The predatory mite Neoseiulus cucumeris is an efficient beneficial against thrips. This study aims to develop a preventive control method against the thrips Frankliniella occidentalis in integrated production of roses in greenhouse. At the same time, the assumption of obtaining a better efficiency by increasing the frequency of releases and by...

Thrips species Frankliniella occidentalis and Thrips tabaci [Thysanoptera: Thripidae] are two important pests of greenhouse rose crops in the south of France. Thrips catches on yellow traps placed outside reach their peak 2 to 3 weeks before the thrips infestation peaks inside the greenhouse. The rapid increase in the number of thrips captured...

The thrips Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) and Thrips tabaci (Lindeman) ( Thysanoptera: Thripidae) are among the major pests in rose greenhouses in southern France. For integrated thrips management, the predator Neoseiulus cucumeris (Oudemans) ( Acarina: Phytoseiidae) is available as a biological control agent, but it is not always...

Thrips are widespread pests in ornamental greenhouses in France. The survey of thrips populations in greenhouses on rose and gerbera crops in two sites in Southern France, at the INRA Research Center (Sophia-Antipolis, France) and at the CREAT Experimental Center (Nice, France), were performed from 2006 to 2009. During that period, more than...

The two thrips species Frankliniella occidentalis Pergande and Thrips tabaci Lindeman [Thysanoptera: Thripidae] are serious pests of greenhouse roses in the Mediterranean region. The present study was undertaken in 2005 and 2006 in two 130 m(2) greenhouses in the South of France (Nice), on three varieties of roses: 'Aubade', 'Miss Paris' and...

Thrips have become major pests in rose greenhouses of southern France and Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs do not provide reliable control in summer. This study was undertaken in 2006, on 2 three rose cultivars ('Aubade', 'Miss Paris' and 'Sayonara'), in two 130 M greenhouses at the CREAT experimental station (Nice, Alpes Maritimes,...
