【目的】白背飞虱Sogatella furcifera是水稻上的主要害虫之一,目前白背飞虱主要以化学防治为主,为指导田间合理用药,本文报道了湖北白背飞虱田间种群对防治药剂的抗性变化情况。【方法】采用稻茎浸渍法监测了2011-2014年采自湖北鄂州蒲团、鄂州长港、枝江问安和石首南口稻田的白背飞虱4个田间种群对11种杀虫剂的抗性。【结果】白背飞虱田间种群已对噻嗪酮产生中等水平抗性(抗性倍数RR=13.0~38.6倍);对吡虫啉处于敏感至中等的抗性水平(RR=2.6~15.4倍);对噻虫嗪(RR=2.1~6.9倍)、噻虫胺(RR=3.0~7.0倍)、呋虫胺(RR=2.5~7.0倍)及啶虫脒(RR=3.3~8.2倍)处于敏感至低抗水平;所有白背飞虱田间种群均对烯啶虫胺(RR=2.2~4.9倍)、异丙威(RR=2.0~4.6倍)及醚菊酯(RR=1.8~4.0倍)敏感;除长港(2011-2012年)与蒲团(2012年)白背飞虱田间种群对吡蚜酮敏感外,其余白背飞虱田间种群均对吡蚜酮产生中等水平抗性(RR=15.2~91.0倍);白背飞虱长港田间种群(2013年与2014年种群)对毒死蜱产生中等水平抗性,抗性倍数分别为15.6和10.1,其余白背飞虱田间种群则对毒死蜱为敏感或低水平抗性(RR=1.7~8.5倍)。【结论】根据监测结果,建议加强对噻嗪酮、吡虫啉和吡蚜酮抗性监测,同时减少噻嗪酮、吡虫啉和吡蚜酮在水稻田使用次数,降低杀虫剂对白背飞虱田间种群选择压,延长其在田间的使用寿命。     

湖北稻区褐飞虱田间种群对常用杀虫剂抗药性监测

【目的】明确目前褐飞虱Nilaparvata lugens田间种群对常用防治药剂的抗性现状,为制定褐飞虱的科学用药策略提供科学依据。【方法】于2009-2014年采用稻茎浸渍法监测了湖北褐飞虱武穴梅川、枣阳十里铺、孝感陈店、鄂州长港和武汉江夏稻田的褐飞虱田间种群对11种杀虫剂的敏感性。【结果】湖北稻区褐飞虱田间种群已对吡虫啉(抗性倍数RR=101.8~1 239.4)、噻嗪酮(RR=15.9~1 326.3)产生高水平抗性;对噻虫嗪(RR=24.9~146.5)产生中等水平至高水平抗性;对噻虫胺(RR=9.9~16.5)、呋虫胺(RR=13.5~15.9)、乙虫腈(RR=18.3~60.4)、毒死蜱(RR=17.4~29.8)、异丙威(RR=13.9~46.0)产生中等水平抗性;对啶虫脒(RR=5.1~9.9)产生低水平抗性;对噻虫啉(RR=3.9~7.1)处于敏感至低水平抗性水平;对醚菊酯(RR=1.3~4.9)处于敏感水平。此外,褐飞虱对噻虫嗪、噻嗪酮抗性上升明显,同时褐飞虱对吡虫啉抗性也有上升的趋势。【结论】仍需暂停吡虫啉、噻嗪酮在水稻上防治稻飞虱,严格限制吡蚜酮在水稻上的使用次数;醚菊酯可作为吡虫啉、噻嗪酮和吡蚜酮的替代药剂或轮换药剂。     

褐飞虱和白背飞虱对几类杀虫剂的敏感性

为了科学用药和抗性治理提供理论基础, 采用稻茎浸渍法测定了2008年7月采自浙江省杭州市和宁波市褐飞虱 Nilaparvata lugens (Stål)种群对7种杀虫剂的抗药性及褐飞虱和白背飞虱Sogatella furcifera (Horváth)种群对16种杀虫剂的敏感性。褐飞虱抗药性测定结果表明, 与相对敏感品系相比, 杭州种群和宁波种群对吡虫啉的抗性倍数分别为479.0倍和366.1倍; 对氯噻啉的抗性倍数分别为81.1倍和50.9倍; 对噻虫嗪的抗性倍数分别为10.3倍和9.4倍; 对噻嗪酮和氟虫腈分别产生了5.0~8.6倍和15.8~17.0倍的抗药性; 对烯啶虫胺和啶虫脒的抗性倍数在3倍以下。两种稻飞虱对杀虫剂的敏感性测定结果表明: 噻虫嗪、噻嗪酮、烯啶虫胺和毒死蜱对褐飞虱和白背飞虱种群都具有较高的室内毒力。当田间褐飞虱和白背飞虱混合发生时, 可选用噻虫嗪、噻嗪酮、烯啶虫胺和毒死蜱进行防治, 不宜使用吡虫啉、氯噻啉和氟虫腈防治。     

广东白背飞虱种群对常用杀虫剂的敏感性测定

在室内采用稻茎浸渍法测定了广东省广州市和南雄市2个白背飞虱种群对吡虫啉、呋虫胺、烯啶虫胺、噻虫嗪、噻嗪酮、吡蚜酮等6种常用农药的敏感性。结果表明:不同白背飞虱种群对吡虫啉的敏感性最高,LC50值在0.0133-0.1538 mg/L之间;对噻嗪酮敏感性最低,LC50值在0.8806-1.6948 mg/L之间。不同白背飞虱种群对同一种杀虫剂的敏感性差异较大。     

吡蚜酮对白背飞虱的发育、繁殖和药剂敏感性的亚致死效应（英文）

【目的】白背飞虱Sogatella furcifera(Horváth)是我国重要的水稻害虫。本研究旨在确定亚致死浓度吡蚜酮对白背飞虱发育和繁殖及亚致死浓度处理后白背飞虱对其他药剂的敏感性变化的影响。【方法】用生命表法研究了亚致死浓度吡蚜酮处理对白背飞虱F0及F1代发育历期、存活率、羽化率和寿命的亚致死效应;采用稻茎浸渍法,测定了亚致死浓度吡蚜酮处理后白背飞虱对其他药剂的敏感性。【结果】经LC_(10)和LC_(25)吡蚜酮处理后,白背飞虱F0代3-5龄若虫历期比对照(8.25 d)分别延长了1.98 d和4.25 d,寿命分别比对照(14.54 d)缩短了0.49和1.73 d,3-5龄若虫存活率(分别为85.00%和68.50%)和羽化率(分别为75.89%和67.78%)比对照(分别为92.00%和85.90%)下降,其中LC_(25)处理组与对照比差异显著。LC_(10)和LC_(25)吡蚜酮处理的白背飞虱F1代羽化率(分别为76.97%和68.94%)、交尾率(分别为77.79%和66.44%)和卵孵化率(分别为73.19%和68.67%)比对照(分别为88.22%,86.67%和87.26%)显著降低,但只有LC_(25)处理组的F1代发育历期与对照组有显著差异;LC_(10)和LC_(25)吡蚜酮处理后的F1代单雌产卵量比对照(147.80粒/雌)显著下降(分别为112.36和88.34粒/雌),种群相对适合度比对照(1.00)也明显下降(分别为0.41和0.20)。经吡蚜酮LC_(10)和LC_(25)处理后,测定白背飞虱对噻虫嗪,毒死蜱和噻嗪酮的敏感性结果显示,这3种杀虫剂的LC50在LC_(10)处理组中分别为2.16,40.87和3.12 mg/L,在LC_(25)处理组中分别为4.93,17.96和8.39 mg/L。噻虫嗪、毒死蜱、噻嗪酮的相对毒力指数(RTI)结果显示,LC_(10)和LC_(25)处理后的白背飞虱对这3种杀虫剂的敏感性均降低。【结论】吡蚜酮处理后,白背飞虱对其他药剂的敏感性均降低。吡蚜酮亚致死浓度处理能降低白背飞虱的繁殖力,抑制种群增长,亚致死浓度处理后的白背飞虱种群对噻虫嗪、毒死蜱和噻嗪酮的敏感性均降低。     

贵州稻区褐飞虱种群对六种杀虫剂的抗性动态

【目的】为明确贵州褐飞虱Nilaparvata lugens种群对常用杀虫剂的抗性水平。【方法】在室内采用浸渍法测定了2013-2015年采自贵州黄平、桐梓和开阳3地的褐飞虱种群对6种杀虫剂(吡虫啉、噻虫嗪、异丙威、噻虫胺、啶虫脒和醚菊酯)的抗性。【结果】贵州褐飞虱种群对不同的杀虫剂存在着抗性差异。与敏感品系相比,2013-2015年间3地田间褐飞虱种群对吡虫啉、噻虫嗪、异丙威、噻虫胺的抗性均达到中等水平抗性,抗性倍数(resistance ratio,RR)分别为21.88~95.38,10.91~69.36,13.00~57.23和23.11~39.54倍;而对啶虫脒和醚菊酯仍处于敏感阶段,RR分别为0.47~0.75和0.41~0.85倍。【结论】褐飞虱对吡虫啉和噻虫嗪的抗性较高,可能与近年来广泛地大量使用有关。本研究的抗性动态监测结果对贵州稻区褐飞虱的杀虫剂种类调整及施药策略等具有重要指导作用。     

惠州地区褐飞虱对几种药剂的抗药性监测

2009年采用稻茎浸渍法测定广东省惠州地区褐飞虱Nilaparvata lugens(Stl)种群对吡虫啉、噻嗪酮、异丙威、丁烯氟虫腈、烯定虫胺和毒死蜱等杀虫剂的敏感性,测定结果表明:当地褐飞虱种群对吡虫啉产生了极高水平抗性(抗性倍数为422.2倍),对噻嗪酮、异丙威产生了中等水平抗性(抗性倍数分别为11.0和14.0倍),对丁烯氟虫腈仍处于敏感性降低(抗性倍数为3.7倍),对烯定虫胺和毒死蜱敏感(抗性倍数<3倍)。基于褐飞虱对这6种药剂抗性的明显差异,对田间治理褐飞虱合理使用药剂进行了讨论。     

江西省柑橘木虱对五种常规药剂的抗药性

【目的】针对江西省柑橘木虱Diaphorina citri对常规杀虫剂抗药性水平的研究相对匮乏,研究不同地区柑橘木虱种群对常用杀虫剂的抗性水平,为生产实践合理化用药提供依据。【方法】采用浸叶法测定毒死蜱、联苯菊酯、噻虫嗪、烯啶虫胺和虫螨腈5种杀虫剂对上高县（SG）、宜黄（YH）、南丰（NF）、宁都（ND）、大余（DY）和寻乌县（XW）6个不同地区的田间柑橘木虱的毒力,结合毒力参考基线,得到抗性倍数。【结果】上高、宜黄和南丰县种群对毒死蜱的抗性倍数在中等水平（9.01-15.01）,而宁都、大余和寻乌县则是高水平抗性（128.36-308.82）。大余种群对联苯菊酯的抗性水平为133.71倍,其他5个地区均在中等水平（17.08-88.53）。不同地区柑橘木虱种群对噻虫嗪的抗性倍数在13.62-25.92,仅为中等偏低水平;而它们对烯啶虫胺的抗性倍数为77.37-257.71,已经达到极高水平。与联苯菊酯类似,除了大余种群对虫螨腈为高水平抗性外,其余5个地区种群均为中等水平。【结论】赣南脐橙产区的宁都县、大余县和寻乌县的柑橘木虱种群对5种常用杀虫剂均表现出高水平抗性,显著高于非赣南脐橙产区种群（上高县、宜黄县和南丰县）。推荐在高抗地区使用抗性水平较低的药剂,并注意轮换用药;在中等抗性地区应有限制地使用药剂,以延缓抗性增长。     

灰飞虱对噻嗪酮的抗性风险及机理

为研究灰飞虱对噻嗪酮的抗性发展规律及抗性生化机理,采用稻苗喷雾法对灰飞虱种群进行连续筛选获得高抗性品系,估算其现实遗传力并进行田间抗性风险预测;采用稻苗浸渍法测定杀虫剂对灰飞虱的毒力及交互抗性;利用生物化学方法测定不同品系之间的解毒酶活力,探讨灰飞虱对噻嗪酮的抗性生化机理.结果表明:用噻嗪酮对灰飞虱种群连续筛选32代,其抗性倍数达到168.49倍,现实遗传力h~2为0.11.当杀死率为80%~90%时,预计灰飞虱对噻嗪酮的抗性增长10倍,仅需要5~6代.田间实际的现实遗传力要比室内选择种群估计低一些,预计田间抗性提高10倍所需要时间会更长.交互抗性测定结果表明,灰飞虱抗噻嗪酮品系与吡虫啉和噻虫嗪之间有高水平交互抗性,与啶虫脒有低水平交互抗性,与吡蚜酮和毒死蜱无交互抗性.增效作用和解毒酶活力测定结果显示,抗性品系细胞色素P450单加氧酶活力提高最大,酯酶次之,谷胱甘肽-S-转移酶无显著变化.田间使用噻嗪酮防治灰飞虱存在较大抗性风险,可与吡蚜酮和毒死蜱等交替使用以延缓抗性发展;3种解毒酶中,细胞色素P450单加氧酶在灰飞虱对噻嗪酮的抗性发展中起到了重要作用.     

褐飞虱抗药性研究现状

褐飞虱Nilaparvata lugens(Stal)对杀虫剂产生抗药性是其近年来暴发频繁的重要原因。文章综述国内外关于褐飞虱抗药性的研究成果,包括褐飞虱抗性测定方法、抗药性的发展、交互抗性、抗性遗传、抗性机理及抗性治理等。田间褐飞虱种群对新烟碱类药剂产生不同程度的抗药性,其中对吡虫啉产生高水平到极高水平抗性,对氯噻啉和噻虫嗪分别产生中等水平和低水平的抗药性,对呋虫胺和烯啶虫胺仍然处于敏感性阶段。此外,褐飞虱种群对噻嗪酮(昆虫生长调节剂)产生低水平到中等水平抗性。长期大面积使用化学药剂是褐飞虱产生抗药性的重要原因。因此,必须加强褐飞虱的抗性治理,以延缓其抗药性进一步发展。     

几类杀虫剂对灰飞虱的相对毒力及田间种群的抗药性现状

采用浸苗法测定了6类11种杀虫剂对灰飞虱Laodelphax striatellus (Fallén)3龄若虫的毒力,并分析比较了江苏句容、通州、楚州、大丰、南京和苏州以及安徽庐江等7地灰飞虱种群对10种杀虫剂的抗药性水平。对云南种群而言,在所测杀虫剂中,以乙酰甲胺磷为标准药剂,氟虫腈的相对毒力最高;噻嗪酮、阿维菌素和噻虫嗪次之;高效氯氰菊酯、IPP（硝基亚甲基类化合物）、毒死蜱、敌敌畏和三唑磷间毒力处于同一数量级,低于阿维菌素等杀虫剂;吡虫啉的相对毒力最低。与云南种群相比,2007年采自苏、皖7个不同地区的灰飞虱种群对噻嗪酮产生了极高水平的抗性,其抗性倍数均超过200倍;对高效氯氰菊酯产生了中高水平的抗性,其抗性倍数为7.8～108.8;安徽庐江灰飞虱种群对三唑磷产生了7.7倍的抗性,对毒死蜱产生了12.0倍的抗性,江苏楚州、南京、大丰和句容灰飞虱种群对毒死蜱产生了5.7～12.6倍的抗性; 所有灰飞虱种群对敌敌畏仍然敏感,对氟虫腈、阿维菌素和新烟碱类杀虫剂吡虫啉、噻虫嗪和IPP等也比较敏感。     

不同类型杀虫剂对烟粉虱捕食性天敌日本刀角瓢虫的毒力

采用试管药膜法,测定了不同类型杀虫剂对日本刀角瓢虫Serangium japonicum Chapin的毒力。结果表明,灭多威和敌敌畏对日本刀角瓢虫具有极强的毒力,其25%推荐剂量即可导致日本刀角瓢虫全部死亡;氯虫苯甲酰胺、吡虫啉和噻虫嗪对日本刀角瓢虫也具有很强的毒力,其田间推荐剂量可导致日本刀角瓢虫全部死亡,其50%推荐剂量对日本刀角瓢虫的致死率也高达73.33%～100.00%;乐果、烯啶虫胺、丁醚脲田间推荐剂量对日本刀角瓢虫的致死率分别为40.00%、56.67%、50.00%,预示着上述这些杀虫剂的田间应用对刀角瓢虫具有很高的直接杀伤风险。高效氯氰菊酯、联苯菊酯、毒死蜱、甲氰菊酯、高效氯氟氰菊酯、虫螨腈、阿维菌素、吡蚜酮、噻嗪酮、定虫隆和氟虫脲对日本刀角瓢虫的毒力较低甚至没有直接致死作用。研究结果将为合理使用杀虫剂,协调利用化学防治与生物防治对烟粉虱进行综合防治提供依据。     

棉蚜啶虫脒抗性种群交互抗性和增效剂增效作用的研究

【目的】明确棉蚜Aphis gossypii Glover啶虫脒抗性品系与其它杀虫剂的交互抗性现状以及增效剂的增效作用,为延缓和治理棉蚜对啶虫脒的抗性提供依据。【方法】采用单头反选育和群体汰选的方式,获得了棉蚜啶虫脒敏感和抗性品系;采用叶片药膜法测定了13种杀虫剂对啶虫脒的交互抗性以及增效剂对啶虫脒的增效作用。【结果】经过室内棉蚜敏感和抗性品系的筛选,获得了相对抗性倍数为82.33倍的棉蚜啶虫脒抗性品系。棉蚜啶虫脒抗性品系的交互抗性谱的研究表明,交互抗性倍数小于5的药剂为:吡蚜酮,甲基阿维菌素;交互抗性倍数在5~10倍的药剂为:噻虫嗪,联苯菊酯,毒死蜱,马拉硫磷,丙溴磷,辛硫磷;交互抗性倍数在10~15倍的药剂为:硫丹,阿维菌素,高效氯氰菊酯,三唑磷,氧化乐果;交互抗性倍数大于1 5倍的药剂为:吡虫啉。增效剂实验表明,TPP和PBO在啶虫脒敏感品系中增效作用不明显,但在抗性品系中增效作用显著。在啶虫脒抗性品系中的增效比为1.77、1.61,在啶虫脒敏感品系中的增效比为1.02、1.03。DEM在啶虫脒抗性、敏感品系中的增效作用均不明显,增效比为1.04、1.02。TPP和PBO对啶虫脒有很好的增效作用。以室内棉蚜敏感品系(LC_(50)为0.180 mg/L)为基础,对新疆各主要棉区的棉蚜种群进行了啶虫脒药剂的抗性调查,结果表明新疆各主要棉区棉蚜对啶虫脒的相对抗性倍数为6.1~22.0倍。【结论】由此说明新疆主要棉区棉蚜对啶虫脒具有一定的抗性风险,生产中可以利用无交互抗性的吡蚜酮和甲基阿维菌素来治理抗性棉蚜种群。     

白背飞虱不同地区种群的抗药性研究

测定了白背飞虱浙江和广西种群（迁入虫源）,云南和海南种群（当地虫源（的抗药性程度,以及与抗性相关酶系即非特异性酯酶、羧酸酯酶,谷胱甘肽-S-转移酶和乙酰胆碱酯酶等比活力,云南和海南种群对各药剂抗性水平明显较高,但个体异质性则低于浙江和广西种群;4种酶平均比活性以浙江和广西种群明显为高,其中浙江种群个体间酶活频率分布较宽而广西种群则相反,最后,就白背飞虱不同种群抗药性水平及其相关酶活性的地区差异性与该飞虱长距离迁飞的关系进行了讨论。     

Acute and sublethal effects of neonicotinoids and pymetrozine on an important egg parasitoid,Trichogramma ostriniae (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae)

Both neonicotinoids and pymetrozine are important insecticides and may have the potential to be used in combination with natural enemies in integrated pest management (IPM). However, to determine their compatibility with biological control, it is necessary to examine the side effects of these chemicals on natural enemies. We examined the acute and sublethal effects of four commonly used neonicotinoid insecticides, imidacloprid, dinotefuran, nitenpyram and thiamethoxam, and the pyridine azomethine, pymetrozine, on adults of Trichogramma ostriniae. By analysing acute toxicity and evaluating the safety quotient of these chemicals, we found that thiamethoxam and dinotefuran pose extremely high risks to T. ostriniae, imidacloprid and nitenpyram posed high risks, but pymetrozine was found to have a low risk. In terms of sublethal effects, longevities of female wasps were significantly shortened when they were exposed to residues of dinotefuran. Percentages of ovipositing females decreased significantly after exposure to pymetrozine, thiamethoxam and dinotefuran. Numbers of offspring per female were significantly lower when females were exposed to pymetrozine, dinotefuran or thiamethoxam, compared with control females. Percentages of offspring that emerged as adults were lower when parental females were exposed to either pymetrozine or imidacloprid. Based on the results of the sublethal concentration assay and the acute toxicity bioassay, nitenpyram would be safe for IPM programmes utilising T. ostriniae, and we suggest that T. ostriniae could be released safely after foliar applications of nitenpyram. However, foliar application of imidacloprid, thiamethoxam, dinotefuran or pymetrozine in an agro-ecosystem where T. ostriniae is a predominant biocontrol agent should be carefully evaluated.     

Effects of Selected Chemical Pesticides on Agamermis unka (Nematoda: Mermithidae), a Parasite of the Brown Plant Hopper,Nilaparvata lugens

Selected commercial and technical grade pesticides were tested against the egg, preparasite and adult stages of Agamermis unka , a nematode parasite of the brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens . The commercial insecticide, diazinon (LC = 0.37 ppm), was most toxic to the 50 preparasites, followed by phenthoate (LC = 0.43 ppm), BPMC (LC = 0.44 ppm), IBP 50 50 (LC = 0.46 ppm), cartap hydrochloride (LC = 0.82 ppm) and buprofezin + isoprocarb 50 50 (LC = 1.11 ppm). The least toxic commercial pesticide tested was the fungicide, pencycuron 50 (LC = 2.19 ppm). Out of 12 technical grade insecticides tested, phenthoate, monocrotophos, 50 diazinon and carbofuran (LC = 0.37-0.46 ppm) were highly toxic to the preparasites, followed by 50 buprofezin, BPMC and fenitrothion (LC = 0.74-0.86 ppm). Fenthion, etofenprox, chlorpyrifos, 50 imidacloprid and MIPC (LC = 1.11-2.19 ppm) were the technical grade insecticides least toxic 50 to the preparasites. Most preparasites survived for up to 24 h at the low insecticide concentrations (0.63 and 0.31 ppm). Preparasites that were exposed to BPMC for 24 h at concentrations as high as 5.0 ppm and survived the treatments infected brown planthopper nymphs. Four selected insecticides-chlorpyrifos, BPMC, imidacloprid and carbofuran-had significant adverse effects on A. unka egg hatching. Eggs that were in the insecticide solution for 168 h fared poorly with imidacloprid having the best survival ( > 2% of the eggs hatching at 0.04 ppm). No eggs hatched from the other insecticide treatments. Three selected insecticides, BPMC, imidacloprid and chlorpyrifos, tested against adult A. unka showed that most adults survived the exposure to the insecticides between 0.31 and 2.5 ppm. At 5.0 ppm of BPMC or chlorpyrifos none of the adults survived, whereas with imidacloprid 70% of the adults survived. Egg deposition by the surviving adults was greatly reduced in those treated with the insecticides compared with those in the controls. Imidacloprid had some negative impact on the preparasites' ability to infect BPH nymphs, but it had the least detrimental effect of the insecticides tested on preparasite survival and on the eggs and adults of A. unka .     

Impact of greenhouse whitefly management on strawberry fruit quality

The greenhouse whitefly, Trialeurodes vaporariorum （Westwood）, is an important pest of strawberries in California, USA. The adults and nymphs feed on phloem sap of leaves to remove the photo-assimilates. The objective of this study is to test the impact of whitefly management with insecticides on strawberry fruit quality. Applications of imidacloprid, thiamethoxam, buprofezin and pyriproxyfen decreased the mean adult whitefly numbers by 2.80-, 2.17-, 1.69- and 1.39-fold, respectively, compared to the untreated control, Similarly, the mean numbers of first and second instar whiteflies were reduced 4.36-, 2.20-, 1.90- and 2.02-fold, respectively, while the mean numbers of third and fourth instars were reduced 5.48-, 2.28-, 2.71- and 1.43-fold, respectively, in plants treated with imidacloprid, thiamethoxam, buprofezin and pyriproxyfen. The mean soluble solids content in imidacloprid, thiamethoxam, buprofezin and pyriproxyfen treatments was 1.04-, 1.06-, 1.03- and 1.04-fold greater, respectively, than that in the control. The whitefly reduction enhanced the mean fruit titratable acidity by 4%-6%. Mean glucose levels in imidacloprid and thiamethoxam treatments were significantly higher than in other treatments. However, the whitefly management did not affect the mean fructose levels, lmidacloprid, thiamethoxam and pyriproxyfen treatments boosted the ascorbic acid levels by up to 4%. The impact of whitefly management on strawberry fruit nutrition and antioxidant capacity is discussed.
