Methacrifos (22.5 g t?1) and the three protectant combinations chlorpyrifos-methyl (10 g t?1) plus bioresmethrin (1 g t?1), fenitrothion (12 g t?1) plus (1R)-phenothrin (2 g t?1) and pirimiphos-methyl (4 g t?1) plus carbaryl (8 g t?1) were each applied to grain that was stored in at least 15 silos. Grain temperature and levels of protectant were regularly monitored, and samples from 12 storages using each treatment were taken for laboratory assays against Rhyzopertha dominica and Tribolium castaneum. Grain condition did not deteriorate during storage. Grain remained free of insects in 60 of the 63 storages treated; partial failure in the other 3 storages was attributed to low or irregular levels of protectant. The mean and range of residue values of all protectants were recorded as a function of time and the mean observed values corresponded to predicted values. In laboratory bioassay, the order of effectiveness against T. castaneum was methacrifos > chlorpyrifos-methyl plus bioresmethrin > fenitrothion plus (1R)-phenothrin = pirimiphos-methyl plus carbaryl. The order of effectiveness against R. dominica was carbaryl plus pirimiphos-methyl = (1R)-phenothrin plus fenitrothion > methacrifos > bioresmethrin plus chlorpyrifos-methyl.  相似文献

Each of the combinations, bioresmethrin (1 mg kg?1) plus pirimiphos-methyl(6 mg kg?1) or fenitrothion (12 mg kg?1), was applied in 1976 to grain in 21 commercial storages. Grain condition and protectant residues were regularly monitored. Three storages became infested with Rhizopertha dominica (F.), but all storages remained free of other insect species. In two of the three infested storages, application of protectant was uneven, and the third became infested only after 8 months of storage. Despite some variations in recovered residues between sites, the mean residue levels were accurately described by predictive models. Falls in temperature during storage varied considerably, and were related to factors other than climate and bin size. There was a marked effect by aeration with ambient cold air on both the grain temperature and the rate of loss of residues. Results of collaborative studies on the determination of residues indicate a need for regular check programmes of analysis, and confirm previous conclusions that residues of fenitrothion and pirimiphos-methyl can be accurately and conventionally determined.  相似文献

The toxicities, to a laboratory susceptible strain and to a resistant strain of Oryzaephilus surinamensis (L.), of water-dispersible powder formulations of pirimiphos-methyl, fenitrothion or chlorpyrifos-methyl under constant conditions of 25°C and 70% r. h. were compared to the toxicities when the insects were exposed to a diurnal cycle of 12.5–20–12.5°C and 70–50–70% r. h. to simulate grain store conditions in the UK during spring and autumn. All the insecticides were more effective at 25°C and 70% r. h. The LD50 values for the susceptible strain were low, being 4.4 and 1.4 mg m?2 at 12.5-20°C and 25°C, respectively, for chlorpyrifos-methyl, 18.3 and 4.1 mg m?2, respectively, for pirimiphos-methyl, and 4.0 and < 1.O mg m?2, respectively, for fenitrothion. The LD50 values obtained from the two sets of environmental conditions for a resistant strain (484) differed by factors of 1.8 for chlorpyrifos-methyl, 4.8 for pirimiphos-methyl, and 7.3 for fenitrothion. Toxicity studies were also made with chlorpyrifos-methyl under various constant conditions of temperature and humidity from 5–30°C (5°C intervals) and 30, 50, 70 and 90% r. h., and also at O°C and 60% r. h. Chlorpyrifos-methyl was very effective and there was little or no cross resistance to chlorpyrifos-methyl in the resistant strain. From 15 to 30°C, mortality was high, and differences in mortality at the LD50 level for the various humidities were slight, but there was a decrease in mortality with decreasing humidity at any one temperature, in particular, at 5°C, 50 and 70% r. h., and 10°C and 50% r. h. Chlorpyrifosmethyl was more toxic to both strains at the highest humidity (90%) throughout the whole temperature range. The LD50 values for each strain decreased at each temperature as the water vapour concentration was increased. At O°C and 60% r. h., all the insects from both strains died but the cause of death was not clear.  相似文献

The uptake and metabolism of DDT, fenitrothion and chlorpyrifos were studied in cultures of the ciliate protozoan Tetrahymena pyriformis. When cultures were treated with DDT in concentrations varying from 0.01 to 0.5 μg ml−1, concentrations found in T. pyriformis were 3.8 to 335 μg g−1 dry weight. The accumulation of fenitrothion ranged from 28.7 μg g−1 in cultures treated with 1 μg ml−1 to 2260 μg g−1 in cultures treated with 10 μg ml−1. Under similar experimental conditions chlorpyrifos was accumulated from 24.7 to 15400 μg g−1. The patterns of uptake were dependent on the growth cycle, the ability of the organism to metabolise insecticide and the type of the insecticide used. Maximum accumulation of DDT, fenitrothion and chlorpyrifos occurred in 2, 4 and 6 h respectively. Tetrahymena metabolised DDT to DDD and DDE but failed to metabolise fenitrothion and chlorpyrifos. The effects on growth and morphology of T. pyriformis were studied over a period of 5 days. Higher concentrations (10, 50 and 100 μg ml−1) of DDT inhibited only the growth of the organisms and did not change cell morphology. Fenitrothion was extremely toxic to the organisms and at 5 and 10 μg ml−1 cells became more or less spherical and died after 48 h. However, concentrations of 0.5, 1 and 2.5 μg ml−1 fenitrothion caused growth inhibition, but only at 2.5 μg ml−1 was this permanent. Chlorpyrifos inhibited the growth of the organisms at 1, 5 and 10 μg ml−1 but the morphology was affected only at 5 and 10 μg ml−1.  相似文献

Pirimiphos-methyl [O-(2-diethylamino-6-methylpyrimidin-4-yl) O,O-dimethyl phosphorothioate], the active ingredient in ‘Actellic 50E’ (ICI PLC, Plant Protection Division) insecticide formulation, was field-applied at a rate of 7.5 kg a.i. 6000 litres?1 ha?1 to Spanish mandarin, orange and lemon trees growing in the main production areas (provinces of Castellón, Valencia, Alicante and Murcia). Dissipation curves over a 28-day post-application period, as well as the final residue levels at the harvest-time in precocious fruits, were determined in order to assist in the setting of legal fruit tolerances and harvest withholding periods. In all cases, residue decay could be fitted to two consecutive first-order processes. Final residue levels at harvest-time (the first fortnight of October) in precocious fruits, as a result of one, two or three sprays at the usual application dates (the first fortnight of June and/or September) were, respectively: for Clementina mandarins 0.05, 0.57 and 0.72; for Satsuma mandarins 0.09, 0.55 and 0.73; and for Navelina oranges 0.08, 0.25 and 0.46 mg of pirimiphos-methyl kg?1. The data indicated that starting from the seventh post-application day, pirimiphos-methyl degraded much more slowly in lemons growing in Alicante than in those growing in Murcia. It was speculated that this difference could be due to variations between the local field climates, or to a severe water stress, suffered by the orchard in Murcia as the result of a lack of irrigation water.  相似文献

Duplicate experiments were carried out on bulk sorghum stored in South Queensland and in Central Queensland. Bioassays of treated grain, conducted during 6 months' storage, established that fenitrothion (12 mg kg?1)+ bioresmethrin (1 mg kg?1), and pirimiphos-methyl (4 mg kg?1)+ carbaryl (8 mg kg?1), controlled typical malathionresistant strains of Sitophilus oryzae (L.), Rhyzopertha dominica (F.), Tribolium castaneum (Herbst), and Ephestia cautella (Walker). Chlorpyrifos-methyl (10 mg kg?1)+ pyrethrins (1.5 mg kg?1)+ piperonyl butoxide (12 mg kg?1), and fenitrothion (12 mg kg?1)+ (1R)-phenothrin (1 mg kg?1), also controlled the strains of S. oryzae, T. castaneum and E. cautella, but were only partly effective against R. dominica. Methacrifos (15 mg kg?1) controlled all the tested species except E. cautella. Chemical assays established that the residues and rates of breakdown of these grain protectants on sorghum conformed to the general pattern for other cereal grains; residues from the above treatments were below the individual Maximum Residue Limits recommended by the Codex Alimentarius Commission.  相似文献

Organophosphorothioates and synergised synthetic pyrethroids were used in duplicate field trials carried out on bulk wheat in commercial silos in Queensland and New South Wales. Laboratory bioassays using malathion-resistant strains of insects were carried out on samples of treated grain at intervals over 9 months. These established that all treatments were generally effective. Deltamethrin (2 mg kg?1)+ piperonyl butoxide (8 mg kg?1), fenitrothion (12 mg kg?1)+ fenvalerate (1 mg kg?1)+ piperonyl butoxide (8 mg kg?1), fenitrothion (12 mg kg?1)+ phenothrin (2 mg kg?1)+ piperonyl butoxide (8 mg kg?1) and pirimiphos-methyl (4 mg kg?1)+ permethrin (1 mg kg?1)+ piperonyl butoxide (8 mg kg?1) controlled common field strains of Sitophilus oryzae (L.) and Rhyzopertha dominica (F.). Against a highly resistant strain of S. oryzae, deltamethrin (2 mg kg?1)+ piperonyl butoxide (8 mg kg?1) was superior to the remaining treatments. All treatment combinations completely prevented progeny production in Tribolium castaneum (Herbst), T. confusum Jacquelin du Val and in Ephestia cautella (Walker). Residues of deltamethrin, fenvalerate, permethrin and phenothrin were determined and shown to be highly persistent on stored wheat. During milling, residues accumulated in the bran fractions and were reduced in white flour. They were not significantly reduced during baking.  相似文献

Wettable powder formulations of the organophosphorus insecticides, fenitrothion and pirimiphos-methyl, and the pyrethroids, permethrin and deltamethrin, have been compared for persistence and activity on woven polypropylene fabric; the residues produced in maize kept under the test sheets have also been measured. The test insects were Sitophilus oryzue (L.) and Tribolium custuneum (Herbst). Permethrin at 41 and 83 mg m?2 was completely effective for the full 12 weeks of the experiment. Deltamethrin at 6.2 and 12.5 mg m?2 was almost equally effective but after 4 weeks the deposit was slower acting against S. oryzae. The organophosphorus compounds were effective only up to 2 weeks at 250 mg m?2 and up to 4 weeks at 500 mg m?2. No residues could be detected under the pyrethroids but the organophosphorus insecticides gave residues of 2–4 mg kg?1 on a thin layer of grain. This residue was biologically effective against the test insects.  相似文献

The degradation rates and residue levels of diazinon, pirimiphos-methyl and chlorpyrifos in the leaves and fruits of pepper plants grown in commercial greenhouses were studied using g.l.c. Analysis of leaves at intervals following application showed that the initial residue of diazinon was higher than that of the other two insecticides, while its dissipation rate was faster. The dissipation of chlorpyrifos in fruits was faster than diazinon. The maximum residue levels (m.r.l.) of diazinon (0.5 mg kg?;1) and chlorpyrifos (0.1 mg kg?;1) were reached after 13 and 8 days of application respectively. With diazinon and pirimiphos-methyl, sprayed 3 weeks before inflorescence, very low concentrations of both insecticides were found in fruits, although these compounds have no systemic behaviour. Chlorpyrifos residue level of 0-2 mg kg ?;1 in harvested fruits did not drop below m.r.l. after 11 days holding period.  相似文献

Duplicate field trials were carried out on bulk wheat in commercial silos in Queensland and New South Wales. Laboratory bioassays on samples of treated grain at intervals over 9 months, using malathion-resistant strains of insects, established that treatments were generally effective. Fenitrothion (12 mg kg?1)+ (1R)-phenothrin (2 mg kg?1) was more effective than pirimiphos-methyl (6 mg kg?1) + carbaryl (10 mg kg?1) against Sitophilus oryzae (L.) and Ephestia cautella (Walker); the order of effectiveness was reversed for S. granarius (L.). Against Rhyzopertha dominica (F.), Tribolium castaneum (Herbst), T. confusum Jackquelin du Val and Oryzaephilus surinamensis (L.), both treatments effectively prevented the production of progeny. The order of persistence was pirimiphos-methyl> (1R)-phenothrin>carbaryl or fenitrothion. During processing from wheat to white bread, residues were reduced by 98% for carbaryl, >44% for (1R)-phenothrin, 98% for fenitrothion and 85% for pirimiphosmethyl.  相似文献

Trials were carried out over two consecutive years to compare the efficacy of chlorpyrifos-methyl, etrimfos, fenitrothion and pirimiphos-methyl against susceptible and organophosphorus-resistant strains of Tribolium castaneum Herbst, Sitophilus granarius L. and Oryzaephilus surinamensis L., gamma-HCH-resistant strains of Acarus siro L. and Glycyphagus destructor Schrank, and a susceptible strain of Tyrophagus longior Ger-vais. Pirimiphos-methyl was not evaluated against the three mite species as data on the efficacy of this material had previously been published. Etrimfos and pirimiphos-methyl were also tested against a susceptible and an organophosphorus-resistant strain of Sitophilus oryzae L. Each pesticide was applied to two separate 20-tonne batches of English wheat and stored under ambient conditions for 36 weeks. The efficacy of the pesticides was assessed regularly over the storage period using established bioassay techniques. However, chlorpyrifos-methyl and fenitrothion were assessed against susceptible and resistant strains of S. granarius for 32 weeks only. Each of the four pesticides produced >95% mortality of the susceptible strain of all insect species tested for the entire duration of the trial with the exception of fenitrothion, when survival of T. castaneum increased after 32 weeks. Only fenitrothion failed to give 100% mortality of the resistant strain of S. granarius throughout the trial, but even so, the mortality was always >95%. Chlorpyrifos-methyl, etrimfos and pirimiphos-methyl gave much better control of the resistant T. castaneum than fenitrothion, and etrimfos gave slightly better control of resistant O. surinamensis than pirimiphos-methyl which was in turn better than chlorpyrifos-methyl at 36 weeks. Both etrimfos and pirimiphos-methyl gave 100% mortality of the susceptible and resistant strains of S. oryzae. None of the pesticides maintained 100% kill of A. siro throughout the trial and fenitrothion failed to achieve this level of mortality after only 4 weeks. Etrimfos produced 100% mortality of the other two mites species tested throughout the trial, whereas both chlorpyrifos-methyl and fenitrothion achieved this level of mortality for 32 weeks.  相似文献

Effects of three insecticides, diazinon, fenitrothion and chlorpyrifos on Andrallus spinidens Fabricius (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), a predator of lepidopterous larvae in rice fields were investigated. The insecticides were applied topically at lethal dose (LD30) on the fifth instar nymphs of A. spinidens and evaluated on life table and some biochemical parameters of the predatory bugs. The results showed that pre-oviposition period, fecundity and longevity of treated bugs were significantly affected compared with the control. Analysis of life table parameters of A. spinidens revealed adverse effects of insecticides on net reproductive rate (R0), intrinsic rate of increase (r), finite rate of increase (λ), doubling time (DT) and mean generation time (T). Among the tested insecticides, fenitrothion was the most toxic insecticide. The lowest value of r was 0.060 day?1 in fenitrothion. Effects of insecticides on the detoxification enzymes showed that all compounds had inhibitory effect on esterases, acetylcholinesterases and glutathione S-transferases. According to this study, the insecticides cause harmful effects on demographic and biochemical parameters of A. spinidens and are not compatible with the predatory bug even at sublethal concentration.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Five formulated insecticides (lambda‐cyhalothrin at 10 mg m?2, bifenthrin at 50 mg m?2, fipronil at 10 mg m?2, fenitrothion at 50 mg m?2, imidacloprid at 5 mg m?2) and one active ingredient (DDT at 500 mg m?2) were evaluated using a surface contact method against early and late instars and adults of two strains of the tropical bed bug, Cimex hemipterus (F.). Synergism of lambda‐cyhalothrin and fipronil using piperonyl butoxide (PBO) was also assessed. RESULTS: The order of susceptibility of different stages of bed bugs was as follows: early stage ? lambda‐cyhalothrin > bifenthrin = imidacloprid > fipronil > fenitrothion > DDT; late stage—lambda‐cyhalothrin > bifenthrin > fenitrothion > imidacloprid > fipronil > DDT; adult—lambda‐cyhalothrin > imidacloprid > bifenthrin > fenitrothion > fipronil > DDT. The late instars exhibited significantly higher LT50 among the life stages. The addition of PBO to fipronil increased the susceptibility of the insects. CONCLUSIONS: Lambda‐cyhalothrin, bifenthrin, fenitrothion and fipronil at the recommended application rates were effective against C. hemipterus. Although imidacloprid demonstrated good initial response against C. hemipterus, the insects showed substantial recovery 72 h post‐treatment. The late instars (fourth and fifth instars) should be used as the model for toxicological evaluation. Copyright © 2011 Society of Chemical Industry  相似文献

In laboratory experiments, whole wheat was treated with pirimiphos-methyl or carbaryl or combinations of these two insecticides; the treated grain was then adjusted to a 12% moisture content and stored at 25°C for bioassay at various intervals over a period of 39 weeks. Pirimiphos-methyl at 5.1 mg kg?1 effectively controlled Sitophilus granarius (L.) and Tribolium confusum Jacquelin du Val but was ineffective against Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) CRD 118, a strain showing malathion resistance. Conversely, carbaryl at 6.5 mg kg?1 (but not at 3.1 mg kg?1) was effective against R. dominica, but ineffective against the other two species. A combination of pirimiphosmethyl + carbaryl, at 1.8 + 5.1 mg kg?1, controlled S. granarius and R dominica but not T. confusum, whilst a 4.2 + 3.4 mg kg?1 combination was relatively more effective against T. confusum but less so against R. dominica. In a separate experiment, whole wheat was treated with carbaryl at 2.5, 5.0 and 7.5 mg kg?1 (nominal rates). Samples were stored and, at various times after the treatments, were bioassayed with R. dominica CRD 2, at 20, 25, 30 and 35°C. The results were comparable with those for the CRD 118 strain, but efficacy was reduced at higher temperatures. The combination of pirimiphos-methyl at 4–5 mg kg?1 and carbaryl at 5–6 mg kg?1 is suggested as a potentially useful grain protectant where R. dominica is a problem and long term storage is required. These results are discussed in relation to the protection of stored grain in Australia.  相似文献

The stability of some diluted emulsifiable concentrate formulations in clear liquid fertilizers, as affected by the nature and concentration of the salt solutions, was checked by a static test. The time-induced changes in the concentration of the dispersed phase were estimated by visual observations and turbidity measurements. For each formulation a specific relationship between the electrical conductivity of all the fertilizer solutions and the emulsion stability was found. This was valid for a pH range between 4.6–6.3; in alkaline conditions the emulsion stability was relatively lower. A critical electrical conductivity range, above which irreversible destabilization occurred, was observed for each formulation: 100-120 dS m?1 for fenamiphos, 60-70 dS m?1 for metolachlor, 30-50 dS m?1 for chlorpyrifos, and about 45 dS m?1 for S-ethyl dipropylthiocarbamate (EPTC). The correlation observed between the emulsion stability and the electrical conductivity could be used in a simple and rapid qualitative test to estimate the physical compatibility between emulsifiable concentrate formulations and liquid fertilizers.  相似文献

Field trials with various pesticide combinations were carried out on bulk wheat in commercial silos in Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia. Laboratory bioassays on samples of treated grain at intervals over 8 months using malathion-susceptible and malathion-resistant strains established the following orders of efficacy: against Sitophilus oryzae (L.), chlorpyrifos-methyl 10 mg kg?1 + bioresmethrin 1 mg kg?1 = methacrifos 15 mg kg?1 in aerated storage > pirimiphos-methyl 4 or 6 mg kg?1 + bioresmethrin 1 mg kg?1 = bioresmethrin 4 mg kg?1 + piperonyl butoxide 16 mg kg?1; against Rhyzopertha dominica (F.), bioresmethrin 4 mg kg?1 + piperonyl butoxide 16 mg kg?1 > methacrifos 15 mg kg?1 > chlorpyrifos-methyl 10 mg kg?1 + bioresmethrin 1 mg kg?1 = pirimiphos-methyl 4 or 6 mg kg?1 + bioresmethrin 1 mg kg?1. All treatments completely prevented production of progeny in Sitophilus granarius (L.), Tribolium castaneum (Herbst), T. confusum Jackquelin du Val and Oryzaephilus surinamensis (L.). The biological efficacy of methacrifos was greater and the rate of degradation lower in aerated than in non-aerated storage. Residue levels of all compounds were determined chemically and were below proposed international residue levels to be considered by the Codex Alimentarius Commission.  相似文献

Several laboratory studies have indicated that neem seed-kernel extracts, or the neem insecticide azadirachtin, are active against certain types of pestiferous insects but do not harm several types of beneficial arthropods. The abundance of several groups of invertebrates inhabiting a turf grass ecosystem was determined in 1991 after application of a neem-based insecticide formulation, “Margosan-O®” (MO; W. R. Grace & Co., Columbia, Maryland, USA) containing 3.0 g litre?1 azadirachtin, and chlorpyrifos. MO was less detrimental than chlorpyrifos to most of the invertebrates studied. However, oribatid mites were more sensitive to MO than to chlorpyrifos. Sminthurid and non-sminthurid collembola were also susceptible to MO, although less so than to chlorpyrifos. MO had no significant effect on non-oribatid mites and spiders. Environmental implications of using selective versus broad-spectrum insecticides in agriculture are discussed.  相似文献

Chlorpyrifos [O,O-diethyl O-(3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridyl) phosphorothioate] is an organophosphorus insecticide applied to soil to control pests both in agricultural and in urban developments. Typical agricultural soil applications (0.56 to 5.6 kg ha?1) result in initial soil surface residues of 0.3 to 32 μg g?1. In contrast, termiticidal soil barrier treatments, a common urban use pattern, often result in initial soil residues of 1000 μg g?1 or greater. The purpose of the present investigation was to understand better the degradation of chlorpyrifos in soil at termiticidal application rates and factors affecting its behaviour. Therefore, studies with [14C]chlorpyrifos were conducted under a variety of conditions in the laboratory. Initially, the degradation of chlorpyrifos at 1000 μg g?1 initial concentration was examined in five different soils from termite-infested regions (Arizona, Florida, Hawaii, Texas) under standard conditions (25°C, field moisture capacity, darkness). Degradation half-lives in these soils ranged from 175 to 1576 days. The major metabolite formed in chlorpyrifos-treated soils was 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyrid-inol, which represented up to 61% of applied radiocarbon after 13 months of incubation. Minor quantities of [14C]carbon dioxide (< 5%) and soil-bound residues (? 12%) were also present at that time. Subsequently, a factorial experiment examining chlorpyrifos degradation as affected by initial concentration (10, 100, 1000 μg g?1), soil moisture (field moisture capacity, 1.5 MPa, air dry), and temperature 15, 25, 35°C) was conducted in the two soils which had displayed the most (Texas) and least (Florida) rapid rates of degradation. Chlorpyrifos degradation was significantly retarded at the 1000 μg g?1 rate as compared to the 10 μg g?1 rate. Temperature also had a dramatic effect on degradation rate, which approximately doubled with each 10°C increase in temperature. Results suggest that the extended (3–24 + years) termiticidal efficacy of chlorpyrifos observed in the field may be due both to the high initial concentrations employed (termite LC 50 = 0.2– 2 μg g?1) and the extended persistence which results from employment of these rates. The study also highlights the importance of investigating the behaviour of a pesticide under the diversity of agricultural and urban use scenarios in which it is employed.  相似文献

Broadcast sprays of several herbicides were applied at different times of the year at several sites in Hawkes Bay, Canterbury and Otago. For good thistle control, date of application was more important than types of herbicide. In Hawkes Bay, applications made in April, May and June tended to be the most effective. Under slightly cooler Canterbury conditions, April, September and October were the best application dates. In the Otago trials, spring emergence of thistle seedlings meant that the most consistent results came from September or October applications. At all sites, applications made in July or August were relatively ineffective, probably because of low winter temperatures and slow thistle growth rates. MCPA (potassium salt) at 1·0 kg ha?1 was the standard herbicide used in all experiments. MCPA at 0·5 kg ha?1, MCPB (sodium salt) at 0·5 and 1·0 kg ha?1 and 2,4-D at 0·5 kg ha?1 did not kill as many thistles as MCPA at 1·0 kg ha?1. MCPA at 1·5 kg ha?1 and MCPB (butyl) ester + clopyralid at 0·5 + 0·015 or 1·0+0·03 kg ha?1 gave consistently better control than MCPA at 1·0 kg ha?1 2,4-D at 1·0 or 1·5 kg ha?1, MCPB at 1·5 or 2·0 kg ha?1, and MCPA + MCPB at 0·33 + 1·0 or 0·67 + 0·5 kg ha?1 gave results very similar to MCPA at 1 kg ha?1. Thistle control varied between sites and years. Some of the variation may have been due to different proportions of first and second year thistles present at spraying, and to variation in genetically determined herbicide susceptibility. Chemical control of thistles was short term only, because of dormant seeds in the soil.  相似文献

BACKGROUND

Sublethal effects of insecticides may negatively affect several biological and behavioral traits of insects. The lethal effects of pirimiphos-methyl and chlorfenapyr have been previously showed on Trogoderma granarium, but little knowledge is available about their sublethal effects at low concentrations on both sexes. Herein, the sublethal effects of pirimiphos-methyl and chlorfenapyr on the mobility of T. granarium males and females were investigated.

RESULTS

Lethal concentration (LC) values of pirimiphos-methyl and chlorfenapyr were lower for T. granarium females than males. LC values on males were LC10 = 0.000788 and 0.00139 mg active ingredient (a.i.) cm−2, LC30 = 0.00350 and 0.00535 mg a.i. cm−2, and LC50 = 0.00986 and 0.0136 mg a.i. cm−2 for pirimiphos-methyl and chlorfenapyr respectively. LC on females were LC10 = 0.000704 and 0.00110 mg a.i. cm−2, LC30 = 0.00323 and 0.00428 mg a.i. cm−2, and LC50 = 0.00925 and 0.0110 mg a.i. cm−2 for pirimiphos-methyl and chlorfenapyr respectively. The walking duration of beetles exposed to LC30 of pirimiphos-methyl was significantly lower than the individuals exposed to LC10 and LC30 of both insecticides and control ones. Pirimiphos-methyl LC30-exposed males remained more time on their back (101.7 s) than females (46.9 s), while the latter stayed immobile longer than males (381.7 s versus 371.9 s). The highest speed was recorded for control beetles (14.17 mm s−1 females vs. 12.44 mm s−1 males), while the lowest speed was observed in pirimiphos-methyl LC30-treated males (8.36 mm s−1) and females (9.66 mm s−1).

CONCLUSIONS

Overall, males and females exposed to low concentrations of pirimiphos-methyl and chlorfenapyr showed reduced motility. This knowledge can be exploited further to unlock behavioral effects of insecticides for effective pest management programs in warehouses. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.  相似文献
