“…These compounds have the ability to penetrate the insect's cuticle (Schneiderman, 1972) and have chemosterilant activity in females (Heller et al, 1992) through stomach and contact (Fox, 1990). Several studies have been conducted for evaluating the potential of other insect growth regulators (juvenile hormone analogues and chitin synthesis inhibitors) against different stored-grain insect pests (Elek, 1998a, b;Parween et al, 2001;Abo-Elghar et al, 2004;Arthur et al, 2009Sagheer et al, 2011Sagheer et al, , 2012Yasir et al, 2012Yasir et al, , 2019Trostanetsky et al, 2015;Ali et al, 2016Ali et al, , 2017Ali et al, , 2018Malik et al, 2017;Arthur & Hartzer, 2018).…”

The residual efficacy of methoxyfenozide was assessed by exposing last instar larvae of Oryzaephilus surinamensis (Linnaeus, 1758) (Coleoptera: Silvanidae), Tribolium castaneum Herbst, 1797 (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) and Trogoderma granarium Everts, 1898 (Coleoptera: Dermestidae) to the treated grain commodities (maize, oat, rice and wheat) at concentrations of 1, 2 and 4 mg kg-1 of active ingredient under laboratory conditions.

“…TFM is nowadays used against both stored products pests and disease vectors [38–48], strongly affecting insect reproduction by disruption of oviposition and/or eclosion of eggs laid by treated females. Its ovicidal effect is achieved either by direct application onto eggs [39, 49, 50] or by treatment of insects at any life stage [25, 51–53].…”

We evaluated the efficacy of the growth regulator triflumuron (TFM) in inducing mortality and disrupting both oviposition and egg hatching in Rhodnius prolixus adult females. TFM was administered via feeding, topically or by continuous contact with impregnated surfaces. Feeding resulted in mild biological effects compared with topical and impregnated surfaces. One day after treatment, the highest mortality levels were observed with topical surface and 30 days later both topical and impregnated surfaces induced higher mortalities than feeding. Oral treatment inhibited oviposition even at lower doses, and hatching of eggs deposited by treated females was similarly affected by the three delivery modes. Topical treatment of eggs deposited by nontreated females significantly reduced hatching. However, treatment per contact of eggs oviposited by untreated females did not disrupt eclosion. Additionally, oral treatment increased the number of immature oocytes per female, and topical treatment reduced the mean size of oocytes. TFM also affected carcass chitin content, diuresis, and innate immunity of treated insects. These results suggest that TFM acts as a potent growth inhibitor of R. prolixus adult females and has the potential to be used in integrated vector control programs against hematophagous triatomine species.

“…However, the prohibited oviposition efficiency, in the current study, may be explained as a result of inhibition of ovarian DNA synthesis or the interference of Apitoxin with vitellogenesis in G. mellonella via certain biochemical processes. In addition, Apitoxin might exert a reverse action to those exerted by the ecdysteroids which stimulate the neurosecretory cells to release a myotropic ovulation hormone (Parween et al, 2001).…”

The greater wax moth, Galleria mellonella is an important pest of wax combs of the honey bee in the world. The current investigation aimed to assess the effects of Apitoxin on the most important adult life parameters and reproduction of this pest. The freshly ecdysed 3 rd instar larvae were treated with a series of Apitoxin concentrations (4000, 2000, 1000, 500, 250, 125 ppm) via the artificial diet. The present results can be summarized as follows. The adult emergence was slightly blocked only at the higher three concentration levels. Apitoxin failed to affect both adult survival and morphogenesis. The total longevity was significantly shortened, in a dosedependent course. The ovarian maturation (pre-oviposition) period was prolonged, except the highest one at which this period was slightly shortened, as an odd datum. The reproductive lifetime (oviposition period) was remarkably shortened, in no certain trend. Also, the post-oviposition period was considerably shortened. Apitoxin exerted a diverse action on the reproductive efficiency of adult females since the oviposition rate was enhanced or inhibited, depending on the concentration, but in no certain trend. Both fecundity and fertility had been significantly reduced, in a dose-dependent course. The incubation period was considerably prolonged in a dose-dependent manner.
