摘要
The tetramic acid derivative spirotetramat (brand name Movento (R)), has shown an outstanding performance against sucking insect pests in laboratory and greenhouse assays as well as in semi-field and field trials'. The product acts as an inhibitor of lipid biosynthesis and affects juvenile stages with additional effects on adult fecundity. There is no cross-resistance to any other insecticide. After foliar application spirotetramat penetrates through the leaf cuticle and is translocated as spirotetramat-enol via xylem and phloem, up to growing shoots and down to roots. This full ambimobility or two-way systemicity (phloem and xylem transport) ensures the control of hidden and soil living sucking pests after foliar application and protects new shoots. The worldwide field development of spirotetramat in Bayer CropScience AG resulted in numerous uses against many species of whiteflies, aphids, scales (soft and armoured scales), mealy bugs, psyllids and selected thrips species in vegetables, cotton, soybean, pome and stone fruit, grapes, hop, citrus, nut trees and banana. The new mode of action renders spirotetramat as an excellent rotation partner with existing products for the management of aphid, whitefly and psyllid populations, which are frequently resistant to conventional insecticides. Moreover, only low adverse effects have been found on beneficial arthropods, which make the product suitable for modern integrated pest management (IPM) systems. These unique properties contribute to safeguarding the crop yield potential both in quality and quantity. In this paper, the new chemistry is presented, compared with standard insecticides and novel applications in IPM systems are discussed. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
