Efforts have been made during the past three decades to develop insecticides with selective properties that act specifically on biochemical sites present in a particular insect group, but whose properties differ from those present in mammals. This approach has led to the discovery of compounds that affect the hormonal regulation of molting and developmental processes in insects such as ecdysone agonists,...
The use of selective insecticides could improve conservation of natural enemies and therefore contribute to the success of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs. In this study, the toxicity of one selective insecticide, Spinosad to common green lacewing Chrysoperla carnea Stephens was evaluated. Several stages of C. carnea larvae were exposed to Spinosad under laboratory conditions. The used quantities...
Organic crop production must obey strict regulations. In recent years, it is promoted in Poland by government financial support which has been reflected in Rural Areas Development Plans for 2004–2006 and 2007–2013. Thanks to putting into effect the agricultural and environmental package „Organic production”, Polish farmers can apply for EU surcharges, which are targeted at those who by implementation...
A new group of insecticides belonging to the category of bio-pesticides, namely – spinosyns, is discussed. The spinosyns are the products of bacterial fermentation by microorganisms Saccharopolyspora spinosa (Actinomycetes group) in a nutrient media. The chemical structures of spinosyns, also those developed by the semi-synthetic and biochemical modifications, as well as their insecticidal properties...
