DOI: 10.1002/arch.21615
Abstract: Synthetic compounds that mimic the action of juvenile hormones (JHs) are founding members of a class of insecticides called insect growth regulators (IGRs). Like JHs, these juvenoids block metamorphosis of insect larvae to reproductive adults.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.2c05977
Abstract: As a result of some major problems that come from using insecticides, the use of safe alternatives to these pesticides has become very necessary. Thus, a novel series of predicted toxicologically active urea, thiourea, thiosemicarbazide,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jee/toz164
Abstract: Abstract Immature stages of the boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis grandis Boh. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), develop protected inside cotton fruiting structures. Therefore, the adult beetles have become the main target of insecticide applications. The use of insect… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/agronomy11102002
Abstract: The potential of insecticides that affect the growth and insect development to control Euprosterna elaeasa was evaluated. Fenoxycarb, methoxyfenozide, pyriproxyfen, and tebufenozide were assessed against E. elaeasa larvae for toxicity, survivorship, and feeding inhibition in… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/biom13030461
Abstract: Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are conserved in a wide range of organisms, including insects. In 2014, an epsilon GST, known as Noppera-bo (Nobo), was shown to regulate the biosynthesis of ecdysteroid, the principal steroid hormone in… read more here.
