Conteúdo: | The citrus rust mite (CRM) and the pink citrus rust mite (PCRM) are found on all citrus varieties throughout Florida. Although they can co-exist on the same leaf or fruit, the CRM is usually the prevalent species. Both rust mites are important pests of fruit grown for the fresh market. On some specialty varieties such as Sunburst, damage is particularly severe on stems and foliage, causing leaf injury and possible abscission. Fruit damage is the main concern with other varieties. Both mites feed on green stems, leaves and fruit and have four developmental stages during their life cycles: egg, first instar (larva), second instar (nymph) and adult. Egg deposition begins within two days after the female reaches sexual maturity and continues throughout her life of14 to 20 days. Eggs are laid singly or in clusters on the surface of leaves, fruit and green twigs.
