Dynamics of Mononychellus tanajoa (Acari: Tetranychidae) in Africa: Effects on Dry Matter Production and Allocation in Cassava

Seasonally dense populations of Mononychellus tanajoa (Bondar), feeding on the leaves of cassava, Manihot esculenta Crantz, significantly reduced the leaf, stem, and storage-root dry matter of mite-infested plants. Stressed plants met metabolic demands by remobilizing the dry matter in stems and sto...
