial distribution of the pest is a fundamental part to improve sampling and control decisions. The objective of this work was to study the spatial distribution pattern and build a sequential sampling plan for the pest. The data used were gathered from two blocks of Valencia sweet orange on a farm in São Paulo State, Brazil, by 40 inspectors trained for the data collection. The following aggregation indices were calculated: variance/ mean ratio, Morisita index, Green’s coefficient, and k parameter of the negative binomial distribution. The data were tested for fit with Poisson and negative binomial distributions using the chi-square goodness of fit test. The sequential sampling was developed using Wald’s Sequential Probability Ratio Test and validated through simulations. We concluded that the spatial distribution of B. phoenicis is aggregated, its behavior best fitted to the negative binomial distribution and we built and validated a sequential sampling plan for control decision-making.

Tea production in Kenya is under threat due to red crevice mites (Brevipalpus phoenicis) infestations during droughts. Cultural pests control practices, e.g. use of resistant/tolerant cultivars are used in their control since pesticide use is prohibited. Plants release volatile organic compounds (OVOCs) that may influence susceptibility/resistance to pest infestations. OVOCs profiles released by 11 tea cultivars were evaluated to assess relationship between OVOCs and cultivar tolerance/susceptibility to B. phoenicis. Five clones were susceptible, with high B. phoenicis infestations while four clones were resistant, exhibiting low infestation levels. The infestations were linearly correlated to (E)-2-hexenal, (Z)-3-hexenal (p≤0.001), (Z)-3-hexenol, (Z)-3-hexenyl acetate, linalool, germacrene D, sum of green leaf volatiles (GLVs) (p≤0.01), 1-pentene-3-ol, hexanal, indole and (E)-β-ocimene (p≤0.05) levels. Most of aromatic compounds, some terpenoids compounds and sum of aromatic compounds were inversely (p≤0.05) correlated with B. phoenicis infestations. Susceptible varieties to B. phoenicis emitted high amounts of GLVs, especially (E)-2-hexenal, (Z)-3-hexenal, (Z)-3-hexen-1-ol and (Z)-3-hexenyl acetate. Results demonstrate that OVOCs profile may provide selection criteria for cultivars resistant to B. phoenicis infestations. Resistant cultivars are recommended for commercial exploitation in red crevice mites prone areas while breeding/selection programmes should incorporate OVOCs profiles to develop tea cultivars that resist red crevice mites attack.
