Harpalus (Pseudoophonus) rufipes as a model to study cellular and humoral immune defence strategies in coleopteran species

Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2019
Carabids are of special interest as environmental quality assessment indicators of exposure to xenobiotic and for pest control. In agroecosystems, they can be exposed to a wide range of pathogens and environmental pollution exerting a stronger selection ...

Combined effects of some insecticides and different isolates of Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae on mortality and immune responses of Chilo suppressalis Walker (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)

Invertebrate Survival Journal
The combined use of microbial agents and chemical insecticides is an effective strategy against insect pests in agroecosystems. This study evaluates the effects of four insecticides-permethrin, fenitrothion, trichlorfon, and tebufenozide-together with ...
