چکیده
In this study, 18-38 nm-sized and spherical-shaped nanopowder Fe3O4 NPs concentrations (0.4, 2, 10, 50, 250 µg/10 µl) was force-fed to sixth instar (180 ± 20 mg) Galleria mellonella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) larvae under laboratory conditions. The effects of magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4) on the pupal adult developmental times, weights longevity G. were recorded. Results showed that treating with μg/10 µl significantly increased weights. Additionally, while time post treatment, it observed time, weights, not statistically different when compared control

Ethephon (ETF), one of the plant growth regulators, is used in agricultural systems as a valuable tool due to its property of regulating fruit maturation. Here, we aimed to investigate the toxic effects of ETF on the hemolymph metabolites of the greater wax moth, G. mellonella which is an experimental animal and a serious pest in wax. Different doses of ETF (250–390 μg/5 μl) were injected with ...

During the summer of 1965, the fungus Spicaria rileyi was frequently associated with dead Pseudoplusia includens larvae on various crops in southeastern Alabama. Since this insect, sometimes referred to as the false looper, has become of increasing economic importance in Alabama (Canerday, J. Econ. Entomol., in press, 1966), the pathogenicity and potential control value of S. rileyi for P. k&de...
