Similarly, acetamiprid, buprofezin, cyantraniliprole were Acerophagus flavidulu...

Recently, neonicotinoids have become the fastest-growing class of insecticides in conventional crop protection, with extensive usage against a wide range sucking and chewing pests. Neonicotinoids are widely used due to their high toxicity invertebrates, simplicity, flexibility which they may be applied, lengthy persistence, systemic nature ensures that spread all sections target crop. However, ...
