Comments
Members of A. tulipae feed on young leaves and are found in layers of tulips, onions and garlic bulbs. As a result of their feeding on knitting, twisting, curling green parts and leaves of the plants, they damage and dry the leaf texture ( Debnath and Karmakar 2013). This species carries the wheat streak mosaic virus (WSMV) and garlic mosaic virus especially in garlic and onions which cause significant yield losses in the economic sense ( Denizhan 2012). Denizhan (2012) reported this mite feeding on the leaves of garlic. This species was found in nine garlic storages of Taşköprü and Hanönü in this study.
