“…Tolerance to radiation is known to vary between different developmental stages of an insect and between insect taxa (Koo et al, 2011;Follett and Snook, 2012;Osouli et al, 2013). It is thus important to determine the tolerance to radiation for each developmental stage of the target insects and to establish an effective radiation dose for controlling the pests.…”

Conventional agriculture techniques applied in the latest decades have had undesired consequences on the environmental sustainability, carried out to the soil erosion, the degradation of the ecological system, changing the balance between beneficial and harmful pests, and contamination of soil, water, and agricultural products by heavy metals and pesticides. Thus, in organic agriculture, using synthetic chemicals for pest control is prohibited, assigning to the diversity a major role. The study provides to the reader many important practical data, judiciously documented, which are useful for the researchers and farmers from the world. Pest control in organic agriculture can be obtained through prevention and curative measure, but modern agriculture must be focused on the prevention.

“…According to the results of a previous study, ionizing radiation treatment causes abnormal development and reproduction rather than an immediate insecticidal effect, leading to infertility [9]. Ionizing radiation has a great advantage as a quarantine treatment method because it has a shorter processing time than fumigation treatment and does not leave behind any residues [10].…”

The objective of our study was to compare the effects of electron beam irradiation on the development and reproduction of Tetranychus urticae strains that were susceptible or resistant to acequinocyl, bifenazate, and etoxazole. Electron beam irradiation (50–400 Gy) was applied to T. urticae eggs, nymphs, and adults, after which the hatching rate, the emergence rate, longevity, and fecundity were analyzed. Eggs of all the T. urticae strains were irradiated with 150 Gy, and none of them hatched. When protonymphs were irradiated with 300 Gy, oviposition and thus F1 hatchability in newly emerged adults were completely suppressed. The F1 hatching rate of irradiated adults began to markedly decrease with a dose of 200 Gy, and all strains experienced 100% inhibition at a dose of 400 Gy. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) showed substantial reductions in the levels of a 50 kDa protein in the susceptible and three resistant strains of T. urticae after irradiation with 400 Gy. These results indicate that a dose of 400 Gy was required to inhibit the normal development and reproduction of T. urticae, and susceptible and acaricide-resistant strains of T. urticae had identical radiosensitivities.
