Abstract

Parathion-resistant (R) (× 24) onion maggot (OM), Delia antiqua (Mėigen) (Diptera: Anthomyiidae), adults showed 15-, 9.3-, and 7.7-fold levels of cross-resistance to direct contact applications of chlorpyrifos, naled and chlorfenvinphos, respectively, when compared at the LD50 with an insecticide-susceptible OM strain. R OM also showed 3.4-, 2.9-, 1.6-, and 1.3-fold levels of resistance to deltamethrin, permethrin, cypermethrin, and fenvalerate, respectively. The low-level resistance to the pyrethroids was probably conferred from DDT, to which the R OM strain had a 4.7-fold resistance level. Nevertheless, deltamethrin, cypermethrin, fenvalerate, and permethrin were 137, 58, 28, and 17 ×, respectively, more toxic to the R OM strain than was parathion.

Résumé

Les adultes de la mouche de l'oignon (MO), Delia antiqua (Meigen) (Diptères : Anthomyiidae) résistants au parathion (R) (× 24) ont révélés une résistance croisée de 15-, 9.3- et 7.7 fois dans des essais de toxicité par contact direct de chlorpyrifos, naled, chlorfenvinphos, respectivement, quand ils ont été comparés à la DM50 d'une lignée de la MO susceptible aux insecticides. MO R a aussi révélé un taux de résistance de 3.4-, 2.9-, 1.6-, et 1.3-fois au deltaméthrine, perméthrine, cyperméthrine et fenvalerate, respectivement. Cette faible résistance aux pyréthrioides s'est probablement avérée du DDT, auquel la MO R a un taux de résistance de 4.7 fois. Toutefois, la deltaméthrine, la cyperméthrine, le fenvalérate et la perméthrine sont 137, 58, 28, et 17 fois respectivement, plus toxiques envers la lignée de la MO que l'est le parathion.
