    Nyckelord :insecticide resistance development; gut microbiota; gut symbiont-mediated resistance; trade-off effects; fitness costs; symbiosis; survival; life-history traits; fecundity;

    Sammanfattning : The insect gut microbiota has many important functions for insects such as detoxification of host plant toxins. Recently there has been a growing interest on the effect of insect gut microbiota on insecticide resistance development. Insecticide resistance is a growing concern for food security and sustainable agriculture. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Biological control of thrips with Neoseiulus cucumeris and Orius majusculus in strawberry tunnels

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Plant Breeding (from 130101)

    Författare :Robin Kalenius; [2016]
    Nyckelord :thrips; Neoseiulus cucumeris; Orius majusculus; strawberry; tunnels; resistance; IPM; IGP;

    Sammanfattning : Several cases of thrips resistance to pesticides have been observed due to heavy usage of insecticides during the seventies-eighties. Thrips complex enzyme metabolic detoxification system and fast reproduction has lead to a classification of major pest in strawberry production. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Rapsbaggen - en skadegörare i oljeväxter : litteratursammanställning av rapsbaggen som skadegörare i raps

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Författare :Patrik Svanström; [2015]
    Nyckelord :rapsbagge; ekologi; oljeväxter; skadegörare; bekämpning; skördeförluster; bekämpningströsklar; insekticidresistens;

    Sammanfattning : Rapsbaggen är en skadegörare i odling av oljeväxter och anses av många vara en av de viktigaste skadegörarna i grödan. Den allmänna uppfattningen i Sverige är att den är en skadegörare vilken kan orsaka totala skördeförluster om ingen bekämpning sker och denna uppfattning finner även stöd hos flera forskare. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Repelling Aedes aegypti : A sustainable plant based solution in Lao PDR

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning
