Trends in Midwest: Pyrethroid Efficacy in CEW Declines: % Larval Control in Sweet Corn (Capture/Warrior; WI, MN) Year Mean 1997 93 1998 88 1999 81 2000 49 2001 17 2002 41 2003 40 2004 69 2005 2006 2007 61 35 Looks like the % larval control is going down over time. From later slides, mostly adults are being tested for resistance to pyrethroids. I thought there was not necessarily a link between adult resistance and larval resistance, is that not accurate? Not always a good link; That is why I also included slides for Direct Larval Assays (cypermethrin and Warrior, which are showing resistance too). (as per slide 9) Hutchison et al. Univ. of Minn.

Summary Pyrethroid Monitoring LA BW susceptibility to pyrethroids continues to decline. Widespread concerns (Midwest, TX, Southeast) Continue monitoring program during 2008. Alternative control strategies: Transgenics and Alternative Insecticides (Rynaxypyr)
