Abstract

Oxycarenus hyalinipennis Costa is a polyphagous insect pest and can develop insecticide resistance. The resistance of O. hyalinipennis to neonicotinoids (clothianidin and dinotefuran), flonicamid, and conventional insecticides; carbamates (methomyl and carbosulfon), organophosphates (chlorpyrifos and malathion), and pyrethroids (cypermethrin and zeta-cypermethrin) was evaluated. The O. hyalinipennis populations were sampled from four locations in Pakistan and performed bioassays against the insecticides by leaf dip protocol. The O. hyalinipennis’ populations showed low resistance to carbosulfan (resistance ratio (RR) = 2.06–6.34) and methomyl (RR = 2.78–7.27), moderate to high resistance to chlorpyrifos (RR = 30–45), malathion (RR = 20.29–88.19), and flonicamid (RR = 14.24–46.97), in comparison with the susceptible strain. Susceptibility to low resistance against cypermethrin (RR = 1.27–2.82), zeta-cypermethrin (RR = 2.62–3.38), and clothianidin (RR = 1.74–3.40), and low to moderate resistance to dinotefuran (RR = 3.84–13.43) in the field populations, was observed compared to the susceptible strain. A rotational usage of carbamates and pyrethroids with an integrated pest management tool should be considered to deal with O. hyalinipennis’ insecticide resistance.
