Effects of sublethal fipronil exposure on cross-generational functional responses and gene expression in Binodoxys communis.

The effective systemic insecticide fipronil is widely used on a variety of crops and in public spaces to control insect pests. Binodoxys communis (Gahan) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) is the dominant natural enemy of Aphis gossypii Glover (Homoptera: Aphididae), an important cotton pest, and has good efficiency in inhibiting aphid populations. The direct effects of environmental residues of sublethal fipronil doses on adult B.

Assessment of the risk of imidaclothiz to the dominant aphid parasitoid Binodoxys communis (Hymenoptera: Braconidae).

The neonicotinoid of imidaclothiz insecticide with low resistance and high efficiency, has great potential for application in pest control in specifically cotton field. In this systematically evaluate the effects of sublethal doses of imidaclothiz (LC: 11.48 mg/L; LC: 28.

Dynamics of symbiotic bacterial community in whole life stage of (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae).

Introduction: Bacteria play critical roles in the reproduction, metabolism, physiology, and detoxification of their insect hosts. The ladybird beetle () harbors a myriad of endosymbiotic microbes. However, to date, little is known about how the microbial composition of varies throughout its life cycle.
