- Abstract:
- ... The phaseout of methyl bromide and the ban on, or withdrawal of, other toxic soil fumigants and non-fumigant nematicides belonging to the organophosphate and carbamate groups are leading to changes in nematode-control strategies. Sustainable nematode-control methods are available and preferred, but not always effective enough, especially for cash crops in intensive agriculture. A few non-fumigant ...

- Abstract:
- ... The susceptibility of Lasioderma serricorne to phosphine (PH₃), ethyl formate (EF) and their combination (PH₃ + EF) was evaluated in this study. Eggs, larvae, pupae and adults were subjected to treatment with fumigants to determine the 90% lethal concentration time (LCt₉₀) values. Treatment with PH₃ for 20 h resulted in LCt₉₀ values of 1.15, 1.39, 14.97 and 1.78 mg h/L while treatment with EF resu ...

In the midst of the common bed bug (Cimex lectularius L.) outbreak, claims were made that ozone gas was effective for their control. This study was conducted to determine baseline ozone concentrations and exposure times required for the control of ...

Red imported fire ants, Solenopsis invicta Buren (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), which are among the most harmful alien ants, were first detected in Japan in a shipping container from China in May 2017, and continue to enter Japan via this trade pathway. Fumigation is one of the most effective ways to eliminate S. invicta from goods transported in containers. The present study is the first to evaluate ...

Some populations contain beetles with a ‘strong resistance’ phenotype. Recent work found the LC₅₀ values for two strong‐resistant populations recently studied in North America, Belle Glade and Minneapolis were 100‐ and 595‐fold higher, respectively, compared to LC₅₀ o ...

Our knowledge about the behavioral differences between phosphine-resistant and -susceptible stored product pest populations is limited. This study evaluated differences in mobility and behavior of populations of two major stored product insects, Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) and Rhyz ...

However, simultaneous analysis of traces of fumigant residues is often unreported because analysis methods are not readily available to measure them at low concentrations. In this study, typical solvent extraction methods were compared with headspace solid‐phase microextraction methods ...

However, irradiating insects in modified atmospheres with very low oxygen (<1 kPa O₂) has repeatedly been shown to increase radioprotective response. Thus, there is a concern that modified atmosphere packaging could reduce the efficacy of phytosanitary irra ...

Along with EF, methyl salicylate (MS) is also naturally occurring, and both are generally regarded as safe fumigants for their higher threshold limit values (TLV) and residual status below minimum residue limit (MRL). Sub-lethal doses of EF and MS were evaluated to determine if there was a synergistic effect ...
