Spent Coffee Grounds and Novaluron Are Toxic to Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) Larvae
Insects, 2023 Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) is a vector for mosquito-borne diseases worldwide. Insecticide resistance is a major concern in controlling this mosquito. We investigated the chemical compounds in wet and dry spent coffee grounds (wSCGs and dSCGs) and

Resistance of Musca domestica L. populations to cyromazine (insect growth regulator) in Brazil
Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2001 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

Effect of Plant Growth Regulator Paclobutrazol and Fertilization on Paper Birch and Austrian Pine Resistance to Folivores [PDF]
, 2006 Plant defense theory predicts that environmental factors that limit growth of plants more than their rate of photosynthesis should increase secondary metabolism and insect resistance.

Oxime Ethers: New Potent Insect Growth Regulators
Agricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1985 Oxime ethers containing a 4-phenoxyphenoxy group in the molecules were synthesized and their insect growth regulating (IGR) activities were studied. Of these new IGR’s, propionaldehyde oxime O-2-(4-phenoxyphenoxy)ethyl ether and propionaldehyde oxime O-2-(4-phenoxy-phenoxy)propyl ether were found to be most effective, having much higher activities than

A new binding mode for ecdysteroid analog tebufenozide as a multitargeted IGR with chitinase
Advanced AgrochemTebufenozide, an efficient insect growth regulator (IGR) against lepidopteran pests, presents a novel mode of action with minimal non-target impact. By competing with ecdysteroids for ecdysone receptor (EcR) binding, it regulates insect growth precisely.
