Towards evolution-proof malaria control with insecticides
As many strategies to control malaria use insecticides against adult mosquitoes, control is undermined by the continual evolution of resistant mosquitoes. Here we suggest that using alternative insecticides, or conventional insecticides in alternative ways might enable effective control, but delay considerably or prevent the evolution of resistance. Our reasoning relies on an epidemiological an...
متن کاملSoil application of neonicotinoid insecticides for control of insect pests in wine grape vineyards.
BACKGROUND Soil application of systemic neonicotinoid insecticides can provide opportunities for long-term control of insect pests in vineyards, with minimal risk of pesticide drift or worker exposure. This study compared the effectiveness of neonicotinoid insecticides applied via irrigation injection on key early-season and mid-season insect pests of vineyards in the eastern United States. R...
متن کاملWhitefly control potential of Eretmocerus parasitoids with different reproductive modes
A major component of the evaluation of biological control agents is the study and comparison of their biology, including the reproductive mode. In hymenopteran parasitoids, reproductive modes include thelytoky and arrhenotoky. Since a thelytokous population produces only females, it is assumed that they may be better suited for biological control than an arrhenotokous population. Here we compar...
متن کاملCompatibility of an organically based insect control program with honey bee (Hymenoptera: Apidae) pollination in cantaloupes.
The application of azadirachtin to foliage of cantaloupes did not significantly reduce successful pollination by commercially managed honey bees, Apis mellifera L., as measured by numbers of foraging honey bees and yield. Similar results were obtained when the synthetic insecticide imidacloprid (used as a standard by cantaloupe growers) was applied to the soil. Fruit yield and quality, as a fun...
متن کاملEffect of four organophosphorus insecticides on microbial activities in soil.
Laboratory tests were conducted with four organophosphorus insecticides, Bay 37289 (O-ethyl O-2,4,5-trichlorophenyl ethylphosphonothioate), diazinon [O,O-diethyl O-(2-isopropyl-4-methyl-6-pyrimidinyl) phosphorothioate], Dursban (O,O-diethyl O-3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridyl phosphorothioate), and Zinophos (O,O-diethyl O-2-pyrazinyl phosphorothioate), applied to a sandy loam at rates of 10 and 100 mug...
