Susceptibility of boll weevil to ready-to-use insecticide mixtures

Abstract: Boll weevil is the major cotton pest in Brazil, and insecticides are widely recommended against it. We determined the susceptibility of boll weevil to insecticides either in single or in mixture ready-to-use formulations, which are registered to spray cotton fields under the hypothesis that mixtures are more toxic to the target pest. Concentration-mortality curves were determined to adult species, simultaneously through dried residues and ingestion. Ten insecticide formulations were studied with five in mixtur… Show more

“…However, a 5 ng/mL chlorfenapyr mixture and 500 ng/mL cypermethrin gave a slight synergistic effect when tested on cypermethrin-resistant mosquitoes [ 48 ]. Lambda-cyhalothrin with chlorantraniliprole resulted in a synergic effect against boll weevil adults [ 56 ].…”

“…Tank mixing is the preparation of agrochemicals and similar products in a tank or containers shortly before application. In aviation spray, it is more and more popular for farmers to mix a variety of pesticide formulations or leaf fertilizers to spray at the same time, which can reduce the frequency of application, reduce spraying loss, save labor costs, lead to lower soil compaction, meanwhile, improve prevention efficacy, and delay drug resistance. Moreover, this practice was legislated in Brazil recently. However, because of the lack of training and available compatibility agent, the instability of the aviation pesticide tank mixture occurs from time to time, seriously affecting the effect of pesticide application .…”
