Detection of a New Pyrethroid Resistance Mutation (V410L) in the Sodium Channel of Aedes Aegypti: A Potential Challenge for Mosquito Control
Khalid Haddi,Hudson V. V. Tomé,Yuzhe Du,Wilson R. Valbon,Yoshiko Nomura,Gustavo Ferreira Martins,Ke Dong,Eugênio E. Oliveira +7 more
TL;DR: The V410L mutation drastically reduced the sensitivity of mosquito sodium channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes to both type I and type II pyrethroids and presents a serious challenge for the control of A. aegypti in Brazil.
Journal ArticleDOI
Imidacloprid-Induced Impairment of Mushroom Bodies and Behavior of the Native Stingless Bee Melipona quadrifasciata anthidioides
Hudson V. V. Tomé,Gustavo Ferreira Martins,Maria Augusta Pereira Lima,Lucio Antonio de Oliveira Campos,Raul Narciso C. Guedes +4 more
TL;DR: The lethal effects of imidacloprid on native stingless bees are demonstrated and evidence of novel serious sublethal effects that may compromise colony survival is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spinosad in the native stingless bee Melipona quadrifasciata: regrettable non-target toxicity of a bioinsecticide.
TL;DR: Findings indicate the hazardous nature not only of imidacloprid but also the bioinsecticide spinosad to adult workers of the native pollinator M. quadrifasciata and Bioinsecticides should not be exempted from risk assessment analysis due to their lethal and sublethal components.
Journal ArticleDOI
Agrochemical-induced stress in stingless bees: peculiarities, underlying basis, and challenges
Maria Augusta Pereira Lima,Gustavo Ferreira Martins,Eugênio E. Oliveira,Raul Narciso C. Guedes +3 more
TL;DR: The current literature on stingless bee-agrochemical interactions is reviewed and the underlying mechanisms involved in reported stress symptoms, as well as the potential consequences based on the peculiarities of these pollinators are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Protocol for the in vitro rearing of honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) workers
Daniel R. Schmehl,Hudson V. V. Tomé,Ashley N. Mortensen,Gustavo Ferreira Martins,James D. Ellis +4 more
TL;DR: In vitro rearing of worker honey bees from larvae to adult emergence can be implemented as the standard protocol to determine the impact of pesticides on immature bees because of the protocol’s high control survivability, ease in end point determination, and high overall repeatability.
