Reversion of resistance to the organotin (OT) acaricide
cyhexatin was documented for the twospotted spider mite,
Tetranychus urticae (Koch), by laboratory isolation of a
field resistant colony. After 22 generations of no
selection the colony reverted back to susceptible.
Studies were conducted in 1985 and 1986 on susceptible
and resistant...
Genetics, gene flow, and distribution of pesticide
resistance traits were examined for organophosphate (OP)
resistance in three beneficial phytoseiid mites. Levels
and genetics of OP resistance in Amblyseius andersoni
were examined first. Laboratory strains from Italy and
Oregon, USA, were compared in susceptibility to
insecticides used in western Oregon fruit...
Computer decision aids can help integrate and apply diverse sources of information and expertise to problems of integrated pest management (IPM) in agriculture and forestry. AppleMgr combines a rule-based expert system with databases and spreadsheets in a prototype decision aid intended to be expanded and modified for use by extension...
