“…Compared with behavioral studies, there have been far more investigations of the effect of dusting on survival. Most found no significant differences between the survival rates of dusted groups and undusted controls (Drosophila pseudoobscura Frolova & Astaurov: Crumpacker, 1974; Drosophila simulans Sturtevant: Moth & Barker, 1975;mountain pine beetles: McMullen et al, 1988; corn rootworm beetles: Naranjo, 1990;Oloumi-Sadeghi & Levine, 1990; boll weevils: Reinecke, 1990; spruce budworms: Kipp & Lonergan, 1992; phlebotomine flies: Pardo et al, 1996;trichogrammatid wasps: Garcia-Salazar & Landis, 1997;planthoppers: Cronin, 2003;diamondback moths: Mo et al, 2003;cicadellids: Coviella et al, 2006;psyllids: Nakata, 2008). Additionally, Oloumi-Sadeghi & Levine (1990) determined that dusting adult corn rootworm beetles had no effect on their rates of ovarian development.…”
