Study of the sustained speed of kill of the combination of fipronil/amitraz/(S)-methoprene and the combination of imidacloprid/permethrin against Dermacentor reticulatus, the European dog tick

Parasite, 2011
The sustained speed of kill against Dermacentor reticulatus of two topical combinations, one containing fipronil/amitraz/(S)-methoprene and the other, imidacloprid/permethrin, was evaluated in dogs.

Biological Activities of trans‐Nerolidol–Rich Chamaecyparis obtusa Essential Oil and Its Application in Lettuce Preservation

Journal of Food Processing and Preservation, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Chinese hinoki essential oil (Chamaecyparis obtusa (Siebold & Zucc.) Endl.; HEO) was characterized by GC‐MS, and its antimicrobial, insecticidal, and potential preservative activities were evaluated. The analyzed essential oil exhibited a trans‐nerolidol–dominant composition, contributing additional data to the currently limited information available ...

Involvement of Met and Kr-h1 in JH-Mediated Reproduction of Female Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel)

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
Juvenile hormone (JH) prevents metamorphosis during insect larval stages and promotes adult reproductive processes. Krüppel-homolog 1 (Kr-h1), a zinc finger transcription factor assumed to be induced by JH via the JH receptor methoprene-tolerant (Met ...

Stress in dipteran insects mass‐reared for sterile insect technique applications

Insect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1495-1523, October 2025.
The connections between biotic and abiotic stress affecting mass‐reared dipteran insects and the associated stress and immunological responses. Numbers indicate the order in which the topics are discussed in this review. Abstract Stress may be viewed as the disturbance of homeostasis of an organism.

The impact of sterile insect technique processes on the performance of tephritid flies

Insect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1524-1556, October 2025.
This graphical abstract illustrates the impact of different SIT (Sterile Insect Technique) processes on the biological performance of sterile fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae). The SIT process involves sequential procedures or stages (colonization, mass‐rearing, irradiation, handling, packaging, chilling, and release), where each stage can induce ...

Regulation of the development of flight muscles in long-winged adults of the flightless bug Pyrrhocoris apterus (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae)

European Journal of Entomology, 2008
We studied the development of the indirect flight muscles and reproductive organs in long-winged (macropterous) adults of the flightless bug Pyrrhocoris apterus (L.) and the factors involved in flight muscles histolysis by means of total protein analysis.
