DOI: 10.1007/s10493-019-00441-w
Abstract: We determined how conidia of arthropod-pathogenic fungi on leaves affected the behavior of two predators—Orius majusculus (Hemiptera: Anthocoridae) and Phytoseiulus persimilis (Acari: Phytoseiidae)—when offered a choice between preying on two-spotted spider mites, Tetranychus urticae (Acari:… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11814-019-0366-z
Abstract: Chlorination has been widely used to disinfect various microbials in the environment, but its fungicidal activity is known to be limited. Here, we demonstrate that a combinatorial treatment with free chlorine and phytic acid exerted… read more here.
