Other claims from this paper (11)

Intervention effect Neonicotinoid seed treatments increased wheat stand protection and provided excellent protection
Mechanism Neonicotinoid stand protection is likely due to prolonged wireworm intoxication
Intervention effect Tefluthrin increased crop protection and provided excellent protection
Intervention effect Tefluthrin did not significantly reduce wireworm populations
Mechanism Tefluthrin stand establishment is suggested to be due to repulsion and short term morbidity events
Intervention effect Fipronil increased crop protection and provided excellent protection
Intervention effect Fipronil left larger and neonate wireworm populations undetectable the following spring
Intervention effect Lindane reduced wireworm feeding
Intervention effect Lindane was phytotoxic to wheat in 2 of 3 years
Intervention effect Lindane was the most consistent seed treatment, after fipronil, in reducing larger and neonate wireworm populations
Recommendation Stand and yield protection by wheat seed treatments cannot automatically be equated with wireworm population mortality
