Insect Growth Regulators for Insect Pest Control*
Insecticides with growth regulating properties (IGR) may adversely affect insects by regulating or inhibiting specific biochemical pathways or processes essential for insect growth and development. Some insects exposed to such compounds may die due to abnormal regulation of hormone-mediated cell or organ development. Other insects may die either from a prolonged exposure at the developmental st...
متن کاملInsect growth regulators and insect control: a critical appraisal.
Insect growth regulators (IGRs) of the juvenile hormone type alter physiological processes essential to insect development and appear to act specifically on insects. Three natural juvenile hormones have been found in insects but not in other organisms. Future use of antagonists or inhibitors of hormone synthesis may be technically possible as an advantageous extension of pest control by IGRs. A...
متن کاملClassical Biological Control of Codling Moth: the California Experience
Codling moth is a notorious fruit-boring pest that has extended its original distribution from the natural apple forests of Central Asia to cover all apple growing regions of the world. Having been discovered in California as early as 1872, codling moth has continued to be the dominant pest of apple, pear and walnut production causing extensive damage in the absence of insecticide treatment. In...
متن کاملThe future of insect growth regulators in vector control.
Insect growth regulators (IGRs) are diverse groups of chemical compounds that are highly active against larvae of mosquitoes and other insects. The IGRs in general have a good margin of safety to most nontarget biota including invertebrates, fish, birds, and other wildlife. They are also relatively safe to man and domestic animals. The IGR compounds do not induce quick mortality in the preimagi...
متن کاملStudy of Factors Affecting Codling Moth Control by Mating Disruption
This year was the first year of a multiyear project to examine a. number of factors associated with the chemistry of codling moth mating disruption. A substantial portion of time and manpower was involved in building the apparatus required for the project and developing and troubleshooting methods required for the duration of the project. We are about three months behind schedule; we hope to ha...
