The focus has been mostly on mites of the family Phytoseiidae for the control of plant feeding mites. This is an important family of acarine predators of plant pest mites, which are effectively used in agriculture worldwide. Besides the vast knowledge in several species in this family, there are as well many opportunities for other biological control agents, represented in an array of organisms which are constantly found by researchers worldwide. This has resulted in an increasing interest in predatory mite species within other families of the Acari orders Mesostigmata and Prostigmata, among others. This book compiles important developments with predatory mite species within the families Ascidae, Blattisociidae, Melicharidae, Laelapidae, Macrochelidae, Phytoseiidae, Stigmaeidae, Erythraeidae and Cheyletidae, which are emerging as important tools for integrated pest management. Pathogenic organisms attacking mites and the improvement of management techniques are also a subject of this book. The potential and gaps in knowledge in biological control using predatory mites and mite pathogens are addressed. 000746111 588__ $$aVendor-supplied metadata. 000746111 650_0 $$aMites as biological pest control agents. 000746111 650_0 $$aPests$$xBiological control. 000746111 7001_ $$aCarrillo, Daniel,$$eeditor. 000746111 7001_ $$aMoraes, Gilberto J. de$$q(Gilberto José),$$eeditor. 000746111 7001_ $$aPeña, Jorge E.,$$d1948-$$eeditor. 000746111 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319150413 000746111 830_0 $$aProgress in biological control ;$$vv. 19. 000746111 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000746111 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-15042-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000746111 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:746111$$pGLOBAL_SET 000746111 980__ $$aEBOOK 000746111 980__ $$aBIB 000746111 982__ $$aEbook 000746111 983__ $$aOnline 000746111 994__ $$a92$$bISE
