title: Population dynamics of soil inhabiting mites in cucumber treated with granular insect growth regulators (IGRs).
abstract: In small field trials, certain granular insect growth regulators (IGRs) induced significant reduction in soil inhabiting mites of cucumber plantation at a rate as low as 0.25 kg a.i./acre. However, suborders specificity relationship could easily be detected.
