2 Managing Insec+cide Resistance: Program Rota+on Considera+ons SWD Poten+al to Develop Insec+cide Resistance Classes of Insec+cides Labeled for SWD in NYS Rota+on of Insec+cide Classes

3 Managing Insec+cide Resistance: Program Rota+on Considera+ons Insec;cide Resistance or Pes;cide resistance is a decrease in suscep+bility of a pest popula+on to a pes+cide that was previously effec+ve at controlling the pest. The failure of a product to perform in a real situa+on, is referred to as field resistance. Resistance occurs through natural selec;on. Resistant organisms survive and pass on their gene+c traits to their offspring.

4 Managing Insec+cide Resistance: Program Rota+on Considera+ons Insec;cide Resistance or Pes;cide resistance is a decrease in suscep+bility of a pest popula+on to a pes+cide that was previously effec+ve at controlling the pest. The failure of a product to perform in a real situa+on, referred to as field resistance. Resistance occurs through natural selec;on: resistant organisms survive and pass on their gene+c traits to their offspring.

5 Factors Contributing to Insecticide Resistance 1. Naturally occurring muta;ons are selected by insec+cide use, gives rise to a change in the insect physiology, altering the ac+ve ingredient target binding site. *Insect species that are usually capable of producing large number of offspring increases the probability of random muta+ons, thus increasing insec+cide resistance. 2. The speed with which a species develops (genera+on +me) and the number of offspring that are produced contribute to the increased speed of resistance development.

6 Factors Contributing to Insecticide Resistance 1. Insect species are usually capable of producing large number of offspring. This increases the probability of random muta;ons and ensures the rapid build- up in numbers of resistant mutants once such muta;ons have occurred. 2. The speed with which a species develops (genera;on ;me) and the number of offspring that develop contribute to increases the speed of resistance development 3. Plants produce phytotoxins for protec+on from herbivores. As a result, herbivores have developed physiological capability to detoxify poisons (and insec+cides). 4. Farmers oxen rely almost exclusively on insec;cides for pest control. Insec+cide residual increases selec+on pressure towards resistance. 5. Endemic resident insect popula;ons within a crop have greater exposure to insec+cides, leading to increased selec+on pressure towards resistance.

7 Development Range 10d 4 weeks

8 Factors Contributing to Insecticide Resistance SWD produce a single gen. in 10d to 4 weeks Produce as many as 13 generations / year (Japan) Range of 3-10 generations in NYS Given these complex of factors, SWD has a very high probability of developing insecticide resistance.

9 Managing Insecticide Resistance (IRM) Strategies are still being developed. Resistance management programs challenging. Limitations for successful SWD IR management include: Number of insecticide tools (too few) Number of insecticide classes Label restrictions DTH, PHI, Apps./season, Total A.I. per season

10 Managing Insecticide Resistance (IRM) Please refer to the chart in your binder

11 Managing Insecticide Resistance Blackberry and raspberry action threshold: detection of 1 st adult. A 3-4 day application interval needed to maintain marketable fruit. Blueberry management action threshold: within 7-21 days of 1 st adult, action threshold is 1 st egg detection using a 7-day application interval program. IRAC Class Rotation: A single IRAC class of insecticide should be used for each generation; rotate to different class every 10d (Warm: summer) to 3-4 weeks (Cool: Spring & Fall).
