Abstract

In 2014, in Macedonia, on the plant goji berry (Lycium chinense Mill.) which is rapidly expanding in the plantation and the surroundings of village Krivogashtani, but only on the seedlings that have been imported, we found symptoms of thickening on the leaves, which haven`t been determined on this new plant and its plantations (of goji berry) until today. Based on the laboratory analysis we found that the cause of these changes was the goji gall mite Aceria kuko Kishida. We have not determined the onset of this new mite, when reviewing other plantations of this plant, in Republic of Macedonia. During 2014 and 2015 we made an effort to protect these plants by treating the plants with the following acaricides and insecticides, insecticide-acaricides: Alverde (metaflumizen), Ethiol prah 5 (malathion), Talstar 10 EC (bifenitrin), Perfecthion (dimetoat), Vertimec 0.18 EC (abamectin). Based on the results we found that the acaricide Vertimec 0.18 EC and insecticide-acaricide Ethiol prah 5 exhibited the highest efficiency index, which amounted 76.3%,and 73.1%. While insecticide Perfecthion showed slightly lower efficiency index which amounted 56.5%. In 2015, doing the experiments we found that the greatest efficiency index showed insecticide Ethiol prah 5 with an index of efficiency of 72.9%, slightly less efficiency 71.6 % has been exhibited acaricide Vertimec 0,18 EC. Insecticide Alverde exhibited the lowest index of efficiency and in experiments in year 2014 it was 50.3% and 2015 it was 46.0%.
