Ephestia elutella larvae in diapause were exposed at 25°C to methyl bromide at 12 mg litre?1 for 3.5 or 7.5 h and then immediately exposed to a lower concentration. The minimum effective concentration (that at which Haber's rule, concentration × time = k, a constant for mortality, still applied) was about 3 mg litre?1 in tests with no previous exposure toa high concentration, but it was about 2.5 mg litre?1 for individuals surviving a 3.5 h exposure to 12 mg litre?1, and was about 1.6 mg litre?1 for those surviving a 7.5 h exposure to 12 mg litre?1. These exposures to 12 mg litre?1, respectively, killed 2–20% and 50–75% of larvae exposed, and hence the smaller the proportion of survivors of exposure to a high concentration, the lower the minimum effective concentration needed against them. Thus the low concentration persisting at the end of a practical fumigation should contribute significantly to the success of the treatment and be much more effective than any similar low concentration present soon after the introduction of gas.  相似文献

The performance of low concentrations of methyl bromide against diapausing larvae of Ephestia elutella at 15 and 25°C was assessed in extended exposure periods. At concentrations of 1.9 mg litre?1 and below, test batches required higher concentration-time (ct) products for 100% kill at 25°C than at 15°C. The minimum concentration at which the concentration: time relationship still applied was between 1.3 and 1.9 mg litre?1 at 15°C, whereas at 25°C it was between 2.7 and 4.0 mg litre?1. For many individuals within each population sample, however, lower concentrations at moderate dosage levels remained lethal. At 25°C, a ct product of about 90 mg litre?1 h gave between 53 and 77% kill at 6.1, 4.0, 2.7 and 1.9 mg litre?1. The trends observed suggest that the most tolerant members of the population have an enhanced ability to detoxify methyl bromide at the higher temperature. The implications of the results for the build-up of resistance and for practical control measures are discussed.  相似文献

Warehouse moth (Ephestia elutella) larvae in diapause were exposed at 15°C to methyl bromide at 8 mg litre?1 for 14.5 h and then immediately exposed at a lower concentration. The exposure at 8 mg litre?1 killed 44–69% of the larvae treated. Subsequent concentrations down to 1.1 mg litre?1 obeyed Haber's rule (concentration × time= k, a constant for mortality), but a higher concentration-time product (ct) was required for over 90% kill at 0.8 mg litre?1. Only concentrations down to 1.9 mg litre?1 obey Haber's rule if there is no prior exposure at a higher concentration. Although minimum effective concentrations are lower at 15°C than at 25°C, exposure at a higher concentration depresses the subsequent level to a similar extent at each temperature. The contribution to the efficacy of a treatment, of low concentrations persisting at the end of fumigation, is thus likely to be even greater at moderate to low temperatures than at 25°C. The implications for the development of resistance to methyl bromide are discussed.  相似文献

Uptake of aminotriazole (3-amino-1,2,4-triazole) by bean leaves (Phaseolus vulgaris var. Canadian Wonder) was not greatly influenced by the addition to the spray solution of dimethylformamide (DMF), ethylene glycol and polypropylene glycol 400 (PPG 400) over the concentration range 1.0–50.0 ml litre?1. However, the addition of polyoxyethylene 20 sorbitan monolaurate (polysorbate 20) (0.2–1.0 g litre?1) to spray solutions of the above additives and glycerol (5.0 ml litre?1; except for DMF, 50.0 ml litre?1) substantially increased uptake to 80–100% in all cases at 50 ± 10% relative humidity (r.h.). Similar penetration figures were recorded when a range of polysorbate surfactants (polysorbate 20, 40, 60, 80 and 85; 0.2 g litre?1) were applied to spray solutions containing either dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) or glycerol (5.0 ml litre?1). Humidity was found to have a critical effect upon the humectant-surfactant combinations tested, i.e. DMSO + polysorbate 20, ethylene glycol+ polysorbate 20 and PPG + 400-polysorbate 20 (5.0 ml litre?1+0.2 g litre?1). With DMSO + polysorbate 20 the following uptake figures were recorded: < 30% r.h., 3.1 %; 45 ± 10% r.h., 86.8%; 55–65% r.h., 48.2 % and 100% r.h., 0.3%. Similar trends were recorded with all three humectant-surfactant combinations. Further studies revealed that the adverse effect of humidity on DMSO-polysorbate mixtures could be at least overcome partially by regulating the DMSO concentration.  相似文献

Twelve ureas and thioureas with 1,3-diphenyl- and 1-phenyl-3-(2-pyridyl) were tested as potential herbicides in a simple screen against two species of algae Chlorella fusca and Anabaena variabilis. Several were shown to inhibit growth at 100 mg litre?1 but only 1-[2,4-bis(azidosulphonyl)phenyl]-3-(2-pyridyl)urea and 1,3-bis(4-isopropyl- idenehydrazinosulphonylphenyl)thiourea showed any activity at 1 mg litre?1. This compares with the well-established urea herbicide diuron which, in identical tests, gives similar inhibition of growth at concentrations as low as 0.01 mg litre?1.  相似文献

Structure-concentration–foliar uptake enhancement relationships between commercial polyoxyethylene primary aliphatic alcohol (A), nonylphenol (NP), primary aliphatic amine (AM) surfactants and the herbicide glyphosatemono(isopropylammonium) were studied in experiments with wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and field bean (Vicia faba L.) plants growing under controlled-environment conditions. Candidate surfactants had mean molar ethylene oxide (EO) contents ranging from 5 to 20 and were added at concentrations varying from 0·2 to 10 g litre?-1 to [14C]glyphosate formulations in acetone–water. Rates and total amounts of herbicide uptake from c. 0·2–μl droplet applications of formulations to leaves were influenced by surfactant EO content, surfactant hydrophobe composition, surfactant concentration, glyphosate concentration and plant species, in a complex manner. Surfactant effects were most pronounced at 0·5 g acid equivalent (a.e.) glyphosate litre?-1 where, for both target species, surfactants of high EO content (15–20) were most effective at enhancing herbicide uptake: surfactants of lower EO content (5–10) frequently reduced, or failed to improve, glyphosate absorption. Whereas, at optimal EO content, AM surfactants caused greatest uptake enhancement on wheat, A surfactants gave the best overall performance on field bean; NP surfactants were generally the least efficient class of adjuvants on both species. Threshold concentrations of surfactants needed to increase glyphosate uptake were much higher in field bean than wheat (c. 2 g litre?-1 and < 1 g litre?-1, respectively); less herbicide was taken up by both species at high AM surfactant concentrations. At 5 and 10 g a.e. glyphosate litre?-1, there were substantial increases in herbicide absorption and surfactant addition could cause effects on uptake that were different from those observed at lower herbicide doses. In particular, the influence of EO content on glyphosate uptake was now much less marked in both species, especially with AM surfactants. The fundamental importance of glyphosate concentration for its uptake was further emphasised by experiments using formulations with constant a.i./surfactant weight ratios. Any increased foliar penetration resulting from inclusion of surfactants in 0·5 g litre?-1 [14C]glyphosate formulations gave concomitant increases in the amounts of radiolabel that were translocated away from the site of application. At these low herbicide doses, translocation of absorbed [14C]glyphosate in wheat was c. twice that in field bean; surfactant addition to the formulation did not increase the proportion transported in wheat but substantially enhanced it in field bean.  相似文献

The fumigant toxicity of various volatile constituents of essential oils extracted from sixteen Korean spices and medicinal plants towards the rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae L (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), was determined. The most potent toxicity was found in the essential oil from Mentha arvensis L var piperascens (LC50 = 45.5 µl litre?1 air). GC–MS analysis of essential oil from M arvensis showed it to be rich in menthol (63.2%), menthone (13.1%) and limonene (1.5%), followed in abundance by β‐pinene (0.7%), α‐pinene (0.6%) and linalool (0.2%). Treatment of S oryzae with each of these terpenes showed menthone to be most active (LC50 = 12.7 µl litre?1 air) followed by linalool (LC50 = 39.2 µl litre?1 air) and α‐pinene (LC50 = 54.9 µl litre?1 air). Studies on inhibition of acetylcholinesterase activity of S oryzae showed menthone to have a nine‐fold lower inhibitory effect than menthol, despite menthone being 8.1‐fold more toxic than menthol to the rice weevil. Different modes of toxicity of these monoterpenes towards S oryzae are discussed. © 2001 Society of Chemical Industry  相似文献

The antifeedant effect of five organotin compounds (fentin acetate, fentin hydroxide, fentin chloride, cyhexatin and fenbutatin oxide) and of three other compounds known to possess antifeeding activity (guazatine triacetate, 4′-chloroacetophenone isobutyrylhydrazone and thiram) was investigated by feeding treated alfalfa to larvae of Boarmia selenaria. The three fentins and cyhexatin were highly active at 0.1 g litre?1, the order of activity at this concentration being fentin chloride > fentin hydroxide > fentin acetate ? cyhexatin, whereas the other compounds were practically inactive at either this or a somewhat higher concentration (0.5 g litre?1). Guazatine triacetate had a concentration-independent antifeedant effect at much higher concentrations (5–20 g litre?1).  相似文献

A competitive enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) has been developed for the detection of the insecticide flucythrinate in environmental and food samples. Two types of haptens, the acid moiety that is the hydrolyzed product of flucythrinate, and the carboxylated propyl derivative of the alcohol moiety, were used to prepare monoclonal antibodies (MAbs). Five MAbs, which raised against the former hapten, were reactive with flucythrinate. Among them, MAb F1A27‐4 showed the highest activity toward flucythrinate, and did not cross‐react with other pyrethroids such as cycloprothrin, fenvalerate, fluvalinate, etofenprox and silafluofen. The assay conditions of indirect competitive ELISA with MAb F1A27‐4 were studied to optimize the detection of flucythrinate in environmental and food samples. Incubation at 4 °C in the assay buffer, pH 8, with 300 mM sodium chloride improved the sensitivity. The addition of rabbit serum albumin or rabbit antiserum and the presence of 50 ml litre?1 of methanol reduced matrix effects of the samples. Under optimized conditions, the ELISA detected flucythrinate spiked in water, soil, and extracts of apple and tea samples down to 10 mg litre?1, 0.2 mg litre?1, 0.3 mg litre?1 and 0.3 mg litre?1, respectively. The mean recovery and CV ranged from 91% to 120% and from 5% to 12%, respectively. The ELISA results in apple samples correlated well with those from LC–MS analysis (r2 = 0.99, n = 12). © 2001 Society of Chemical Industry  相似文献

The content of the herbicides atrazine and hexazinone was measured in drainage water from seven to ten-year-old plantations grown with Abies nordmanniana (Steven) Spach on two clayey soils in Denmark. The concentrations of atrazine varied between 0.06 and 7.79 μg litre?1. The concentrations of hexazinone were different at the two locations, ranging from 0.07 to 2.09 μg litre?1 at Bremersvold and from 3.47 to 42.66 μg litre?1 at Koege. Metabolites of both herbicides were identified.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: The parasitoid Trichogramma ostriniae (Pang and Chen) is a major natural enemy of many lepidopterans, but only a few studies have been conducted on the compatibility of biological and chemical controls. In this study, the selectivity of 30 insecticides to T. ostriniae adults was evaluated. RESULTS: Among the seven classes of chemicals tested, organophosphates and carbamates had the highest intrinsic toxicity to the wasp, with LC50 values ranging from 0.032 (0.029–0.038) to 2.38 (1.91–3.15) mg AI L?1. They are followed by phenylpyrazoles, avermectins, neonicotinoids and pyrethroids, which induce variable toxicity responses, with LC50 values ranging from 0.14 (0.11–0.21) to 56.67 (48.94–67.24) mg AI L?1, from 2.57 (1.85–4.28) to 4.48 (3.34–6.83) mg AI L?1, from 2.48 (1.80–4.03) to 503.6 (457.6–557.5) mg AI L?1 and from 5.44 (3.95–8.84) to 104.2 (92.48–119.7) mg AI L?1 respectively. The insect growth regulators (IGRs) exhibited least toxicity to the parasitoid. CONCLUSION: Risk quotient analysis classifies neonicotinoids, avermectins, pyrethroids, IGRs and phenylpyrazoles (with the exception of butane‐fipronil and fipronil) as safe agents to the parasitoid, but categorises organophosphates and carbamates as slightly to moderately toxic or dangerous to T. ostriniae.

The ability of ‘waste’ Fe(III)/Cr(III) hydroxide to adsorb paraquat has been investigated. Effects of contact time, initial concentration and pH, adsorption capacity and desorption have been studied. Adsorption followed a first-order expression. The adsorption rate constant decreased from 1–84 to 0–50 min?1 with the increase of paraquat concentration from 10 to 40 mg litre?1. Adsorption obeyed the Freundlich isotherm and the K1 value was found to be 0.1995. A maximum removal of 93% was attained at pH 1204. Desorption with water occurred to the extent of 39% indicating that physical sorption was partly responsible in the adsorption process.  相似文献

The effects of the fungicides benomyl, thiophanate-methyl and triadimefon on the chrysomelid beetle Gastrophysa polygoni were investigated in the laboratory. Contact with a suspension of benomyl (1.5 g a. i. litre?1 did not affect the hatchability of the eggs. Larvae were reared on shoots of knotgrass (Polygonum aviculare) that had been sprayed with suspensions of benomyl, ranging in concentration from 0.1 to 5.0 g a. i. litre?1. The mortality to the adult stage, of larvae reared on shoots treated with concentrations of benomyl of 0.5 g a. i. litre?1 and above, was significantly higher than that of control larvae. At concentrations of 2.0 g a. i. litre?1 and above, no larvae survived to the adult stage. The LD50 was 0.78 g a. i. benomyl litre?1. The LT50 values at concentrations of 1.0, 2.0 and 5.0 g a. i. benomyl litre?1 were 22.6, 12.6 and 5.3 days, respectively. The mean weights of adults bred from larvae that had been reared on shoots treated with benomyl (0.5 and 1.0 g a. i. litre?1) were significantly less than those of adults bred from control larvae. The mortality of larvae, reared on shoots of P. aviculare treated with triadimefon (0.5 g a. i. litre?1) or thiophanate-methyl (1.0 g a. i. litre?1), was also significantly higher than that of control larvae. Females kept on plants of P. aviculare treated with benomyl (1.5 g a. i. litre?1) laid similar numbers of eggs to those kept on untreated plants, and the hatchability of the eggs was not affected.  相似文献

The chitin synthesis inhibitor diflubenzuron, applied as a wettable powder spray to woven polypropylene at 100–500 mg m?2, was effective against Dermestes maculatus De Geer for at least 12 weeks. D. maculatus was unable to develop on ox hide dipped in a suspension of diflubenzuron (125 mg litre?1), or on fishmeal dusted at 1–10 mg of active ingredient kg?1. Diflubenzuron prevented the development of infestations of Callosobruchus maculatus (L.) on peas and of Acanthoscelides obtectus (Say) on beans dusted at 1–5 mg kg?1. The compound was also very effective against early instar larvae of Trogoderma granarium Everts on wheat. The persistence and activity of diflubenzuron at low dosage rates against D. maculatus appear to justify larger scale trials.  相似文献

Pyriproxyfen, a novel juvenile hormone mimic, is a potent suppressor of embryogenesis and adult formation of the sweetpotato whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius), and the greenhouse whitefly, Trialeurodes vaporariorum (Westwood). Dipping of cotton or tomato seedlings infested with 0 to 1-day-old eggs in 0.1 mg litre?1 resulted in over 90% suppression of egg hatch of both B. tabaci and T. vaporariorum. Older eggs were affected to a lesser extent. Exposure of whitefly females to cotton or tomato seedlings treated with pyriproxyfen resulted in oviposition of non-viable eggs. The LC90 values for egg viability of B. tabaci and T. vaporariorum exposed to treated plants were 0.05 and 0.2 mg litre?1, respectively. Treatment of whitefly larvae with 0.04–5 mg litre?1 resulted in normal development until the pupal stage; however, adult emergence was totally suppressed. Second instars of B. tabaci exposed to 5 mg litre?1 pyriproxyfen, excreted honeydew at a level similar to the control level until the fourth instar (pupation), after which a strong reduction was observed. Inhibition of egg-hatch on the lower surface of cotton leaves was observed when their upper surface was treated with 1–25 mg litre?1, indicating a pronounced translaminar effect. These findings indicate that pyriproxyfen is an efficient control agent of both B. tabaci and T. vaporariorum. The compound has been used successfully for controlling whiteflies in Israeli cotton fields since 1991. Adults of B. tabaci collected from a rose greenhouse and from adjacent cotton fields were monitored during 1991–1993 for their susceptibility to pyriproxyfen. A high level of resistance was recorded in whiteflies collected from a greenhouse after three successive applications of pyriproxyfen. Based on LC50 values, the resistance ratio for egg-hatch suppression was 554-fold and, for adult emergence failure, 10-fold. However, a single treatment of pyriproxyfen in cotton fields during the summer season (according to an insecticide resistance management (IRM) strategy) did not alter appreciably the susceptibility of B. tabaci to this compound. In order to prevent development of resistance, an attempt should be made to restrict its use to one treatment per crop season applied during the peak activity of the pest. Pyriproxyfen can be alternated with other novel compounds such as buprofezin and diafenthiuron for controlling whiteflies in cotton, vegetables and ornamentals as part of integrated pest management (IPM) and IRM strategies. In pyriproxyfen- or buprofezin-resistant strains of B. tabaci or T. vaporariorum, no appreciable cross-resistance was observed among pyriproxyfen, buprofezin and diafenthiuron.  相似文献

Pyriproxyfen was effective against susceptible Bemisia tabaci eggs at a LC50 of 0.003 mg litre−1 and against nymphs at 0.02 mg litre−1. In comparison, eggs of a laboratory selected, pyriproxyfen-resistant B tabaci strain, originating in an Israeli greenhouse, exhibited 6500-fold resistance and nymphs exhibited 1100-fold resistance. Eggs and nymphs of a strain from an Israeli sunflower field exhibited 450 and 210-fold resistance in comparison to the susceptible standard. Fenoxycarb was generally less effective than pyriproxyfen against B tabaci eggs and nymphs but was unaffected by pyriproxyfen resistance. Piperonyl butoxide (PB) was antagonistic to pyriproxyfen, and this increased with increasing pyriproxyfen resistance. PB had no effect on the toxicity of fenoxycarb. Collectively, these data imply that the modes of action of pyriproxyfen and fenoxycarb are distinct, despite the structural similarities of these molecules. Possible reasons for the antagonism of PB against pyriproxyfen are discussed. © 1999 Society of Chemical Industry  相似文献

Several ethyl 2,3-dihydro-3-oxoisothiazolo[5,4-b]pyridine-2-alkanoate derivatives were synthesized as herbicides. Only 5-methyl derivatives inhibited both hypocotyl and root growth in the lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) seedling test at 100 mg litre-1. Only ethyl propionate and valerate derivatives showed significant inhibition at 0·1 mg litre-1, whereas ethyl acetate or butyrate derivatives were inactive. Contrary to unoxidized derivatives, the inhibitory effect of 1-oxide and 1,1-dioxide derivatives was strongly dependent on concentration; ethyl 2,3-dihydro-5-methyl-3-oxoisothiazolo[5,4-b]pyridine-2-propionate 1,1-dioxide inhibited 100% of germination at 100 mg litre-1 and 45% of lettuce seedling growth at 0·1 mg litre-1. Quantitative structure–inhibition of growth relationship analysis carried out by adaptive least-squares (ALS) method gave a good correlation with small and hydrophobic 5-substituents as well as with odd carbon-chain ethyl alkanoates in position 2. Active compounds did not show auxin-like activity from 0·1 to 100 mg litre-1. © 1997 SCI.  相似文献

The effect of the monooxygenase inhibitor, 1-aminobenzotriazole (ABT) on isoproturon phytotoxicity and metabolism was studied in resistant (R) and susceptible (S) biotypes of Phalaris minor and in wheat (Triticum aestivum). Addition of ABT (2·5, 5 and 10 mg litre-1) to isoproturon (0·25, 0·5, 1, 2 and 4 mg litre-1) in the nutrient solution significantly enhanced the phytotoxicity of isoproturon against the R biotype. Isoproturon at 0·25 mg litre-1 reduced the dry weight (DW) of the S biotype by 77%, whereas the R biotype required 4·0 mg litre-1 for similar reduction. Addition of 10 mg litre-1 of ABT to the 0·25 mg litre-1 isoproturon caused 71 and 82% reduction in DW of R and S biotypes, respectively. Wheat was more sensitive to the mixture of isoproturon and ABT than the R biotype of P. minor. Reduced concentrations of ABT in the mixture from 10 to 2·5 mg litre-1 increased the DW of the R biotype more than that of the S biotype. The R biotype metabolised [14C]isoproturon at a faster rate than the S biotype. ABT (5 mg litre-1) inhibited the degradation of [14C]isoproturon in both biotypes of P. minor and in wheat. In the presence of ABT, about half of the applied [14C]isoproturon remained as parent herbicide in all the three species after two days. The metabolites were similar in the R and S biotypes and wheat as determined by co-chromatography with reference standards and mass spectroscopy (MS). ABT inhibited the appearance of the hydroxy and monomethyl metabolites and their conjugates in all the test plants. These results suggest that the activity of the enzymes responsible for the degradation of isoproturon is greater in the R than in the S biotype of P. minor, resulting in its rapid detoxification. Incorporation of the monooxygenase inhibitor ABT into the nutrient solution greatly inhibited the degradation of [14C]isoproturon in the R biotype and increased its phytotoxicity. Both hydroxylation and N-dealkylation reactions were found to be sensitive to ABT; inhibition of hydroxylation was greater than that of demethylation. Since ABT could not completely suppress isoproturon degradation, it is possible that more than one monooxygenase is involved. © 1998 SCI  相似文献

Phomalactone, 5,6‐dihydro‐5‐hydroxy‐6‐prop‐2‐enyl‐2H‐pyran‐2‐one, produced by the fungus Nigrospora sphaerica, was tested in vitro against nine plant pathogenic fungi, and specifically inhibited the mycelial growth of Phytophthora infestans, with an MIC value of 2.5 mg litre?1. Its inhibitory activities against sporangium and zoospore germination of P infestans were similar to those against Phytophthora capsici. In vivo, at 100 and 500 mg litre?1, it reduced the development of tomato late blight caused by P infestans. © 2001 Society of Chemical Industry  相似文献

Insecticide wastes generated from livestock dipping operations are well suited for biodegradation processes since these wastes are concentrated, contained, and have no other significant toxic components. A field-scale biofilter capable of treating 15000-litre batches of dip waste containing the acaricide coumaphos was used to reduce the coumaphos concentration in two successive 11000-litre batch trials from 2000 mg litre-1 to 10 mg litre-1 in approximately 14 days at 25–29°C. Removal of coumaphos from the biofilter effluent is a function of both physical filtration and biodegradation by the biofilter. However, stoichiometric increases in chloride levels in the effluent as coumaphos concentrations decreased confirmed that coumaphos was being degraded by the biofilter rather than just being filtered out. In subsequent 5500-litre batch experiments, the addition of a vitamin supplement to the biofilter-treated dip resulted in a further decrease in coumaphos concentration to approximately 1 mg litre-1. Results from incubations of two representative Texas soils with biofilter-treated dip spiked with [benzo-U-14C] coumaphos revealed that 32–36% of the spiked [14C] coumaphos was mineralized in the soils after 110 days at 30°C. © 1998 SCI.  相似文献
