Validation of a novel bioassay method for the evaluation of the activity of slow‐acting insecticides on tomato borer Phthorimaea absoluta

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Extended bioassays revealed that azadirachtin and spirotetramat show strong delayed effects against Phthorimaea absoluta, underestimated by the standard Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC) method 022 protocol. Incorporating long‐term exposures is essential to accurately assess slow‐acting insecticides and improve resistance management ...

Optimal irradiation parameters for the development of the sterile insect technique in the seedcorn maggot Delia platura (Diptera: Anthomyiidae)

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
X‐ray irradiation of Delia platura pupae showed that 20 Gy induces high sterility while maintaining male quality and competitiveness, establishing optimal parameters for sterile insect technique implementation in North America. Abstract BACKGROUND The seedcorn maggot, Delia platura Meigen (Diptera: Anthomyiidae), is a sporadic but economically ...

Foraging Behavior of the Blue Morpho and Other Tropical Butterflies: The Chemical and Electrophysiological Basis of Olfactory Preferences and the Role of Color

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2012
Inside a live butterfly exhibit, we conducted bioassays to determine whether the presence of color would facilitate the location of attractants by the butterflies.

Chlorantraniliprole: bioactivation in coffee seedlings and control of resistant Leucoptera coffeella populations

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Chlorantraniliprole enhanced growth and biomass in coffee seedlings infested by susceptible Leucoptera coffeella, while resistant populations limited its insecticidal performance. These findings emphasize both the bioactivator potential of chlorantraniliprole and the challenges of managing resistance in coffee leaf miner control.

Characterization of Cry2Ab2 resistance in Crocidosema sp. (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae): resistance selection, inheritance, cross‐resistance patterns, and fitness costs

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This article reports the first characterization of Cry2Ab2 resistance in Crocidosema sp. Resistance appears to be autosomal and incompletely recessive, with a major‐gene contribution and potential involvement of additional genetic factors, and did not confer cross‐resistance to Cry1Ac or Cry1A.105. Abstract BACKGROUND The soybean bud borer, Crocidosema
