Resistance Status of Musca domestica L. Populations to Neonicotinoids and Insect Growth Regulators in Pakistan Poultry Facilities

چکیده
House flies, Musca domestica L. (Diptera: Muscidae) are mechanical vectors of many diseases on poultry facilities and have the ability to develop resistance to different insecticides. The aim of the present study was to assess the resistance status of house flies to neonicotinoids and insect growth regulators (IGR) from poultry facility populations in Punjab, Pakistan. M. domestica populations from five poultry facilities were studied for their resistance status to selected neonicotinoids and IGRs. For three neonicotinoids, the range of resistance ratio was 4.9-16-fold for acetamiprid, 2-14-fold for imidacloprid and 9.7-35-fold for nitenpyram when compared with the susceptible population. For four IGRs, the range of resistance ratio was 0.3-6.6-fold for pyriproxyfen, 0.8-18-fold for cyromazine, 1-22-fold for lufenuron and 1-14-fold for methoxyfenozide. Positive significant correlations were found among the toxicities of acetamiprid, nitenpyram and cyromazine. Regular insecticide resistance monitoring and integrated management plans on poultry facilities are required to prevent resistance development, field control failures and environmental pollution.

Five field populations of Musca domestica L. collected in poultry farms were bioassayed in order to detect possible resistance to the larvicide cyromazine in Brazil. The concentrations used were 0, 0.5, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 1, 2, 4 and 8 ppm. Three populations (Petrópolis, RJ, Montes Claros, MG and Promissão, SP) were resistant, while the other two populations (Ibiuna, SP and Monte Mor, SP) were more...

The house fly, Musca domestica L., is a very important insect because of its role as a vector of several human, livestock, and poultry diseases. Different groups of insecticides, including the pyrethroids, are used to control house flies. The objective of the current study was to conduct a survey of the kdr insecticide resistance gene in the house fly population in the United Arab Emirates (UAE...

F i l t h fly control on poultry facilities in California is not limited to the house fly but also includes the little house fly. In fact, the little house fly, Fannia canicularis (L.), is of greater economic importance to poultry producers than the house fly, Musca domestica L., mainly because it occurs during the cool and wet season, when standard manure-drying practices are not always reliab...

The histerid beetle Carcinops pumilio (Erichson) is an important natural predator of the house fly, Musca domestica L., in accumulated poultry house manure. We examined the spatio-temporal dynamics of establishing adult C. pumilio in high-rise poultry facilities using conventional and geostatistical approaches. The growth curves of resident and immigrating populations followed logistic and expo...
