[The effects of plant allelochemicals on the insecticide tolerance in cotton bollworm Helicoverpa armigera Hübner]
Acta Entomologica Sinica 41 (Suppl.), S111-S116
Abstract: The induction of plant allelochemicals on the cotton bollworm tolerance to insecticides was investigated using the method of mixture of plant allelochemicals and artificial diets. The insecticide tolerance of F₁, F₂ or F₃ generation population of cotton bollworms fed on the artificial diet containing rutin was stronger than that of the population fed on only artificial diet, while the susceptibility of F₄ generation population to insecticides was almost the same with that of the artificial diet-fed population. The susceptibilities of the quercetinfed F₁ and F₂ and the 2-tridecanone-fed F₁ generation populations to methyl parathion reduced significantly compared with the artificial diet-fed population. However, there was no difference of susceptibility to methomyl and deltamethrin between the quercetin- or 2-tridecanone-fed population and the artificial diet-fed population.
