Toxicity of [14C] phorate applied systemically to the aphids Myzus persicae (Sulz) and Brevicoryne brassicae (l.) grown on brussels sprout plants.

The effect of foliar application of [14C] phorate on the larvae of M. persicae and B. brassicae was studied. Regression analysis of the toxic components in the foliage and the probit kill showed that B. brassicae was more susceptible to the insecticide than M. persicae. The level of radioactivity extracted from the leaves, aphids and their honeydew shows that there was no correlation between the applied dose and the mortality. The amounts of honeydew produced by colonies before and after application of the insecticide were measured. The ratio of honeydew calculated shows that in M. persicae there was a slight increase in the honeydew production as the insecticide was increased from sublethal doses. At higher doses over the lethal range of the insecticide, honeydew production declined gradually in both the species.[1]
