“…The present results indicates that the lethal dose for irradiating immature stages with FNI was varied with different stages, irradiating eggs at 192 Gy prevented the egg hatching, while, 256 Gy prevented the pupation in the case of irradiating the full grown larvae; however, irradiating full grown pupae with 192 Gy prevented adult emergence. These data of lethality are different from those recorded by other researches when gamma irradiation applied on P. interpunctella, the gamma irradiation dose 450 Gy was prevented the egg hatch of P. interpunctella (Aye et al, 2008;Ozyardimciz, Cetinkaya, Denli, Ic, & Alabay, 2006), while 650 Gy prevented the irradiated larvae to reach pupae (Abbas et al, 2011). The present results coincide with the results of Saeed, Kwon, and Kausar (2006) who noticed that the 500 Gy caused 100% mortality in the both pupae and adults of P. interpunctella, while the larvae were more resistant to the same dose of gamma irradiation.…”

Ionizing radiation is considered a promising treatment for stored product pest management. The dose levels 0, 64, 128, 192, and 256 Gy of Fast Neutron Irradiation (FNI) were tested to determine the lethal dose for preventing the reproduction of Plodia interpunctella. The dose needed to induce sterility in both sexes of adult moths is also evaluated. The results of immature stages irradiation demonstrated that the developmental periods and adult longevity were significantly shorter than the control treatments. Moreover, the reductions of fecundity, fertility, and growth rate were based on the dose of FNI, insect sex, and sage. The results revealed that inherited sterility in F 1 generation was more prevalent in irradiated male pupae than irradiated female pupae and also full grown larvae. The results indicated that the 256 Gy was prevented the development of all immature, thus we could considered it as a lethal dose that use in disinfestation treatment. While, full grown pupae irradiation with 128 Gy was an effective dose that induce adequate sterility of Plodia interpunctella that can use in the sterile insect technique program.

“…This is probably because of P. interpunctella eggs more resistive to gamma irradiation than those of E. cautella (Ozyardimci et al, 2006). In addition, P. interpunctella hatching eggs was almost entirely stopped by irradiation at 0.5 kGy and higher doses (Aye et al, 2008), as well as when 1 to 2 days old eggs were irradiated, egg viability, pupation and adult emergence decreased with radiation doses increase. Also before, it was found that when one-to three-day-old eggs of P. interpunctella were exposed to 350 Gy, no eggs hatched (Ayvaz et al, 2008).…”

The effect of gamma irradiation on the different developmental stages of the Plodia interpunctella was studied. Eggs less than 24 hr. old, larvae 2 week-old and fully grown pupae were irradiated with 60, 80 and 100 Gy. Hatchability drastically decreased in the treatments compared with control, the incubation period slightly increased by increasing the radiation dose from 60 to 100 Gy. About seven percent of treated eggs were pupated but did not emerge to adult. While, increasing dose to 80 Gy caused death for all individuals. Larval and pupal duration prolonged by increasing the dosage. In general, irradiation reduced the life span of the resulting adults. Sex ratio seemed to be affected in favor of males at larvae. Fully grown pupae showed the same trend. However, sex ratio shifted in favor of females. Malformed adults increased by dose increasing. It might be summarized that the susceptibility of P. interpunctella was radiation-dose dependent.

“…One of which is gamma radiation. Irradiation with gamma rays has gained an excellent reputation in stored-product pest management (Aldryhim & Adam, 1999;Arthur, 2004;Aye et al, 2008;Ayvaz & Tunçbilek, 2006;Beetle & du Val, 2002;Follett et al, 2013;Ignatowicz, 2004;Kirkpatrick et al, 1973;Zolfagharieh, 2004). For instance, treating infested wheat grain with immature stages of R. dominica with 250 Gy of gamma-ray reduced the rate of adult emergence by 54% compared with the untreated insects (Kirkpatrick et al, 1973).…”

Phosphine toxicity in Caenorhabditis elegans: synergy and cross-resistance with other pest control treatments, including gamma radiation

Hydrogen phosphide (PH3), also known as phosphine, is an ideal fumigant to control insect pest infestation of stored grain, as it is inexpensive, easy to use and leaves little or no chemical residue. As no other general use fumigant is available, phosphine is used to protect 80% of the Australian grain harvest, with the remainder consisting primarily of animal feed and seed grain for planting. Heavy reliance on phosphine has resulted in the development of resistance among insect pests of stored products. In this project, the model organism, Caenorhabditis elegans, was utilized for exploring the mechanisms of phosphine toxicity and interaction with other treatments including gamma radiation as well as testing for synergistic actions between these treatments and phosphine. By looking into the effect of oxygen, I found that hyperoxia synergistically enhances the toxicity of phosphine against wild type C. elegans at 15, 20 or 25 °C, but it only marginally increases the effectiveness of phosphine against phosphine-resistant animals at 20 °C. The sub-lethal concentration of phosphine (70 ppm) with 80% oxygen under 15, 20 and 25 °C gave 60%, 96%, and 99% mortality respectively, in the wild type nematodes. Interestingly, the nematodes of both strains consume significantly more oxygen at 20 °C comparing to the other temperatures. However, the wild type worms consume significantly more oxygen than dld-(wr4) at all three temperatures. The toxicity of arsenite, on the other hand, was negatively correlated with phosphine toxicity. The phosphine-resistant mutant exhibited sensitivity to arsenite, which was close to an arsenite-sensitive mutant. Combining 4 mM of arsenite (~LC50) with 70 ppm phosphine resulted in elevated mortality of 89% in the phosphine-resistant mutant, whereas the combination was not lethal to wild type animals. One method of grain disinfestation is gamma irradiation; a treatment that can co-exist with phosphine in the grain storage system. I tested the toxicity of two distinct forms of irradiation on C. elegans, UV and gamma irradiation. By utilizing mutant lines that are sensitive or resistant to either phosphine or radiation, I found hypersensitivity to phosphine of mutations originally selected for hypersensitivity to either UV or gamma radiation. The phosphine-resistant and the radiation-resistant mutants were each significantly more resistant to UV and ionizing radiation than wild type C. elegans. UV and gamma radiation-sensitive mutant exhibited hypersensitivity to phosphine, considerably higher than the wild type in most cases. Unexpectedly, a gamma and UV radiation-resistant mutant was also hypersensitive to phosphine.
