BURSA VE YALOVA İLLERİNDE YETİŞTİRİLEN BÖĞÜRTLENLERDE ZARARLI Acalitus essigi Hassan, (ACARİ: ERİOPHYİDAE)’NİN YAYILIŞI, BULAŞMA ORANI, DOĞAL DÜŞMANLARI VE BAZI BİYOLOJİK ÖZELLİKLERİNİN BELİRLENMESİ

Öz

Çalışma meyvelerin olgunlaşmasını engelleyerek önemli ölçüde ürün kayıplarına neden olan böğürtlenin önemli bir zararlısı, Acalitus essigi (Hassan) (Acari: Eriophyidae)’nin yayılışını, bulaşma oranını, bazı biyolojik özelliklerini ve doğal düşmanlarını belirlemek amacıyla Yalova ve Bursa illerinde 2011–2012 yıllarında yürütülmüştür. Basit tesadüf örnekleme yöntemine göre yapılan çalışma sonucunda üretim alanlarının tamamı zararlı ile bulaşık bulunmuş, bulaşma oranı ise %1–%45 arasında değişmiştir. Böğürtlen meyvelerindeki zararlının yoğunluğu 0–5 skala (0–50>birey) değerlerinde belirlenmiştir. Laboratuvar koşullarında zararlının tomurcuklardaki yoğunluğu ise 2011 ve 2012 yıllarında bant başına sırasıyla ortalama (X̄±SE), 1.3±0.2 ve 2.1±0.24 birey olarak saptanmıştır. Doğa koşullarında bitkinin tomurcuk ve çiçeklerinde zararlının herhangi bir biyolojik evresi belirlenemez iken böğürtlen meyvelerinde nimf ve ergin evrelerine yoğun olarak rastlanılmıştır. Doğal düşman olarak avcı akar, Neoseiulus californicus (Mc Gregor) (Acari: Phytoseiidae) ve Cecidomyiidae familyasından bir tür saptanmıştır.

DETERMINATION OF SPREADING, INFESTATION RATIO, NATURAL ENEMIES AND SOME BIOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF Acalitus essigi Hassan, (Acari: Eriophyidae) DAMAGING ON BLACKBERRIES GROWN IN BURSA AND YALOVA PROVINCES

Abstract

This study was conducted in order to determine spreading, infestation rate, some biological characteristics and natural enemies of Acalitus essigi (Hassan) (Acari: Eriophyidae) causing considerably product losses by inhibiting ripening of berries, the one of most important blackberry pests, in Yalova and Bursa provinces in 2011–2012. As a result of study carried out according to simple random sampling method all of the cultivation areas were found to be infested with this pest and the rates of infestation were varied from 1% to 45. Densities of pest in the blackberry fruits under the laboratory conditions were determined as 0–5 scale degree (0–50>individual). Densities of this pest in buds in the natural conditions were determined as mean (X̄±SE), 1.3±0.2 and 2.1±0.24 individual/adhesive tapes. Whilst any biological stage of pest was not found in plant bud and flowers, but nymph and adult stages were found in fruits. As natural enemies, predatory mite, Neoseiulus californicus (Mc Gregor) (Acari: Phytoseiidae) and a fly species belonging to Cecidomyiidae family was determined.
