Susceptibility and field exposure of <i>Striacosta albicosta</i> (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) eggs and larvae in Ontario, Canada to four insecticides
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Striacosta albicosta Smith (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is a primary pest of corn, Zea mays L., in the Great Lakes region, causing yield loss and exacerbating mycotoxin contamination of grain. Foliar insecticides are currently used to manage S. albicosta; however, the toxicity and residual activity of these insecticides against S. albicosta are unknown. Laboratory and field bioassays were conducted to determine the susceptibility and period of in-field efficacy provided by chlorantraniliprole, lambda-cyhalothrin, spinetoram, and methoxyfenozide against S. albicosta. Bioassay data were used to simulate management scenarios. RESULTS: For all insecticides tested, 1st instars were highly susceptible to the recommended field application rates and were >3-fold more susceptible to insecticides than 3rd instars. Insecticide activity decreased after application for all insecticides, with chlorantraniliprole having the longest residual activity. In simulated management scenarios where an insecticide was applied at or below the recommended 5% egg mass threshold with additional oviposition, methoxyfenozide application resulted in greater larval survival 14 days after application (DAA) than the other insecticides tested. In scenarios where insecticides were applied 7 days before threshold was reached, all insecticides resulted in larval survival. CONCLUSION: These data demonstrate that chlorantraniliprole, lambda-cyhalothrin and spinetoram, applied in conjunction with monitoring, provide effective control of S. albicosta larvae for 10-14 days, whereas methoxyfenozide provides effective control for less than 7 days. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
