Description The agricultural sector witnessed an exacerbation of the phytophagous mite problem following the widespread introduction and use of pesticides in recent decades. While pesticides effectively controlled targeted insect pests, they inadvertently decimated the natural enemies of phytophagous mites. Consequently, formerly inconspicuous mite species have emerged as significant pests in present times. The shift from minor to major pest status has been observed in various phytophagous mite species, particularly those that subsist on plant material. This article aims to examine the underlying factors responsible for the evolution of phytophagous mitesfrom minor to major pests, elucidating the contributing elements of this process.
