Comparison of Insecticide Toxicity in Adults of the Fruit Flies Anastrepha fraterculus (Wied.) and Anastrepha grandis (Macquart) (Tephritidae)

Adalton Raga, Leonardo Tambones Galdino, Sara Braga e Silva, Fernando Berton Baldo & Mário Eidi Sato · Journal of Experimental Agriculture International · 2018

Fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) of economic and quarantine significance are responsible for both quantitative and qualitative losses in horticulture. Most producers in Brazil use insecticides as a cover spray for the control of fruit flies. Here new insecticide molecules were...
