AI Article Synopsis

  • Nucleopolyhedrosis viruses, specifically HaNPV, can effectively manage agricultural pests, especially when combined with insecticides.
  • The study tested 15 combinations of HaNPV with two insecticides (spinetoram and emamectin benzoate) in varying doses on larvae under laboratory conditions.
  • Findings showed synergistic effects between specific doses of HaNPV and the insecticides, suggesting these combinations could enhance pest management, particularly for resistant populations.

Article Abstract

Nucleopolyhedrosis viruses can be utilized for effective management of agriculture pests. Their efficacy can be increased if they are mixed with certain insecticides. In the current study, HaNPV was mixed with two insecticides: spinetoram and emamectin benzoate in various combinations and applied to larvae of in laboratory conditions. There were a total of 15 combinations of HaNPV with each of the two insecticides in addition to five doses of HaNPV and three doses of insecticides alone. The synergistic and antagonistic effects of combinations were explored. The results revealed that there was synergistic effect of HaNPV @ 0.5 × 10 PIB/ml × Spinetoram @ 40, 20, 10 ml/100 L of water. In case of emamectin benzoate, synergistic effects were recorded at 1 × 10 PIB/ml HaNPV × emamectin benzoate @ 100 ml/100 L of water. However, 0.5 × 10 PIB/ml HaNPV has synergistic effects with all three doses of emamectin benzoate. The results suggested that HaNPV can be used in combination with spinetoram and emamectin benzoate for the management of resistant population of .

Background: Emamectin·chlorfenapyr is a compound comprising chlorfenapyr and emamectin benzoate that is widely used in agriculture. Chlorfenapyr toxicity has been verified in animals; however, its true mechanism and progression in humans remain to be elucidated. Cases of emamectin·chlorfenapyr poisoning are seldom.

Background: The salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) is a parasite of wild and farmed salmonid fish, causing huge economic damage to the commercial farming of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in the northern hemisphere. The avermectin emamectin benzoate (EMB) is widely used for salmon delousing. While resistance to EMB is widespread in Atlantic populations of L.

Background: The rice stem borer, Chilo suppressalis Walker (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), is a damaging pest of rice worldwide. Following the evolution of C. suppressalis resistance to diamide and abamectin insecticides, emamectin benzoate (EB) became a key insecticide for the control of this species in China.

Emamectin benzoate (EMB) is a pesticide that is frequently used. Nanoplastics (NPs) are a recently identified class of pollutants that are ubiquitous in the environment. In the aquatic environment, NPs can appear together with EMB, which may exacerbates the damage to water and aquatic organisms.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the role of two specific genes (PxFMO2 and SeCYP9A186) in insecticide resistance in the diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella) by using transgenic technology.
  • Two transgenic strains were created: one expressing PxFMO2 showed significant resistance to certain pesticides (12-fold for emamectin benzoate), while the strain with SeCYP9A186 exhibited even greater resistance (235-fold).
  • The findings highlight how these genes contribute to resistance and offer potential tools for genetic manipulation to improve pest management strategies.
