This book contains a wealth of information covering pesticide chemistry,
biochemical modes of action, biological activity and the theory of pesticide
application in management programs. Emphasis is placed on novel biological
insecticides that block certain stages in the development of pest insects.
Special attention is given to insecticides with selective properties and their
role in integrated pest management programs. Insecticide resistance management
strategies are also discussed. The data and concepts presented are relevant to
those interested in establishing new technologies and developing novel groups
of compounds that will determine future agricultural practices. The contents
include:
- Insecticides with novel modes of action: an overview.
- Ecdysone Agonists.
- Pymetrozine.
- Imidacloprid.
- Buprofezin.
- New retrospectives on the mode of action of benzoylphenyl urea
insecticides.
- Bacillus thuringiensis: use and resistance management.
- Pyrrole insecticides.
- Avermectins.
- Efficacy of phyto-oils as contact insecticides and fumigants for the
control of stored-product insects.
- Novel type insecticides: specificity and effects on non-target
organisms.
- Management of resistance to novel insecticides
