Toxicity of Diazinon against Adults of confused flour beetle (Tribolium confusum Jasquelin) under laboratory condition
Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
Confused flour beetle causes significant quantitative and qualitative losses to flour in the stores and silos. Pest susceptibility to diazinon as known insecticide in Iran was studied in 2013 and 2014 under laboratory condition. Results showed that LC50 value was very close and determined 142.91 and 142.21 ppm in 2013 and 2014, respectively. The calculated LC 50 values were very lower than that recommended dose for the other pest by company. Results suggest that diazinon can be used as contact insecticide in Tribolium confusum control in the stores as one part of the postharvest integrated pest management program.
