| 1. | And, more important, how common are resistance genes in target insect populations?
|
| 2. | Aquatic crustaceans and immature, non-target insects that undergo stages of molting are often sensitive to this pesticide.
|
| 3. | As a result, the target insects escaped the relentless exposure that leads to the emergence of resistant populations.
|
| 4. | This illustrates the importance of introducing insect parasitoids and diseases that affect only the target insect, he said.
|
| 5. | One of these toxins has been shown to form pores in the plasma membrane of the target insect's cells.
|
| 6. | The phosphorothioate P = S bond is converted to the toxic P = O bond in the target insect.
|
| 7. | They create resistance in the target insect, and kill off all the beneficial insects that would control the pest for you.
|
| 8. | Bt corn ( maize ) can however adversely affect non-target insects closely related to the target pest, as with the monarch butterfly.
|
| 9. | Coated onto beet seed, for example, it could be applied to soils where maggot-killing chemicals can harm non-target insects, or endanger groundwater.
|
| 10. | Not only does it mean that people do not have to eat plants that produce insecticidal toxins, but only target insects will be affected, he says.
