“…The decrease in damage in the insecticide treatment was not sufficient to claim imidacloprid acted as an effective maple leaftier control; however, some function of the insecticide, such as increased elongation of shoot tips versus branching, may be correlated with the lower amounts of maple leaftier damage in the insecticide treatment. Whereas some evidence exists of imidacloprid as a stress-mitigator and growth enhancer, most of the research on the topic has been conducted on row crops (Wallace et al 2000;Thielert 2006;Gonias et al 2008), with limited information on its effects in woody ornamentals (Oliver et al 2010). It is difficult to draw conclusions about imidacloprid and maple leaftier reduction from this single yr of data.…”

“…Hurley & Patel (2003) found that imidacloprid reduced the growth of Eucalyptus nitens Deane & Maiden (Maiden) tree seedlings after a root drench at 2 concentrations by 13 and 8%, respectively. Wallace et al (2000) found that imidacloprid was phytotoxic to cucumbers in the greenhouse and Ebel et al (2000) found it was toxic to tomatoes and cucumbers in the greenhouse. Dewar et al (1997) found that sugar beet seeds in pellets containing higher rates of imidacloprid had a slower germination rate, and the total number of seedlings emerging was reduced, but different cultivars affected the degree of these effects by imidacloprid.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
