A testing cascade to identify repurposed insecticides for next-generation vector control tools: screening a panel of chemistries with novel modes of action against a malaria vector [version 2; peer review: 3 approved] [PDF]

Gates Open Research, 2019
Background: With insecticide resistance in malaria vectors spreading in geographical range and intensity, there is a need for compounds with novel modes of action to maintain the successes achieved to date by long-lasting insecticidal nets and indoor ...

Seed Coating with Triflumezopyrim Induces the Rice Plant’s Defense and Inhibits the Brown Planthopper’s Feeding Behavior

Agronomy, 2022
Triflumezopyrim (TFM), a novel mesoionic insecticide, has been effective in controlling sucking insect pests such as the brown planthopper (BPH). However, the mechanism of TFM as a seed coating agent in paddy fields remains unclear.

High-throughput sequencing of 16S rRNA gene analysis reveal insights into abundance, diversity, and function of the gut microbiota in zebrafish exposed to triflumezopyrim

Aquaculture Reports
Triflumezopyrim, a newly commercialized insecticide that belongs to a novel class of mesoionic insecticides, is widely used in rice fields for controlling brown planthoppers. Insecticides infiltrate from crop fields to aquatic ecosystems through leaching

Reproductive Outbreaks of Sogatella furcifera Mediated by Overexpression of the Nuclear Receptor USP under Pressure from Triflumezopyrim. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci, 2022
Long-term pesticide-driven selection pressure is one of the main causes of insect outbreaks. In this study, we found that low doses of triflumezopyrim could increase the fecundity of white-backed planthoppers (Sogatella furcifera). By continuously screening 20 generations with a low dose of triflumezopyrim, a triflumezopyrim-resistant strain (Tri ...

Expression of subunits of an insecticide target receptor varies across tissues, life stages, castes, and species of social bees. [PDF]

Mol Ecol, 2023
Abstract Global losses of insects jeopardize ecosystem stability and crop pollination. Robust evidence indicates that insecticides have contributed to these losses. Notably, insecticides targeting nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) have neurotoxic effects on beneficial insects.
