Abstract | ||||
The date palm, Phoenix dactylifera L. is an important fruit trees growing in the New Valley, Egypt. The old world date mite, Oligonychus afrasiaticus (McGregor, 1939) (Acari: Tetranychidae) is one of the most harmful pests of the date palms, due to the economic damage caused in the production of dates especially in the New Valley, Egypt. Therefore, the efficiency of some recommended chemical compounds (i.e., abamectin (1.8% EC), chlorfenapyr (36% SC), fenopyroximate (5% EC), cyflumetofen (20% SC) and hexythiazox (10% WP) against the pest was estimated under laboratory conditions. | ||||
