Effectiveness of twelve insecticides applied topically to diapausing larvae of the codling moth, Cydia pomonella L.
Pest Management Science 60 (3), 305-308
Abstract: Dose-mortality curves were established for 12 insecticides administered by topical application to diapausing larvae from a susceptible codling moth strain. Toxicity varied greatly among the insecticides tested. LC₅₀ values ranged from 0.1 mg kg^-1 for fenoxycarb to over 2800 mg kg^-1 for diflubenzuron and indoxacarb. Discriminating dose levels were determined from dose-mortality reference curves for the detection of resistance in field-collected diapausing larvae.
