the strawberry spider mite (ssm), tetranychus turkestani ugarov & nikolski, is an important pest of greenhouse cucumber in tropical and temperate regions of the world. the use of the host plant resistance is a basic method to reduce pesticide application in greenhouses. in this study, the biological responses of ssm to six greenhouse cucumber cultivars (puia, hedieh, milad ghadim, milad jad...

Previous investigations demonstrated that Fusarium oxysporum (Fo), which is not pathogenic to cucumbers, could serve as a biological control agent for managing Fusarium wilt of cucumber caused by Fo f. sp. cucumerinum (Foc) in Taiwan. However, thus far it has not been possible to separate the populations of pathogenic Fo from the nonpathogenic isolates that have biological control potential thr...
