Rovmidden Amblyseius swirskii er en nykomling på nyttedyrmarkedet i Europa, og anbefales bl.a. i agurk, tomat, paprika, krydderurter, jordbær og diverse prydplanter. Produsenten hevder at A. swirskii etablerer seg lett og oppformerer seg raskt, og at den effektivt bekjemper veksthusmellus, bomullsmellus, nelliktrips og amerikansk blomstertrips. Mattilsynet har nå godkjent Amblyseius swirskii for bruk i norske veksthus fram til 30.06.2012. Vi har prøvd rovmidden mot veksthusmellus og nelliktrips i veksthusagurk, og resultatene tyder på at den kan være et viktig bidrag til bekjempelsen av veksthusmellus og nelliktrips.

The pine wood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, which is indigenous to North America, was introduced to Asia in the early 1900 and now causes severe damage to susceptible pine species in Japan, China, Korea and Taiwan. B. xylophilus was included in the A1 list of quarantine organisms by EPPO (European Plant Protection Organization) in 1985. B. xylophilus was reported for the first time in Europe in Portugal in 1999. There are more than 50 described species within the genus Bursaphelenchus worldwide, that are associated with coniferous and deciduous trees and spread by insect vectors. Within this genus is a group of morphologically very similar species; B. xylophilus, B. mucronatus, B. fraudulentus, B. kolymensis, B. conicaudatus and B. luxuriosae. This group of species is often referred to as the "B. xylophilus group". Due to the morphological similarity of the species, identification of Bursaphelenchus species in the B. xylophilus group is difficult. The common method of molecular identification for separating species within the B. xylophilus group is the use of ITS-RFLP (Hoyer et al. 1998). We have developed a multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method with specific primers, and the primers amplified product were 740, 340 and 300 bp for B. xylophilus, B. fraudulentus and B. mucronatus respectively. No cross reactions on the three studied species were observed. In contrast to the previously described PCR-RFLP method, this new method allows detection not only on pure isolates, but also on crude nematode suspensions from wood samples, and it could be very useful for quarantine purposes.
