Diet acts on sexual behavior development in a male moth
Insect Science, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 1439-1452, August 2025.Drastic changes are observed during sexual maturation characterized by the reproductive system development concomitantly to the sexual behavior ontogenesis. These modifications are under the control of internal and external factors such as food. Knowing that sexual maturation requires considerable energetic investment, diet has been shown to affect ...

Fate of methoprene in temperate salt marsh ditches following aerial applications
, 2018 Aerial applications of liquid methoprene are used in salt marshes to control mosquitoes by preventing adult emergence. Despite concern about toxicity to non-target organisms, little is known about environmental concentrations after applications, nor ...

Development of an Analytical Method for Methoprene in Rice by HPLC
Food Hygiene and Safety Science (Shokuhin Eiseigaku Zasshi), 1994 A new analytical method was developed for the determination of methoprene, an insecticide, in rice. Methoprene was extracted with n-hexane from powdered samples. The concentrated n-hexane extract was purified by distillation in a Dean-Stark apparatus for 1.5hr, and then cleaned-up with a Sep-pak Florisil cartridge. The eluate was used as test solution.

The quest for the best target genes for RNAi‐mediated pest control
Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 34, Issue 4, Page 505-517, August 2025.A major challenge for RNAi mediated pest control is the identification of the most effective RNAi target genes from the pool of ~37% of all genes that are essential. Effective RNAi target genes are predominantly highly conserved genes serving basic cellular functions such as protein degradation.
