Abstract

Coincident with investigations on chemical control of wheat curl mite, Aceria tulipae (K.), a vector of wheat-streak mosaic, it was necessary that the area of heaviest and most uniform populations on the wheat plant be determined for mite counts. Both greenhouse screening trials and field application tests of miticides are being conducted currently. Since little is known concerning this mite, certain biological observations are recorded below for the information of other workers.
