利用菜青虫细胞检测几种有机溶剂和有机磷农药的毒力

用MTT法研究了5种有机溶剂对菜青虫细胞生长的影响及3种有机磷农药对细胞的毒力。并用微量点滴法测定了3种农药对菜青虫3龄幼虫的毒力。结果表明,5种有机溶剂除二甲苯外,其余4种二甲亚砜、乙醇、丙酮、乙酸乙酯对菜青虫细胞低浓度处理时均无很大毒性。1％浓度处理16小时后细胞存活率仍分别可达99.8％、98％、97.2％、91％。分别用菜青虫细胞测得3种有机磷农药的LC_(50)为:甲基对硫磷,106μs/ml;克线磷,147μg/ml;水胺硫磷,183μg/ml。用微量点滴法测得3种有机磷农药对菜青虫3龄幼虫的LD_(50)分别为:甲基对硫磷,0.458μg/头,克线磷,45.012μg/头;水胺硫磷,0.505μg/头。     

特谱唑防治小麦锈病毒理与应用技术的初步研究

据室内测定结果,特谱唑具有很强的内吸传导性能,用灌土法施药的效果可与叶面喷雾法相比拟,但基本上是向上传导。此药具有很强的治疗和铲除作用,在病菌潜育期施药,可控制到不发病,最多只显退绿斑;在退绿期施药,可使病菌夏孢子堆变成褐色小点,孢子粉极少,但对夏孢子的萌发影响则弱。此药剂比三唑酮毒力强,其毒力指数(三唑酮为100)都在900以上,即达到 EC_(50)和 EC_(95)所需的剂量,前者只需后者的11%以下,特别是保护作用突出。据田间试验结果,此药剂的用药量比三唑酮少,如控制条锈病为害所需的剂量只要三唑酮的三分之一。防治条锈病的用药量一般以45—47g/ha(有效成分)为合适;用药期以病叶率5%—10%、小麦处于旗叶伸长期为宜;施药次数以上述的合适剂量和适期喷施1次即可控制整个成株期条锈病为害,收到最佳的经济效益。

我国稻区稗草对丁草胺抗药性现状

１９９１－１９９３年，对我国三大栽培类型稻区内９个监测网点的稗草抗药水平发展动态进行了系统的追踪监测。结果显示：我国稗草对丁草胺已产生了明显的抗药性。以ＬＣ５０和ＬＣ９０作为标准，最高抗性系数分别由１９９１年的２．９０和２．７９，上升至１９９３年的５．４２和１１．０４。在丁草胺连续使用８年以上地区，抗性水平呈急剧上升之势。稗草对丁草胺的抗性水平与连续使用时间呈正相关，而与ａ－淀粉酶活性抑制率呈反相     

Metal chelate molluscicides: The redistribution of iron diazaalkanolates from the gut lumen of the slug,Deroceras reticulatum (Müller) (Pulmonata: Limacidae)

Two related iron chelates, one toxic to slugs by ingestion, the other not, were introduced into the foregut of D. reticulatum. The subsequent movement and redistribution of the metal within the slug tissues was studied by labelling the chelates with the radioactive isotope ⁵⁵Fe. In slugs which survived treatment approximately half of the ⁵⁵Fe was voided in faeces. The iron retained became unevenly distributed, the highest concentration occurring in the digestive gland, irrespective of the chelate used. At high doses, slugs treated with tris(1-oxo-1,2-diazabutan-2-oxido)Fe(III) were fatally poisoned while those treated with the homologue, tris(1-oxo-1,2-diazaoctan-2-oxido)Fe(III) were not. Slugs killed by the toxic chelate consistently contained proportionally less iron in the digestive gland and proportionally more in the body wall and reproductive system. Dosing slugs already killed by carbon dioxide asphyxiation gave a similar pattern, suggesting that the greater mobility of the iron from the toxic chelate was not a function of the slugs' metabolism.

Contribution of contact toxicity and wheat condition to mortality of stored-product insects exposed to spinosad

Spinosad, a reduced-risk commercial insecticide derived from a bacterial fermentation product, possesses both contact and oral toxicities against insects. Contact toxicity of spinosad to adults of Rhyzopertha dominica (F), Sitophilus oryzae (L), and Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) was evaluated by exposure for 24 or 48 h to treated glass Petri dishes. Adults were exposed to different deposits (0.001-0.79 mg cm(-2)) of spinosad in 24-h tests and to deposits of 0, 0.0016 and 0.016mg cm(-2) in 48-h tests. Rhyzopertha dominica was most susceptible to spinosad in 24- and 48-h tests, followed by S. oryzae, and T. castaneum. The 24-h LD50 values were 0.0004, 0.077 and 0.189mg cm(-2) for R. dominica, S. oryzae, and T. castaneum, respectively. All R. dominica adults were dead following 48 h exposure to both spinosad deposits, whereas mortality of S. oryzae and T. castaneum ranged from 10 to 85% and 12 to 48%, respectively. Rhyzopertha dominica, T. castaneum, and O. surinamensis adults were exposed for 14 days to whole wheat, cracked wheat and wheat flour treated with 0, 0.1 and 1.0 mg kg(-1) of spinosad. Rhyzopertha dominica adults were highly susceptible to spinosad, followed by O. surinamensis and T. castaneum. Immatures (eggs and larvae) of T. castaneum and O. surinamensis exposed for 14 days were more susceptible on spinosad-treated whole wheat than on treated cracked wheat and wheat flour. This is the first report documenting contact activity of spinosad, and the effect of grain condition on spinosad toxicity, to stored-product insects.     

Toxicity of cyanogen to insects of stored grain

Range-finding studies on the toxicity of cyanogen to all stages of five species of stored product Coleoptera are reported. The species were Rhyzopertha dominica (F), Sitophilus granarius (L), Sitophilus Oryzae (L), Tribolium castaneum (Herbst), Tribolium confusum Jacquelin du Val and Ephestia cautella (Walker). Exposures for 24 h to cyanogen at 1.3 mg litre(-1) controlled all external stages. Control of internal stages of Sitophilus species was achieved by a 5-day exposure to initial concentrations between 13.7 and 27.4 mg litre(-1), whereas R. dominica was controlled at 13.7 mg litre(-1). Cyanogen showed similar toxicity to all tested external stages and, in this respect, was more similar to methyl bromide than to phosphine. Its toxicity to insects increased with both relative humidity and concentration of carbon dioxide. Cyanogen was toxic to insects whether applied as a gas or in an aqueous solution.     

Learning performances of honeybees (Apis mellifera L) are differentially affected by imidacloprid according to the season

To establish the sublethal concentrations domain, acute and chronic oral tests were conducted on caged honeybee workers (Apis mellifera L) using imidacloprid and a metabolite, 5-OH-imidacloprid, under laboratory conditions. The latter showed a 48-h oral LD50 value (153 ng per bee) five times higher than that of imidacloprid (30 ng per bee). Chronic feeding tests indicated that the lowest observed effect concentrations (LOEC) of imidacloprid and of 5-OH-imidacloprid on mortality of winter bees were 24 and 120 microg kg(-1) respectively. Behavioural effects of imidacloprid and 5-OH-imidacloprid were studied using the olfactory conditioning of proboscis extension response at two periods of the year. Winter bees surviving chronic treatment with imidacloprid and 5-OH-imidacloprid had reduced learning performances. The LOEC of imidacloprid was lower in summer bees (12 microg kg(-1)) than in winter bees (48 microg kg(-1)), which points to a greater sensitivity of honeybees behaviour in summer bees, compared to winter bees.
