Permethrin induces histological and cytological changes in the midgut of the pr...
Martínez, Luis Carlos; Neves, Guilherme da Silva; Gonçalves, Wagner Gonzaga; Zanuncio, José Cola; Bozdoğan, Hakan; Serrão, José EduardoInsecticides used in the agriculture and forestry have side effects on non-target organisms used as natural enemies. This study evaluated the histopathology and cytotoxicity of permethrin on the midgut of the non-target predatory bug, Podisus nigrispinus (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) used in the biological control of pest insects. The toxicity and survival of this insect were determined using six concentrations o...
Exposure to spinosad induces histopathological and cytotoxic effects on the sal...
Santos-Junior, Valdeir Celestino dos; Martínez, Luis Carlos; Plata-Rueda, Angelica; Zanuncio, José Cola; Serrão, José Eduardo; Bozdoğan, HakanIn integrated pest management systems, biological and chemical controls must be compatible. The insecticide spinosad affects some non-target insects and might compromise their fitness. The objective of this study was to evaluate the histopathological and cytotoxic effects of spinosad on the salivary complex of the predatory bug Podisus nigrispinus (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae). Spinosad toxicity and insect surviv...
Toxicity and cytotoxicity of the insecticide imidacloprid in the midgut of the ...
Martínez, Luis Carlos; Plata-Rueda, Angelica; Gonçalves, Wagner Gonzaga; Freire, André Filipe Penha Aires; Zanuncio, José Cola; Bozdoğan, HakanThe selectivity of insecticides on natural enemies in pest control are an important strategy for Integrated Pest Management. However, insecticides can have side effects on non-target organisms such as natural enemies. This study evaluated the histological and cytological changes mediated by the sublethal concentration of the imidacloprid insecticide on the midgut of non-target predator Podisus nigrispinus (Hete...
