In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the applicant Agro-Kanesho Kabushiki Kaisha submitted a request to the competent national authority in Greece to modify the existing maximum residue level (MRL) for the active substance acequinocyl in strawberries. The data submitted in support of the request were found to be sufficient to derive an MRL proposal for strawberries based on the indoor GAP. Adequate analytical methods for enforcement are available to control the residues of acequinocyl in strawberries at the validated LOQ of 0.01 mg/kg. Based on the risk assessment results, EFSA concluded that the short-term and long-term intake of residues resulting from the use of acequinocyl according to the reported agricultural practice is unlikely to present a risk to consumer health.

Spider mite resistance to miticides in South Carolina strawberry and implications for improved integrated pest management.

Exp Appl Acarol

Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae), twospotted spider mite, is a major secondary pest of strawberry and can cause significant yield loss. Tetranychus urticae is typically controlled using miticides, which has led to rapid resistance development. In South Carolina (USA), extension agents and growers have reported field failures of miticides (inadequate pest suppression), but resistance has not been quantitatively determined.

Not all predators are equal: miticide non-target effects and differential selectivity.

Pest Manag Sci

June 2020

USDA-ARS, Temperate Tree Fruit and Vegetable Crop Research Unit, Wapato, WA, USA.

Background: Biological control in conventional agroecosystems involves the integration of chemical and conservation tactics, requiring knowledge of pesticide non-target effects on key natural enemies. Even for natural enemy groups such as predatory mites (Acari: Phytoseiidae), where pesticide non-target effects have been thoroughly examined, there may be significant differences in species susceptibility to specific active ingredients, including newer selective products. Using bioassays, we examined lethal (female mortality) and sublethal (fecundity, egg hatch, larval survival) effects of ten miticides on a spider mite pest (Tetranychus urticae) and three insectary-purchased predatory mites (Phytoseiulus persimilis, Neoseiulus californicus, and N.
