The Sublethal Effects of Pesticides on Insects

Abstract

Determination of the effects of insecticides on insects is usually done by considering account the mortality rates. This includes only a part of studies that show how insect populations will be affected by insecticides. However, recent studies have concluded that the effect of insecticides on insects can be revealed more clearly by determining the sublethal effects. The sublethal effects of insecticides on insects can be on the development, physiology and behaviour of insects. In this review, the sublethal effects of insecticides with different mechanisms of action on different insect species are discussed.

İnsektisitlerin Böcekler Üzerindeki Subletal Etkileri

Abstract

İnsektisitlerin böcekler üzerindeki etkilerinin belirlenmesi genellikle ölüm oranları dikkate alınarak yapılmaktadır. Bu ise böcek popülasyonlarının insektisitlerden nasıl etkileneceğini ortaya koyan çalışmaların sadece bir bölümünü içermektedir. Bununla birlikte son yıllarda yapılan çalışmalar ile insektisitlerin böceklere etkisinin daha net ortaya konabilmesinin subletal etkilerinin belirlenmesi ile mümkün olabileceği sonucuna varılmıştır. İnsektisitlerin böceklere subletal etkileri, böceklerin gelişimleri, fizyolojileri ve davranışları üzerine olabilmektedir. Bu derleme çalışmasında, farklı etki mekanizmalarına sahip insektisitlerin, farklı böcek türlerine olan subletal etkileri ele alınmıştır.
