Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Dienochlor treatment of leaves nearly stopped oviposition by Mexican bean beetle on soybeans.
- Mechanism The reduced oviposition was caused by interference with oogenesis, as shown by dissection of affected beetles.
- Intervention effect Survival of Mexican bean beetle larvae and adults was normal on dienochlor-treated pinto beans.
- Intervention effect Survival of Mexican bean beetle larvae and adults was low on dienochlor-treated soybeans.
- Intervention effect Fecundity and survival of adult Colorado potato beetle females on potatoes were not affected by the miticide, even at four times the recommended rate.
- Mechanism The authors consider the results consistent with a mode of action involving, in part, interference with nutrient use.
