Insecticides can have lethal or sublethal effects upon targeted pest species, and may even favor outbreaks if insecticide-induced hormesis occurs. Hormesis is a biphasic dose–response of given chemical compound that stimulatory at low doses toxic high doses. The former response result from the disruption animal homeostasis leading to trade-off shifts between basic ecophysiological processes. A growing interest in use biorational insecticides, such as azadirachtin control stored-product...
Individual traits vary among and within populations, the co-occurrence of different endosymbiont species a host may take place under varying loads in each individual host. This makes recognition potential impact such associations insect difficult, particularly pest species. The maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais Motsch. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), key stored cereal grains, exhibits with two endosymbiotic bacteria: obligatory SZPE ("Sitophilus Primary Endosymbiont") facultative Wolbachia. lack...
O arroz-vermelho e o arroz-preto constituem-se nas principais plantas daninhas infestantes da cultura de arroz irrigado, devido à dificuldade controle seletivo desta espécie em lavouras comerciais. A utilização cultivares geneticamente modificados resistentes a herbicidas não-seletivos constitui uma alternativa do irrigado. objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar comportamento populações híbridas F2 originárias cruzamento entre transgênico resistente ao herbicida glufosinato amônio (arroz GM) ou...
Larval competition is particularly prevalent among grain beetles that remain within their mother-selected throughout development, and the behavioral process of usually inferred by outcome. The Mexican bean weevil Zabrotes subfasciatus (Boheman) subjected to resource availability variation because diversity common types sizes, from small (e.g., kidney beans) large cranberry beans). was identified in reared on beans inference outcome direct observation through digital X-ray imaging.

Este trabalho foi conduzido objetivando avaliar os efeitos do adensamento sobre a senescencia foliar no enchimento de graos e produtividade hibridos milho liberados comercialmente para cultivo em diferentes epocas. O experimento Lages, SC, Brasil, nos anos agricolas 2008/2009 2009/2010. Dois foram avaliados: AG 303 (hibrido antigo - HA) P30F53 contemporâneo HC). Cada hibrido testado cinco densidades: 25.000, 50.000, 75.000, 100.000 125.000 pl ha -1 . Avaliaram-se sincronia floral, area verde...
A first step in any pest management initiative is recognizing the existing problem - identifying species and its abundance dispersal capacities. This not simple even more challenging when insidious (invasive) are involved constituting a complex. Understanding species' population diversity structure can provide better understanding of adaptation relative potential. Such need for native rice stink bug Oebalus poecilus invasive O. ypsilongriseus low high flatlands South America.The genetic...
