Cottage EL, Gunning RV: Buprofezin inhibits acetylcholinesterase activity in B-biotype Bemisia tabaci. J Mol Neurosci. 2006;30(1-2):39-40.
B-biotype Bemisia tabaci is a severe insect pest worldwide in many ornamental, agricultural, and horticultural industries. Control of this insect is hampered by resistance to many acetylcholinesterase (AChE)-inhibiting insecticides, such as organophosphates and carbamates. Consequently, insect growth regulators such as buprofezin, which act by inhibiting chitin synthesis, are being investigated for use against B-biotype B. tabaci in Australia. This study discusses the effects of buprofezin on B. tabaciAChE. |
