structure: The thesis has 119 pages includes introduction, content (3 chapters), conclusion and suggestion with 36 tables, figures The references has 125 individuals with 41 Vietnamese references, 82 English references and references downloaded on the Internet CHAPTER I SCIENTIFIC BASIS AND LITERATURE REVIEWS 1.1 Scienfific basis The utilization of pesticides on tea are not the same in different countries lead to the variation in rresistance formation in tea plantation area Resistance management solutions of red spider mite are also different Consequently, research on insecticide resistance of red spider mite is needed to conduct in particular condition 1.2 Oversea studies 1.2.1 Biological, ecological characteristics and development regulation of red spider mite In South India, under laboratory condition with the average temparature is 25±2oC, relative humidity is 85±5% and on UPASI-10 variety, the average duration from 1st instar to instar was 8.10±1.65 days Lifespan of male and female adults are 12.60±2.15 days and 24.20±3.50 days in average, respectively Gender ratio was 1:2.25 (male:female) Egg laid ability was 120.8 ± 13,80 eggs/ female (Sudarmani, 2004) Red spider mite prefer sunlight, thus tea plants which are cultivated in area without shade will be damaged more severely than that with shade (Das, 1959b) In southern India, red spider mite has successive generations and appears on tea plants throughout the year and the density reaches a peak from March to April Low temparature, high humidity and heavy rain has detrimental influence to the development of red spider mite (Sudarmani, 2004) 1.2.2 Actual situation of insecticide utilization to control red spider mite on tea In Shizuoka (Japan), tea growners spray 16.9-21.6 times per year and 4.1-8.1 times per year in average to control insect pest and disiease pest, respectively (Takafuji and Amano, 2001) Recently, there are number of new insecticides such as Propagite, Fenpyroximate, Hexythiazox, Bifenthrin, Fenazaquin and Spiromesifen has been used to manage red spider mite (Anomyous, 2012; Babu and Muraleedharan, 2010; …) 1.2.3 Resistance of red spider mite The repeated use of acaricide leads to the increase in serious damage of red spider mite to tea production The decline of susceptibility of red spider mite against insecticide groups is one of the reasons for increasing number of populations (Sarker and Mukhopadhyay, 2008; Roy et al., 2008; Shahoo et al., 2003) According to Roy (2009), among chemicals which have been tested on red spider mite populations in Terai and Dooars - India, LC50 of Ethion and Dicofol were higher than 300ppm LC50 of Propagite were 46.246 and 97.110 in average in Terai and Dooars, respectively That of Fenazaquin and Fenpropathrin were less than 10ppm In northern of Bengal, India, the resistance against chemicals namely Ethion, Dicofol, Propargite, Fenazaquin and Fenpropathrin of red spider mite have observed and the results showed that Terai popupation had lowest susceptibility to all of them in comparision with Dooars pupolation Susceptibility level corresponds to number of acaricides in regions indicated selective population pressure caused by acaricide (Roy et al 2010a) In laboratory, LC50 value of Ethion, Dicofol, Profenofos, Propargite, Fenpropathrin, Ferazaquin and Abamectin of populations in the northern of India were 687.18ppm, 534.04ppm, 241.684ppm, 90.256ppm, 12.549ppm, 4.319ppm, 2.405ppm, respectively Among number of acaricide, Abamectin has highest toxic and Ethion is opposite LC50 values went down corresponding to egg-killed insecticides namely Fenazaquin, Profenofos, Propagite, Fenpropathrin, Ethion, Dicofol and Abamectin, respectively (Roy et al., 2012) In Terai, India, population in which Ethion group were used frequently, LC50 value was 79-100 times higher in comparision with others where acaricide was not used The result was similar with Fenpropathrin in which LC50 value was 73-108 times higher than others without using acaricides (Soma et al., 2017) 1.2.4 Management of the resistance of red spider mite According to Sudarmani (2004), in north India, the proportion of tea leave which is infected by red spider mite in tea field without shaded trees was high because of high temperature and long lighting time on leave Tea plant with shaded trees develops well and reduces number of red spider mite According to Roy et al (2010a), egg-killed insecticide utilization is one of the strategic solution for red spider mite management Roy et al (2010b) also said that at egg stage, Fenazaquin had lowest value of LC50, followed by Profenofos, Propargite, Fenpropathrin, Ethion, Dicofol, Abamectin and Azadiractin, respectively The process of red spider mite management includes: 1) Measures should be taken (Two rounds of spray at 15 days interval) during December and January in young and unpruned tea; skiffed tea – February; pruned tea – early March; 2) after severe attack of mite impose two rounds of applications must be followed at an interval of -10 days (April – October: days and Nov-March: 10 days); 3) avoiding an application of sulfur formulation during hot sunshine and dry spell; 4) collecting tea leaves on the surface; 5) during full cropping seasons spraying should be undertaken as spot treatment only; 6) for pruned tea monitoring is necessary soon after tipping; 7) avoid spraying at noon in sunny weather; 8) mixing of acaricides with foliar nutrients, insecticides and others should be avoided for retaining the toxicity of the acaricides and better control in red spider prone sections; 9) remove serious infected tea plants; and 10) thorough drenching of top, middle and bottom hamper of bushes with pray fluid spray fluid is mandatory to kill the residual population (Das, 1960; Gurusubramanian Borthakur, 2005) 1.3 Studies in Vietnam 1.3.1 Biological, ecological characteristics and development regulation of red spider mite Nguyen Van Dinh (1994) reported that there were spider mite spicies on tea: false spider mite, red spider mite and broad mite The red spider mite is the most dangerous one among them Adult has pair of legs, segmented leg with a lot of scattered sharp hairs The body is separated into parts, the head and chest + abdomen with the size are 0,06 – 0,09mm x 0,05 – 0,07mm, 0,25 – 0,31mm x 0,17 – 0,24mm, respectively One to two days after hatching, female starts laying eggs which have flat sphere shape and the size is around 0,09-0,12mm There is a curve and small hair in the middle of the egg New egg laid has light pink color, then turn to red-brown and getting dark brown before hatching New hatching red spider mite has light pink body, the size is 0,13-0,15mm x 0,100,12mm with pair of legs (Nguyen Van Hung and Nguyen Van Tao 2006) In the laboratory condition with the temperature and relative humidity (RH) are 27,5oC and 81,6%, respectively, lifetimes of red spider mite on Trung Du Xanh and PH1 varieties are 10,70 days and 10,86 days, respectively (Pham Thi Mai, 2010) Depend on environmental conditions, particularly temperature, red spider mite’s lifespan vary from 11,2 to 12,8 days Each female is able to lay up to 79 eggs, oviposition rate is highest at the date of 5th – 10th from the first day of laying egg Female can lay egg during 20 days The most favourite temperature for the development of red spider mite is 30 oC, number of egg laid increase to 88 eggs/each and lifetime is only 11,2 days compared to 12,8 days at 25oC (Nguyen Thai Thang, 2000) According to Nguyen Khac Tien (1994), red spider mite is the most dangerous insect pests on tea There are two peak of density per year, the 1st is from Ferbruary to May and the 2nd is from September to November 1.3.2 Actual situation of insecticide utilization to control red spider mite on tea The number of spraying varied from to 16 times per year in key points of tea plantation in Ba Vi district, periodic spraying rate is still high, up to 75% and most of farmers spraied without “4 right regulation” (Nguyen Thi Bich Thuy, 2009) According to the investigation in Thai Nguyen province from 2005 to 2006, 28.8% to 33.3% of interviewed farmers admitted that they spraied insecticide less than 16 times per year while 60.0%-66.7% of interviewers did 16 to 20 times per year (Nguyen Van Toan and Pham Van Lam, 2014) 1.3.3 Resistance of red spider mite Although insecticides which have been spraied on tea plant, have broad spectrum effects, however, not work well with red spider mite and they even promote the development of this pest Otherwise, those chemicals destroy natural enemies, thus red spider mite is able to develop much more than before spraying (Nguyen Van Hung and Nguyen Van Tao, 2006) 1.3.4 Management of the resistance of red spider mite There is not any deeply research on resistance of red spider mite against chemical in Vietnam There are some researches on management of red spider mite on tea (Nguyen Van Dinh, 1994; Luong Thi Huyen, 2017; Nguyen Tran Oanh, 2012; Nguyen Thai Thang, 2000; Nguyen Thi Thu et al., 2016; Vu Thi Thuong et al., 2015) CHAPTER II MATERIAL, CONTENTS AND METHODOLOGY

Van Tao, 2006) 2.5 Analysis The efficacy of insecticides was canculated by Abbott formula (1925) ; Sarmah (1999) and Henderson-Tilton (1995) LC50 was calculated by Finney's 1971 Probit program Resistance indices (Ri) was determined according to FAO (1980) Data was processed by IRRISTAT 5.0 program CHAPTER III RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 3.1 Field investigation of pesticide utiliation’s status in red spider mite management in Phu Tho province and Thai Nguyen province 3.1.1 Insects and spider mites on tea in Thai Nguyen province and Phu Tho province 3.1.1.1 Insects and spider mites on tea through interview with farmers In two research area, green hopper and mosquito bug are two major insects on tea The ratio of farmers who consider that green hopper is the most popular one in Thai Nguyen province and Phu Tho province were 99.8% and 97.1%, respectively In term of posquito bug, those were 77.1% and 70.9%, respectively In Thai Nguyen province, the percentage of farmers who believe that red spider mite is serious threat to tea production was 81.0% in average meanwhile it was 67.3% in average in Phu Tho province 3.1.1.2 Insects and spider mites on tea through field investigation In 2004, we found 13 spieces on tea including insects and spider mite in Thai Nguyen province and Phu Tho province The common spicies (with frequency encounter is over 50%) were green hopper, mosquito bug, and red spider mite in Thai Nguyen province and mosquito bug and red spider mite in Phu Tho province 3.1.2 Pesticie utilization status in pest management on tea 3.1.2.1 Number of pesticide application on tea in one year According to an interview in Hoa Binh commune, La Bang commune, and Phan Me commune (Thai Nguyen province) in 2014, tea growners spraied 14.4 times/year in average (vary feom 12.37 to 16.89 times) In Phu Tho province, the interview was conducted in Phu Ho commune, Tien Phu commune, and Vo Mieu commune, the result illustrated that tea growners applied pesticides with lower quantity than that in Thai Nguyen province and the average application was 12.0 times per year (vary from 9.82 to 14.16 times) 3.1.2.2 Concentration and doze Table 3.4 Concentration of

were quite high with 71.27% in Thai Nguyen province and 78.15% in Phu Tho province In Thai Nguyen province, 8.39% of interviewers said they applied pesticides with 2-3 times in comparision with the recommendation from producers In term of Phu Tho province, it was 5.68% The number of farmer who increased concentration and doze of pesticide in Thai Nguyen province was higher than that in Phu Tho province (Table 3.4) 3.1.2.3 Sort of pesticide The active ingredients namely Abamectin and Emamectin benzoate (Avermectin group) were used popularly to control insect pests on tea The percentage of farmer households who applied abamectin were 31.32% and 26.93% in Thai Nguyen province and Phu Tho province, respectively Otherwise, the ratio of farmer households who spraied Emamectin benzoate were 10.19% and 18.15%, respectively In term of other active ingredients, the numbers varied from 0.14% to 6.34% in Thai Nguyen province and from 0.02% to 5.16% in Phu Tho province The mixture of pesticides applying to control insect pests on tea was a combination between abamectin and emamectin benzoate (3.67% farmer households used/ highest) and mixture of Fenitrothinon and Trichlorfon (5.16% farmer households used/ highest) in Thai Nguyen province and Phu Tho province, respectively Table 3.7 Single active ingredients were used to manage red spider mite in 2014 Proportion of

resistance against Propargite itself Ri of this population reached a peak at 13.2 There was not any report of the resistance of this population against other active ingresients belong to different groups Ri of above population to other active ingredients varied from 0.7 to 2.5 They have not shown across - resistance phenomenon against Dimethoate, Ri was 2.5 only (table 3.17) 3.4 Solutions in management of resistance of red spider mite in IPM method 3.4.1 Variety Red spider mite usually arises and reaches a peak of density twice per year in May and October Trung Du variety has highest density of 6.43 individuals/ leave at the peak in the end of May At the same time, the density of red spider mite on other varieties LDP1, TRI 777, PH8 was lower than that of Trung Du variety and they were 6.29; 5.61; and 5.02 individuals/ leave, respectively In term of Kim Tuyen, Phuc Van Tien variety, red spider mite’s density were significant lower at 4.37 and 4.06 individuals/ leave, respectively Farmer should choose tea varieties which are less infected by red spider mite when they cultivate new plants 3.4.2 Cultivation measures 3.4.2.1 Cultivation shaded tree The density of red spider mite on tea field with shaded tree is always higher than that without shaded tree At the peak of density, there were 6.15 and 9.29 individuals/leave in plantation area with and without shaded tree, respectively Consequently, planting shaded tree leads to the reduction in using acaricide Fifure 3.2 The effectiveness of shaded tree on density of red spider mite on Trung Du variety (La Bang, Dai Tu, Thai Nguyen, 2015) Notice: Treatment 1: Density of red spider mite on tea field with sahded tree Treatment 2: Density of red spider mite on tea field without sahded tree 3.4.2.2.The effect of branch cutting method The density of red spider mite reached a peak at the end of May 2015 in Treatment and it was 5.14 individuals/leave, meanwhile it was 8.07 head/leave in term of Treatment In conclusion, the density in former was significant lower than that of the latter It was extremely consistent with previous researches conducted by Das (1960) and Nguyen Van Dinh (1994) In addition, application of the former method helps to reduce pressure of using acaricide 15 Figure 3.3 The impact of branch cutting method on red spider mite on Trung Du variety (La Bang, Dai Tu, Thai Nguyen, 2015) Notice: Treatment 1: Pruning (40cm from the ground) Treatment 2: Pruning (60cm from the ground) 3.4.2.3 Fertilizer application on tea Density of red spider mite on tea in different treatments of using fertilizer were all over prevention threshold (6 individuals/leave) In the tea field where was applied inorganic fertilizers (treatment no.1) density reached a peak at 9.2 – 11.2 individuals/leave in May On the contrary, in the tea field where organic fertilizer “Song Gianh” and inorganic fertilizers were applied (treatment no.2 and treatment no.3), density was lower than in the treatment where only inorganic fertilizers were applied (density reached a peak at 7.3-9.1 individuals/leave in May) In treatment no.2 and treatment no.3, the utilization of organic fertilizer helps tea plant develops well leads to the reduction of red spider mite’s density Density of red spider mite, however, was not significant different among treatments 3.4.3 Natural enemies’ protection
