Malathion Synergism Against Organophosphate-Resistant Two-Spotted Spider Mites

T. J. Henneberry, W. R. Smith

Open publisher page 4 citations

Abstract

Organophosphate resistant two-spotted spider mites, Tetranychns telarius (L.), were about 3.5 times more susceptible to solutions of malathion containing chemicals known to be ali-esterase inhibitors than to solutions of malathion alone. These chemicals alone were acaricidal at concentrations higher than those necessary to demonstrate this synergistic effect with malathion.
