Moreover, insect control is accomplished without phytotoxicity. The U.S. label includes more than 50 crops. Each gallon of Asana® XL is formulated with approximately 2 quarts of cottonseed oil. Research on this formulation has demonstrated that the addition of cottonseed oil extends residual activity and makes Asana® XL more resistant to washoff. For the grower, these attributes can contribute to improved financial returns. In addition, the low dosage rates and longer spray intervals minimize the amount of chemical introduced into the environment. Asana® XL is an environmentally sound insecticide. It is a synthetic version of pyrethrin, a naturally occurring insecticide derived from chrysanthemums. Formulation Asana® XL insecticide is formulated as an emulsifiable concentrate (EC) containing 0.66 pound of active ingredient (esfenvalerate) per gallon. Active ingredient — esfenvalerate (by weight): 8.4 percent Inert ingredients (by weight): 91.6 percent Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Reg. No. 352-515 1 Pyrethroid Chemistry The insecticidal properties of pyrethrins, which are derived from the flowers of Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium and several other members of the same genus, have been known for more than 100 years. Figure 1 shows the chemical structure of a major component in natural pyrethrins. FIGURE 1: NATURAL PYRETHRIN Pyrethrins boast several distinctions — low mammalian toxicity, high toxicity to a broad spectrum of insects at very low dosages and minor environmental impact. Commercial uses range from household to industrial insect control. Unfortunately, pyrethrins are costly and therefore are frequently formulated with a synergist (e.g., piperonyl butoxide) to reduce application rates. The rapid pho- todegradation of pyrethrins further limits their agricultural use. However, the desir- able properties of natural pyrethrins encouraged scientists to synthesize economi- cal, sunlight-stable, chemically related compounds (pyrethroids) that would exhibit similarly favorable low mammalian toxicity and high insecticidal activity. After the initial success of allethrin in 1949, scientists strived to improve pyrethroid chemistry. Worldwide efforts culminated in the commercial development of several compounds for agricultural use, including permethrin, cypermethrin, deltamethrin, tralomethrin and fenvalerate. Further investigation of fenvalerate chemistry led to the identification of the most insecticidally active isomer that would improve desired attributes. These attributes included much lower use rates for broader crop applications, no crop injury to sensi- tive crops, sunlight stability and effectiveness over wide temperature variations. This isomer, called esfenvalerate, is the insecticidal ingredient of DuPont™ Asana® XL. In today’s highly competitive pyrethroid market, some manufacturers promote their product as a “new generation” pyrethroid. This is a marketing tool that is used to make their product appear newer and better. Most of the pyrethroids currently on the market in the United States were patented before 1981 — more than 20 years ago!

Fausti 10.1126/sciadv.1500558 Recent shifts in agricultural practices have resulted in altered pesticide use patterns, land use intensification, and land- scape simplification, all of which threaten biodiversity in and near farms. Pests are major challenges to food security, and responses to pests can represent unintended socioeconomic and environmental costs. Characteristics of the ec- ological community influence pest populations, but the nature of these interactions remains poorly understood within realistic community complexities and on operating farms. We examine how species diversity and the topology of linkages in species’ abundances affect pest abundance on maize farms across the Northern Great Plains.

  • Carpenter Ants and Control in Homes Page 1 of 6
    Carpenter Ants and Control in Homes Page 1 of 6 Carpenter Ants and Control in Homes Fact Sheet No. 31 Revised May 2000 Dr. Jay B Karren, Extension Entomologist Alan H. Roe, Insect Diagnostician Introduction Carpenter ants are members of the insect order Hymenoptera, which includes bees, wasps, sawflies, and other ants. Carpenter ants can be occasional pests in the home and are noted particularly for the damage they can cause when nesting in wood. In Utah they are more of a nuisance rather than a major structural pest. Carpenter ants, along with a number of other ant species, utilize cavities in wood, particularly stumps and logs in decayed condition, as nesting sites. They are most abundant in forests and can be easily found under loose bark of dead trees, stumps, or fallen logs. Homeowners may bring them into their homes when they transport infested logs from forests to use as firewood. Description Carpenter ants include species that are among the largest ants found in the United States. They are social insects with a complex and well-defined caste system. The worker ants are sterile females and may occur in different sizes (majors and minors). Members of the reproductive caste (fertile males and females) are usually winged prior to mating. All ants develop from eggs deposited by a fertilized female (queen). The eggs hatch into grub-like larvae (immatures) which are fed and cared for by the workers. When fully grown, the larvae spin a cocoon and enter the pupal stage. The pupal stage is a period of transformation from the larva to adult.

(Received 27 December 2000; accepted 16 March 2001) SUMMARY Cell lines from selected lepidopteran species were established for the overall purpose of use in baculovirus production. A total of 36 new cell lines from 10 lepidopteran species were generated, including cell lines from a pyralid, the European corn borer, Ostrinia nubilalis, a plutellid, the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella, as well as eight noctuids: the black cutworm, Agrotis ipsilon, the celery looper, Anagrapha falcifera, the velvetbean caterpillar, Anticarsia gemmatalis, the corn earworm, Helicoverpa zea, the tobacco budworm, Heliothis virescens, the beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua, the fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda, and the cabbage looper, Trichoplusia ni. Tissues used for cell line establishment included fat bodies, ovaries, testes, or whole embryos/larvae/pupae. All the cell lines were subcultured numerous times, characterized by isoenzyme analysis and/or deoxyribonucleic acid ampli®cation ®ngerprinting using polymerase chain reaction, and stored in liquid nitrogen.
