Neonicotinoid insecticides are compounds acting agonistically on insect nicotinic acetylcholine
receptors (nAChR). They are especially active on hemipteran pest species such as …

Insecticide resistance has been and continues to be a significant problem for invertebrate
pest control. As such, effective insecticide resistance management (IRM) is critical to maintain …

BACKGROUND The development and commercialisation of new chemical classes of
insecticides for efficient crop protection measures against destructive invertebrate pests is of …

Acute oral and contact toxicity tests of imidacloprid, an insecticide acting agonistically on
nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR), to adult honeybees, Apis mellifera L var carnica, …

Flubendiamide represents a novel chemical family of substituted phthalic acid diamides with
potent insecticidal activity. So far, the molecular target and the mechanism of action were …

Background The control of tick and flea burdens in dogs and cats has become essential to
the control of important and emerging vector borne diseases, some of which are zoonoses. …

The mode of action of the active ingredient flubendiamide is described. Flubendiamide,
originally discovered by researchers from Nihon Nohyaku is the first commercial member of a …

Five new alkaloids, 6β-hydroxystemofoline (1), 16-hydroxystemofoline (2), neostemofoline (3),
protostemodiol (4), and 13-demethoxy-11(S*),12(R*)-dihydroprotostemonine (5), along …

Slowpoke (Slo) potassium channels display extraordinarily high conductance, are
synergistically activated by a positive transmembrane potential and high intracellular Ca 2+ …

A systematic analysis of the Drosophila genome data reveals the existence of pHCl, a novel
member of ligand-gated ion channel subunits. pHCl shows nearly identical similarity to …
