A method is described for simultaneous recording of in-vivo nerve activity and toxicological symptoms from 6th-instar larvae of Spodoptera littoralis poisoned with insecticide. Topically applied doses (9 ng-180 μg insect?1) of cypermethrin induced hyperactivity, repetitive activity and bursting in the ventral nerve cord; these activities were associated with different stages of poisoning in the whole animal and are consistent with pharmacokinetic studies. Nerve activity continued long after the larvae appeared to be dead (i.e. up to 5-6 days), although microscopic examination of these larvae revealed that they were still capable of small movements. At the lower doses (up to the LD95) time to death was inversely proportional to dose. Death of the organism may be related to the number of neurones which are affected by the insecticide.  相似文献

The joint action of insecticides, or of mixtures of insect growth regulators and insecticides, on the susceptible (S) strain and diflubenzuron-resistant (Rd) strain of the cotton leafworm Spodoptera littoralis Boisd. was investigated. The joint action of the insecticides and/or insect growth regulator mixtures was determined by mixing them in proportion to their activity equivalents at the LD25 or ED25 levels. A total of 15 mixtures of two synthetic pyrethroids, two organophosphorus, one carbamate and one organochlorine insecticides, were applied to the fourth-instar larvae of the S and Rd strains. The insecticide mixtures cypermethrin/methomyl and cypermethrin/endrin exhibited high and moderate levels of synergism on the S strain, respectively. However the mixtures chlorpyrifos/methomyl, phosfolan/methomyl, and phosfolan/endrin produced antagonism, while the other mixtures showed varying levels of additive effects. The response of the fourth-instar larvae of the S strain, to the joint action of diflubenzuron/juvenoid, diflubenzuron/insecticide, or insecticide/juvenoid mixtures, revealed that diflubenzuron produced high levels of synergism when combined with methoprene and progressively less with fenvalerate, methomyl and cypermethrin. On the other hand, the mixture diflubenzuron/triprene was antagonistic. Fenvalerate with the two juvenoids produced synergism while methomyl showed an additive effect with methoprene. However, the mixtures cypermethrin/methoprene, cypermethrin/triprene and methomyl/triprene produced antagonism. The mixtures that produced potentiation on the fourth-instar larvae of the S strain lost their high potency when tested against the Rd strain. The results also indicated that insecticide/juvenoid mixtures, when applied on 2-day-old pupae of the S strain, were synergistic, except in the case of cypermethrin/methoprene and methomyl/triprene mixtures, for which additive effects were observed. When the mixtures that had synergistic effects on the S strain were tested on the Rd strain, the results revealed that their synergistic effects were apparently reduced. This was attributed to the fact that the generalised levels of tolerance in the Rd strain towards various compounds may have influenced the several defence mechanisms to act against the synergistic action of the chemical mixtures.  相似文献

Brassica cultivars with varying degrees of partial plant resistance were fed to larvae (up to 4th instar) of the diamondback moth (DBM), Plutella xylostella, and were bioassayed by topical application of cypermethrin to investigate the interaction of plant resistance with insecticide. Larvae reared on the least preferred brassica, Minicole, showed a significantly higher LD50 value than those on the most preferred brassica, Chinese cabbage. Bioassay of 4th instar DBM larvae fed on artificial diet containing pure compounds of glucosinolates revealed a negative interaction between their susceptibility to cypermethin and certain glucosinolates (in particular sinigrin), suggesting that such compounds induced the production of insecticide-detoxifying enzymes.  相似文献

A permethrin-induced antifeedant effect was demonstrated in Drosophila melanogaster topically treated with a dose of 1.25 ng per fly (LD50 and LD10 were 18.5 and 7.4 ng of permethrin per fly, respectively). The reduction in food consumption in treated flies was due to a decrease in the frequency of feeding and not to the duration of individual meals. These results suggested that the sublethal effect occurred before the process of ingestion. Furthermore, a time-sampling study of individual flies, 30 min after treatment, revealed that the relative frequency of the components of general behaviour were altered. Specifically, locomotory behaviour and inactivity were significantly decreased in contrast to preening, which increased. Continuous observation for 30 min revealed that whilst the length of preening bouts was unaltered, their frequency of occurrence was significantly increased in permethrin-treated flies. The length of bouts of locomotory activity was significantly reduced in treated individuals, but the frequency was increased. The length of rest periods was reduced in treated flies, but no influence of the insecticide could be detected on their bout frequency. Sequential analysis of the transition frequencies of the behavioural components suggested that an underlying disorganisation of general behaviour resulted from the insecticide treatment. Further analysis, of the behaviour of those flies that had fed, indicated that the probability of tasting leading to feeding was decreased by permethrin. The increase in preening behaviour was thought to cause the reduction in locomotor activity, that ultimately resulted in the reduction in feeding. This is discussed in relation to the physiological basis of pyrethroid action and a subsequent irritation response to low doses.  相似文献

The ovicidal action of four insecticides and three insect growth regulators, on eggs of various ages of the susceptible (S) strain of Spodoptera littoralis, was investigated. The results revealed that diflubenzuron was the most toxic compound tested on 0-1-day-old eggs, followed by triprene and then methoprene; chlorpyrifos came next in its toxicity, followed by cypermethrin then fenvalerate; methomyl was the least effective. With the progress of embryonic development, 1-2-day-old eggs showed slight tolerance to the action of the pesticides and juvenoids, but apparently resisted the action of diflubenzuron. Eggs 2-3 days old showed increased tolerance to the insecticides and diflubenzuron and, to a lesser extent, to the action of the two juvenoids. A total of 21 insecticide or insect growth regulator-insecticide mixtures, based on their toxicity equivalents (LD25 + LD25), were applied jointly on 0-1-day-old eggs of the S strain. The mixtures which produced high synergism on this stage could be arranged, according to their decreasing order of potentiation, as follows: fenvalerate/diflubenzuron, cypermethrin/triprene, methomyl/methoprene, cypermethrin/methoprene, fenvalerate/ methoprene, cypermethrin/methomyl, cypermethrin/diflubenzuron, fenvalerate/triprene, diflubenzuron/methoprene and methomyl/triprene. The mixtures that produced synergistic effects on 0-1-day-old eggs were also tested against the 1-2 and 2-3-day-oldeggs of the S strain. Theresults indicated that themixtures fenvalerate/diflubenzuron, and cypermethrin with either triprene or diflubenzuron, when tested on 1-2-day-old eggs, produced levels of synergism nearly similar to those achieved on newly deposited eggs. On the other hand, the mixtures cypermethrin/methomyl, and fenvalerate with methoprene or triprene, showed comparatively lower levels of synergism. However, the synergistic action of the mixture cypermethrin/methoprene, previously detected on newly deposited eggs, became an additive effect on 1-2-day-old eggs. Only the mixtures fenvalerate/diflubenzuron, cypermethrin/triprene and fenvalerate/methoprene showed synergism on 2-3-day-old eggs. The mixtures which showed synergistic effects on 0-1-day-old eggs of the S strain were further tested on eggs of various ages of the diflubenzuron-resistant (Rd) strain. As regards 0-1-day-old eggs, only the combinations cypermethrin/triprene, methomyl/methoprene and fenvalerate/methoprene produced additive effects. The mixture cypermethrin/diflubenzuron was still synergistic against newly deposited eggs of the Rd strain, in a manner similar to that indicated with the S strain. Apparent levels of antagonism were shown to the other insecticide-juvenoid mixtures as well as to the diflubenzuron/methoprene combination. The combinations cypermethrin/methomyl and fenvalerate/diflubenzuron had some effect on the freshly deposited eggs of the Rd strain but produced lower levels of potentiation. With the increase in age of the eggs, the mixture cypermethrin/diflubenzuron showed a lower level of synergism on the 1-2 day-old eggs than was observed in younger eggs. The additive effects, previously detected with some of the mixtures on newly deposited eggs became an antagonistic effect for the 1-2-day-old eggs. The eggs at this stage were more able to resist thejoint action of the other mixtures tested. Moreover, with further increase in the age of the eggs, the combination cypermethrin/diflubenzuron produced a lower level of potentiation on 2-3 day-old eggs, followed by fenvalerate/diflubenzuron at an even lower level, while the other mixtures showed various levels of antagonism.  相似文献

There was no difference in dose response to abamectin between a laboratory strain of Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say))from North Carolina and a multiple resistant strain from Massachusetts (LD50= 1.95 and 1.98 ng larva?1, respectively). Two abamectin-resistant strains were generated by separate means. The mutagen, ethyl methanesulfonate, was used to generate an abamectin-resistant strain (LD50= 29.4 ng larva?1) from the susceptible laboratory strain. The other resistant strain (LD50 = 45.3 ng larva?1) was generated through an intense selection with abamectin of a field strain contained in cages set up in existing potato fields. Resistance ratios calculated from LD50values for the two abamectin-resistant strains were 15-fold and 23-fold, respectively. Resistance ratios calculated from LD97values (21-fold and 38-fold, respectively) were higher than those calculated at LD50. Also, there were larvae in both resistant strains which were capable of surviving doses up to 100 ng larva?1, while the susceptible strain had no survivors at 10 ng larva?1. Although the logit mortality regression analysis produced statistically different lines for the two abamectin-resistant strains, the slopes of each appear to be the same. Both resistance factors were determined to be autosomal and incompletely recessive (0.26 to 0.4, respectively) via reciprocal F1crosses to the susceptible laboratory strain.  相似文献

Abstract

Laboratory studies were carried out to determine the course of poisoning and toxicity of some synthetic pyrethroid insecticides (bioresmethrin, cismethrin, cypermethrin, deltamethrin, fenpropathrin, fenvalerate and permethrin) against the desert locust. From doses in excess of the LD99 all the insecticides were quick acting; from doses of about the LD99 or less the insects are rapidly knocked down or show symptoms of poisoning, but may recover. The symptoms which follow treatment by the various insecticides are described. Although these insecticides are all highly toxic to locusts there are many other insecticides which are similarly toxic, can be sprayed at high concentrations and are much cheaper.  相似文献

The speed of toxic action of an insecticide is an indicator for control efficacy and has considerable practical importance. For agricultural pest control, fast-acting is an important feature for an insecticide to consistently reduce the amount of feeding damage. Butene-fipronil is a novel compound obtained via the structural modification of fipronil. However, information about the toxicity and speed of toxic action is still limited. In the present paper, we compared the toxic feature of butene-fipronil with seven other insecticides, of which imidacloprid and abamectin are slow-acting insecticides, and acephate, endosulfan, methomyl, α-cypermethrin and spinosad are fast-acting insecticides. We found that the contact and stomach toxicities of butene-fipronil were among the highest ever estimated to Leptinotarsa decemlineata and Drosophila melanogaster. The speed of toxic action of butene-fipronil was determined using median lethal time (LT50) at a dose (concentration) equivalent to LD80 values. For L. decemlineata, the values for butene-fipronil, imidacloprid, abamectin, acephate, endosulfan, methomyl, cypermethrin and spinosad were calculated to be 39.9, 36.5, 37.5, 20.2, 22.4, 23.8, 16.4 and 23.1 h, respectively. Those for D. melanogaster were 29.8, 31.5, 29.4, 14.0, 20.3, 18.1, 13.5, and 20.1 h, respectively. ANOVA analysis showed that butene-fipronil, imidacloprid, abamectin had similar LT50 values, whereas acephate, endosulfan, methomyl, spinosad and cypermethrin had comparable LT50 values. Thus, butene-fipronil belongs to slow-acting insecticides. Our results provide more empirical information for butene-fipronil potential application.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Feeding assays using adult rice water weevils and foliage of plants treated as seeds with chlorantraniliprole and thiamethoxam at different rates were conducted to evaluate the systemic adulticidal and feeding effects. Dose–mortality relationships were determined for thiamethoxam seed treatments by combining leaf area lost due to feeding and insecticide residues analyzed by LC/MS/MS. Changes in adulticidal activity of thiamethoxam were also investigated by contrasting adult mortalities at the 5–6‐leaf and tillering stages of rice. RESULTS: Adult weevil mortalities and leaf consumption rates on foliage were affected in thiamethoxam but not in chlorantraniliprole treatments when rice was at the 6–7‐leaf stage. The LD50 for weevils feeding on thiamethoxam‐treated rice at the 2–3‐leaf stage was 447 pg insecticide weevil?1 (95% CL: 25–830 pg weevil?1) but was lower (142 pg weevil?1; 95% CL: 102–180 pg weevil?1) in experiments with 3–4‐leaf‐stage plants. Mortalities on leaves from 5–6‐leaf‐stage plants were consistently higher than on leaves from tillering plants. Thiamethoxam residues measured by ELISA increased with seed treatment rate and differed between plant stages. CONCLUSION: The LD50 values developed in this study are the first values for leaf‐feeding insects on foliage of plants treated as seeds with thiamethoxam. The attrition of adulticidal activity of thiamethoxam in foliage of older plants may help to explain the reduced effectiveness of seed treatments against rice water larvae that is seen at later stages of rice growth in field studies. The differential activity of these two seed treatments on adults suggests that adult mortality contributes to the field efficacy of thiamethoxam but not to that of chlorantraniliprole.

BACKGROUND: In 2003 the development of insecticide resistance against neonicotinoids in the brown planthopper (BPH), Nilaparvata lugens (Stål) (Homoptera: Delphacidae), was first observed in Thailand and has since been found in other Asian countries such as Vietnam, China and Japan. However, the LD50 values of BPH and the whitebacked planthopper (WBPH), Sogatella furcifera (Horváth), against both neonicotinoid and phenylpyrazole insecticides have been poorly reported in many Asian countries. RESULTS: The topical LD50 values for imidacloprid in the BPH populations collected from East Asia (Japan, China, Taiwan) and Vietnam in 2006 were 4.3–24.2 µg g?1 and were significantly higher than those collected from the Philippines (0.18–0.35 µg g?1). The BPH populations indicated a positive cross‐resistance between imidacloprid and thiamethoxam. Almost all the WBPH populations from Japan, Taiwan, China, Vietnam and the Philippines had extremely large LD50 values (19.7–239 µg g?1 or more) for fipronil, except for several populations from the Philippines and China. CONCLUSION: Species‐specific changes in insecticide susceptibility were found in Asian rice planthoppers (i.e. BPH for imidacloprid and WBPH for fipronil). Insecticide resistance in BPH against imidacloprid occurred in East Asia and Indochina, but not in the Philippines. In contrast, insecticide resistance in WBPH against fipronil occurred widely in East and South‐east Asia. Copyright © 2008 Society of Chemical Industry  相似文献

4种抗虫性植物水提物对棉蚜取食行为的影响   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
通过拒食活性的生物学观察和刺吸电位技术(EPG)研究了夹竹桃、香樟、银杏和番茄等4种植物的鲜叶水溶性提取物对棉蚜取食行为的影响.结果表明:4种植物的水溶性粗提液和氯氰菊酯具有明显的拒食效应,而且拒食效果随着浓度的提高和作用时间的延长而提高,但当作用时间从2 h增加到4h时,香樟、番茄水溶性粗提液对棉蚜的拒食效果却明显下降.因此,香樟和番茄水溶性粗提液中起拒食驱避作用的成分很可能具挥发性.EPG分析显示:4种粗提液和氯氰菊酯使棉蚜有效取食(E1、E2和G波)的持续时间极显著地缩短,E1、E2波持续时间分别缩短至对照的29%以下和23%以下,G波持续时间缩短至对照的56%以下;寻找取食部位(C波)的持续时间显著延长,而此过程中棉蚜口针短暂穿刺植物细胞膜(pd波)的频率明显减少;除香樟外,还极显著地延长棉蚜的非取食行为(np波)的持续时间(2倍以上).因此,与氯氰菊酯一样,夹竹桃、香樟、银杏和番茄等4种植物的鲜叶水溶性提取物显著影响棉蚜取食行为.  相似文献

Inoculation     
Terpenes and biogenically related phenols commonly found in plant essential oils are known to be toxic to insect pests. Accordingly thymol was tested for acute toxicity via topical application to diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella L. (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) and its parasitoid, Cotesia plutellae (Kurdjunov) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae under laboratory conditions. Topical application to adult female parasitoids versus second instars of P. xylostella showed that thymol was about 62 times less toxic to the parasitoid than to the host larvae with 24 h LD50 of 0.052 and 0.0008M, respectively. Although thymol was less toxic to the parasitoid, some biological parameters of the progeny at sublethal doses of surviving parasitoids were impaired such as rate of emergence and development time of larvae and pupae. The impact on detoxification enzymes was also studied and there was no significant induction in cytochrome P450 and carboxylesterase activities in both treated male and female wasps. Results obtained suggest that parasitoid is able to withstand the impact of thymol significantly.  相似文献

A bioassay method has been developed for the screening of pyrethroids for contact toxicity against Limnoria species which should prove suitable for insecticides with low water-solubility. Less than 1% of a topically applied dose of cypermethrin (4.8 ng per isopod) was lost to the sea-water from the body surface; the pharmacokinetics of cypermethrin in the isopod accounted for the fate of the remainder. LD50 parameter estimates obtained by this method represent measurements of absolute toxicity; NRDC 161b proved the most effective of three pyrethroids tested.  相似文献

This paper reports on some laboratory methods for evaluating the toxicity of rodenticides to the common vole. Test conditions including the experimental animals used, their housing, feeding and handling (measuring body weight, marking of the individuals, route of administering the toxicant), test materials and observations are presented. New toxicants were screened simultaneously on white rats and on voles. For each compound, the following data were determined: a) the acute (single dose) approximate LD50 (= ALD50), b) the acute (single dose) LD50, as well as the multiple dose toxicity for anticoagulants, c) the approximate 5-day LD50 and d) the 5-day LD50. For the determination of a) and c), about 6 animals were used. The LD50 values were determined by giving 6–8 doses to each of 10 rats and 4 doses to each of 4–6 voles. A brief report is given on the determination of the joint toxic action of the 2 chemicals. Rodenticidal formulations were tested on voles in various no-choice and choice feeding tests. No-choice tests with compounds having an acute toxicity were carried out for 24 h, those with anticoagulants for 5 × 24 h and those with narcotics for 2 × 24 h. The corresponding periods for choice tests were 2 × 24 h, 5 × 24 h and 4 × 24 h, respectively. Preference and repellency tests were also carried out. The stability of a rodenticide in baits exposed to weather, as well as the effectiveness of fumigants on solid carriers were investigated under simulated environmental conditions.  相似文献

The chitin precursor [14C] N-acetylglucosamine injected into the haemolymph of Spodoptera littoralis (Boisduval) larva was incorporated into the chitin exponentially with time. When caterpillars were injected with precursor at the commencement of feeding on acylurea-treated leaf discs, flufenoxuron, teflubenzuron and diflubenzuron were found to be equally effective inhibitors of chitin synthesis, measured after 21 h. The dose response curves by feeding are not parallel, indicating that the relative potency of the compounds will vary across the dose range. When chitin precursor was injected simultaneously with topically applied diflubenzuron, flufenoxuron or teflubenzuron, all three acylureas were found to be equally effective as inhibitors of chitin synthesis when measured after five hours. The I50values (50% inhibition of chitin synthesis) were not significantly different; average 600 ng, compared with LD50values (50% lethal dose) of13 ng for flufenoxuron and teflubenzuron but 130 ng for diflubenzuron (topical application). Injection of precursor 24 h after topical application of insecticide gave an I50value which had dropped 670- and 150-fold for flufenoxuron and teflubenzuron respectively but only 20-fold for diflubenzuron. It is postulated that the reason for the low increase in diflubenzuron effectiveness with time was due either to less diflubenzuron than flufenoxuron reaching the site of action, or more probably, a faster rate of metabolism and excretion for diflubenzuron. The lower toxicity of diflubenzuron compared with flufenoxuron and teflubenzuron may not be due to any inherent differences in biochemical effectiveness, but rather to different penetration/metabolism properties.  相似文献

Samples of 24 house fly (Musca domestica L.) populations were collected from animal farms in Hungary in 1990 and kept in the laboratory to determine their susceptibility to different types of insecticide: organochlorines, organophosphates, carbamates, pyrethroids, macrocyclic lactone and insect growth regulators. The adulticides were tested with topical bioassay in all 24 populations, the larvicides were studied with treated larval medium in 16 populations. The data were expressed as LD50 and LC50 values (ng fly ?1 and mg kg ?1 larval medium respectively). The percentages of populations which had resistance ratios > 10 at LD50 or LC50 were: 63% to DDT, 50% to methoxychlor, 13% to lindane, 83% to malathion, 63% to trichlorfon, 4% to propetamphos, 96% to dioxacarb, 46% to propoxur, 4% to methomyl, 13% to pyrethrum, 96% to bioresmethrin, 63% to permethrin, 58% to cypermethrin, 79% to SK-80, 79% to deltamethrin, 38% to invermectin, 0% to diflubenzuron, 0% to cyromazine. Correlation analysis showed a high degree of positive correlation among the adulticides except for ivermectin, bioresmethrin and SK-80. No cross-resistance was found between the larvicides and the conventional adulticides. Differences of insecticide resistance levels among the populations surveyed were studied by principal component and factor analysis. A fairly good relationship between resistance status and control practices used on farms was revealed. The populations originating from those farms where the application of adulticides had been frequent or regular and where high resistance was shown to most chemicals could be separated from the others.  相似文献

The degradation of the pyrethroid insecticide cypermethrin and the geometric isomers NRDC 160 (cis-) and NRDC 159 (trans-) in three soils has been studied under laboratory conditions. Samples of the insecticides labelled separately with 14C in the cyclopropyl and benzyl rings were used. The rate of degradation was most rapid on sandy clay and sandy loam soils, 50% of the NRDC 160 and NRDC 159 applied to both soils being decomposed in 4 weeks and 2 weeks respectively. The major degradative route in all soils was hydrolysis of the ester linkage leading to the formation of 3-phenoxybenzoic acid and 3-(2,2-dichlorovinyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid; soil treated with the cis-isomer (NRDC 160) was found to contain both cis- and trans-isomer forms of the cyclopropanecarboxylic acid. Further degradation of these carboxylic acids was evident since 14CO2 was released from cyclopropyl- and benzyllabelled cypermethrin in amounts equivalent to 24 and 38% of the applied radioactivity over a 22 week period. A minor degradative route was ring-hydroxylation of the insecticide to give an α-cyano-3-(4-hydroxyphenoxy)benzyl ester followed by hydrolysis of the ester bond. Under waterlogged conditions the rate of hydrolysis of cypermethrin on sandy loam soil was slower than under aerobic conditions and 3-phenoxybenzoic acid accumulated in the anaerobic soil.  相似文献
