Journal ArticleDOI

Aedes aegypti midgut remodeling during metamorphosis.

TL;DR: Dividing stem cells were observed in the fourth instar larvae and during the first 24h of pupation, which suggests that stem cells proliferate at the end of the larval period and during pupation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spinosad-mediated effects on the walking ability, midgut, and Malpighian tubules of Africanized honey bee workers.

TL;DR: Even at very low concentrations, the spinosad formulation was toxic to the vital organs midgut and Malpighian tubules and adversely affected walking behavior, providing new insights into the debate about the role of bioinsecticides in the mortality of Africanized honey bees.
Journal ArticleDOI

The reduced-risk insecticide azadirachtin poses a toxicological hazard to stingless bee Partamona helleri (Friese, 1900) queens.

TL;DR: Results showed azadirachtin posed a toxicological hazard to P. helleri queens, similar to imidacloprid, and altered development time, caused deformations, and reduced the size of the queens' reproductive organs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Imidacloprid-mediated effects on survival and fertility of the Neotropical brown stink bug Euschistus heros

TL;DR: Results suggest that females of E. heros increased their reproductive output in response to the imidacloprid sublethal exposure, suggesting a potential involvement of sub lethal exposure to neonicotinoids in the recent outbreaks of the Neotropical brown stink bug E. heroes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pyriproxyfen, a juvenile hormone analog, damages midgut cells and interferes with behaviors of Aedes aegypti larvae.

TL;DR: The pyriproxyfen causes remarkable histopathological and cytotoxic alterations in the midgut of larvae, and data suggest that pyri proxyfen can be used to help to control and eradicate this insect vector.
