The Feasibiility of Using Modified Atmospheres to Control Insect Pests in Museums, 1993
The mortality of all life stages of pests commonly found in museums was evaluated at 55% RH and 25.5°C in a nitrogen atmosphere (less than 0.1% oxygen). The insects studied were webbing clothes moths, furniture carpet beetles, firebrats, cabinet beetles, larder beetles, cigarette beetles, confused flour beetles, cockroaches, powderpost beetles and western drywood termites.

متن کاملPotential adoption and management of insect-resistant potato in Peru, and implications for genetically engineered potato.
This paper analyzes some important issues surrounding possible deployment of genetically engineered (GE) insect-resistant potato in Peru, based on a large farmer survey held in Peru in 2003. We found that the formal seed system plays a limited role compared with the informal seed system, especially for smallholder farmers. Although 97% of smallholder farmers would buy seed of an insect-resistan...
متن کاملInsect 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 کاملPotato Wilt and Its Control
A four-year rotation is desirable for potatoes. Proper rotation of crops is one necessary practice for avoiding the holding over of potato diseases in the soil. For potato wilt control at least a four-year rotation should be used. The one shown here makes use of corn, grain, clover, and potatoes. The best basic crop rotation for Western Oregon is grain, clover seed, clover hay, and a cultivated...

The creation in October 1964 of this Division, which includes the Insect Pest Control Subprogramme, marked the beginning of what is certainly a unique and arguably the best example of inter-agency cooperation within the whole UN family. The goal was to join the talents and...
