Morphological abnormalities induced by Fenoxycarb on the pupa ofPhanerotoma (Phanerotoma) ocularisKohl (Hym., Braconidae)
1993
Fenoxycarb at concentrations of 0.001 μg/ml, 0.005 μg/ml, 0.01 μg/ml, 0.05μg/ml and 0.1 μg/ml had an adverse effect on the pupa of Phanerotoma (Phanerotoma) ocularis. When topically applied, it induced morphological abnormalities. The percentage of anomalous obtained depended of developmental pupal stage and was higher when was applied in the first moment of development (80 %-90 %) than in the final of development (50%-60%). These anomalous was inviables.

Morphological abnormalities induced by Fenoxycarb on the ectoparasitic larval stage ofPhanerotoma (Phanerotoma) ocularisKohl (Hym., Braconidae)
1993
The Juvenile Hormone Analog Fenoxycarb at concentrations of 0.001 μg/ml, 0.005 μ/ml, 0.01 μg/ml, 0.05 μg/ml and 0.1 μg/ml had an adverse effect on the ectoparasitic larva of Phanerotoma (Phanerotoma) ocularis when topically applied. The total percentage of abnormalities obtained was higher (63.3 %-93.3 %) if the treatment was applied on the third substage than when it was applied on the fourth substage (53.3 %-76.7%). The activity rate was concentration dependent for both substages.

Effect of the juvenile hormone analogue fenoxycarb applied via the host on the parasitoid Phanerotoma (Phanerortoma) ocularis Kohl (Hym. Braconidae)
1993
Abstract Concentrations of 0.001, 0.005, 0.01, 0.05 and 0.1 μg/ml of fenoxycarb (Ro 13-5223) were applied topically to larvae of Ephestia kuehniella Zeller parasitized by Phanerotoma (Phanerotoma) ocularis Kohl. The effect of the treatment and concentration on parasitism rates, preimaginal mortality and emergence rates of the parasitoid were studied comparatively for each larval instar of the host considered. The preimaginal mortality was high when the fenoxycarb was applied on the first larval instar of the host (23–46%) and more higher when applied to the sixth larval instar of the host (40–86%). Consequently, fenoxycarb treatment of the last larval instar of the host produced a reduction…
Expression of phase-specific haemolymph polypeptides in a laboratory strain and field catches of Schistocerca gregaria.
2003
Uvarov's theory of locust phase polymorphism implies a differential phase-specific gene expression. It was the goal of the present investigation to provide data on the molecular level for this concept. We used the technique of 2D gel electrophoresis to generate haemolymph polypeptide maps from mature locust males. Under the given conditions we identified 238 polypeptide spots by their molecular weight and isoelectrical point. Isolated and crowded males from the Mainz strain, all originating from crowded ancesters, differed in 20 spots: three were solitary-specific and 17 crowded-specific. Field catches of solitary and gregarious S. gregaria in Mauritania revealed that those males showed the…
Field application of the juvenile hormone analogue fenoxycarb against hopper bands of Locusta migratoria capito in Madagascar
1997
Summary Field trials have been carried out to examine the suitability of the JHA fenoxycarb in locust control. Laboratory tests have shown that a variety of JHAs, including fenoxycarb, applied to last instar larvae increased mortality, induced morphogenetic defects during metamorphosis, reduced fertility and provoked solitarisation of gregarious hoppers. The phase shift was indicated by green coloration and the acquisition of morphological and behavioural characteristics typical for solitary locusts. The present field experiments should clarify whether or not the effects observed in the laboratory are also observed with hopper bands in their natural habitat and if swarm formation and emigra…
