Therefore, we reported the multigenerational effect commonly used insecticide, imidacloprid, functional response widely acclaimed egg parasitoid, Trichogramma chilonis Ishii, to different densities host Corcyra cephalonica Stainton eggs. study investigated outcomes median lethal concentration (LC50 ) sublethal concentrations (LC5 , LC30 ), along treatments for five continuous generations (F1 F5 ).The results showed that generation both F1 LC50 all had Type II response.

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) seeks to combine multiple management strategies for optimal pest control. One method that is successfully employed in IPM the use of beneficial organisms. However, severe circumstances when insects exceed threshold limits, insecticides may still need be implemented. Thus, understanding effects on biocontrol agents, such as parasitoid wasps, paramount ensure sustainable agroecosystems. Sublethal bioinsecticide spinosyn, a mixture bacterial Saccharopolyspora spinosa (Mertz and Yao) fermentation products spinosyn A D, eggs Trichoplusia ni (Hübner), cruciferous crop pest, its egg Trichogramma brassicae (Bezdenko) was investigated.

Imidacloprid is one of the most widely used neonicotinoid insecticides to control sap-sucking insect pests, including Aphis gossypii. The intensive application chemical A. gossypii led development resistance against several insecticides, imidacloprid. Therefore, it crucial understand association between imidacloprid and fitness limit spread resistant population under field contexts. In this study, we age-stage, two-sex life table method comprehensively investigate (ImR) susceptible strains (SS) melon aphids. Results showed that ImR aphids have prolonged developmental stages decreased longevity, fecundity, reproductive days. key demographic parameters (r, λ, R0) were significantly reduced in strain compared SS Additionally, molecular mechanism for costs was investigated by comparing expression profile juvenile hormone-binding protein (JHBP), hormone epoxide hydrolase (JHEH), acid O-methyltransferase (JHAMT), Vitellogenin (Vg), ecdysone receptor (EcR), ultraspiracle (USP) supposed be associated with reproduction insects. results RT-qPCR EcR, JHBP, JHAMT, JHEH, Vg genes downregulated, while USP statistically same strain.

The rice moth, Corcyra cephalonica (Stainton) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) is a pest of stored grains and widely used as factitious host during the mass rearing several natural enemies crop pests. Hormesis well-documented in insects, to some extent pests.We report transgenerational stimulatory effects fumigant, phosphine. study reports consequences sublethal, low lethal median concentrations (LC5 , LC25 LC50 ) untreated control for two sequential generations species (G1 G2 ). In this study, we investigated life-history traits, nutrient reserves (protein, lipid carbohydrate) larval gut microbiome (using 16 s rRNA V3-V4 metagenomics sequencing) C. cephalonica. Stimulatory were observed various biological traits cephalonica, notably adult longevity, emergence increased egg hatchability when exposed LC5 total protein, carbohydrate contents also found be significantly by both generations. microbial diversity treated was higher different from rest treatments.
