Cotton whitefly (Bemisia tabaci ) resistance to organophosphate and pyrethroid insecticides in Pakistan

open access: yes, 2002
Resistance to three organophosphate and four pyrethroid insecticides was monitored from 1992 to 2000 in field populations of adult whiteflies, Bemisia tabaci, from Pakistan using a leaf-dip method. There was generally a very high resistance to dimethoate

The infectivity of the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana to insecticide-resistant and susceptible Anopheles arabiensis mosquitoes at two different temperatures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
BACKGROUND: Control of the major African malaria vector species continues to rely extensively on the application of residual insecticides through indoor house spraying or bed net impregnation.

Synergistic Advanced Oxidation and Physicochemical Treatment Strategies for Antibiotic Removal and Resistance Mitigation in Water

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The presence of antibiotics in water not only causes environmental pollution but also increases the growth of antibiotic‐resistant bacterial genes, which pose serious threats to human beings and other water residents. Large numbers of people are reportedly affected by the resistant bacterial genes, as many broad‐spectrum antibiotics are not ...

Mexican Rice Borer Control Tactics in United States Sugarcane

open access: yesInsects, 2019
The invasive Mexican rice borer, Eoreuma loftini (Dyar), expanded its range from Mexico to South Texas in the early 1980s. By 2008 the pest had moved into sugarcane- and rice-growing areas of East Texas and Louisiana, and by 2012 it was reported on ...

Impact of systemic insecticides on organisms and ecosystems

open access: yes, 2013
This review has brought some light on the direct, sublethal and indirect effects that systemic insecticides have on species populations and ecosystems. Some long-term impacts have been known for some time (e.g.

Pyrethroid activity-based probes for profiling cytochrome P450 activities associated with insecticide interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Pyrethroid insecticides are used to control diseases spread by arthropods. We have developed a suite of pyrethroid mimetic activity-based probes (PyABPs) to selectively label and identify P450s associated with pyrethroid metabolism.

Bio‐Based Sodium Alginate Beads Reinforced With Microalgae (Limnospira platensis): Structure–Property Relationships and Controlled Release Potential

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Development of sodium alginate beads doped with Limnospira platensis, designed for the gradual release of nutrients and bioactive molecules into soil. The biomaterial combines biodegradability, controlled‐release potential, and microalgal biomass valorization, contributing to reduced nutrient losses through leaching and the development of more ...

Environmental effects of insecticides on non target predator and parasitoid insects

open access: yes, 2009
When considering how insecticides impact beneficial insects, in addition to direct mortality, we need to assess sublethal effects on population numbers which reduce the efficacy of the predators and parasitoids in reducing pest insects.
