“…When eggs of stored-product beetles are exposed on grain treated with hydroprene, adult emergence is reduced and many of the emerged adults exhibit morphological abnormalities (Rup andChopra 1984, Williams andAmos 1974). Morphological effects in adult cockroaches are also commonly associated with exposure of nymphs to IGRs (King and Bennett 1989, King and Bennett 1991, Atkinson et al 1992, Short and Edwards 1992, but there is only one published study on the effects of IGRs on late instar Tribolium larvae (Hoppe 1981).…”

Last instar larvae of the red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum (Herbst), and the confused flour beetle, Tribolium confusum Jacquelin du Val, were either exposed for 8-144 h on concrete treated with 1.9 x 10(-3) mg(AI)/per cm2 hydroprene, or continually exposed on concrete treated with 9.8 x 10(-4) to 1.9 x 10(-3) mg[AI]/per cm2 hydroprene. In both tests, larvae were exposed and held at 27 or 32 degrees C and 40, 57, or 75% RH. When larvae were exposed with no food to hydroprene for different time intervals, then transferred to untreated concrete containing flour, consistent effects were produced only at 144 h. At this exposure interval, the percentage of beetles arrested in the larval stage after 3-4 wk was generally greater at 75% RH compared with 40 and 57% RH, but there were no differences between species or temperature. The percentages of dead adult red flour beetles and live adults with morphological deformities were also greatest at 75% RH, and defects were more prevalent in red flour beetles than in confused flour beetles. When larvae were continually exposed to different concentrations of hydroprene on concrete that contained flour, the percentage of arrested larvae, dead adults, and live adults of both species generally increased with concentration. There were more deleterious effects at 75% RH compared with either 40 or 57% RH, and effects were more pronounced in the red flour beetle compared with the confused flour beetle. In both experiments, temperature effects were variable and inconclusive. Results indicate that continual exposure of last instar red flour beetle and confused flour beetle to hydroprene can limit population development, but exposure intervals of >6 d may be required for maximum effectiveness.

“…The activity of IGRs against the developmental stages certainly results in reduced adult emergence. JH treatment at any stage reduces adult emergence in storedproduct insects (PALLOS et al 1971, LOSCHIAVO 1975, NORDLANDER 1975, OBERLANDER & SILHACEK 1976, AMOS & WILLIAMS1977, KRAMER & MCGREGOR 1979, STOCKEL & EDWARDS 1981, ISHAAYA 1982, MIAN & MULLA 1982, BENEZET 1983, RUP & CHOPRA 1984, ABO-EL-GHER 1992. Methoprene effectively inhibited adult emergence in Sitotroga cerealella OLIVIER, 1789(STOCKEL & EDWARDS 1981 and Alphitobius diaperinus PANZER, 1797(EDWARDS & ABRAHAM 1985.…”

The present investigation reveals the influence of methoprene, an IGR, on the ontogeny, growth duration and adult longevity of the rice moth Corcyra cephalonica. Twenty-five larvae of different instars (1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th) of C. cephalonica were exposed to the juvenile hormone analogue methoprene in order to evaluate its potential effect on larval mortality, pupation, pupal mortality, adult emergence, growth duration and adult longevity. These different instars larvae were treated with 2, 4, 8 and 12 ppm of methoprene in an artificial diet (coarsely ground jowar mixed with 5% yeast powder) where the control received acetone alone. The results reveal significant differences in all the parameters mentioned above as compared to the control.

“…Alternatively, JH levels may be high in the adult,14, 28, 71, 79 and external application of methoprene would not be enough to disrupt the reproductive system. In general, there is no adult mortality due to methoprene application,5, 38 but methoprene or other JHAs have adversely affected the reproductive systems of adults in several other species: Tribolium confusum Jacquelin du Val (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae),15 Lasioderma serricorne (F.) (Coleoptera: Anobiidae),80 Callosobruchus maculatus (F.) (Coleoptera: Bruchidae)81 and Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) (Coleoptera: Bostrychidae) 82…”
