Resumen
Biological control is occasionally supplemented with insecticides treatments, which may have a significant impact on natural enemies. Typically, selective compounds are chosen to overcome lack of compatibility, but an alternative approach is the use of biocontrol agents resistant to pesticides. Orius laevigatus (Fieber) (Hemiptera: Anthocoridae) is the main predator used to control thrips and other small pests in greenhouses. The avermectin emamectin benzoate is a bioinsecticide developed for the control of lepidopteran pests, reported as moderately to highly toxic to O. laevigatus. Firstly, we studied the variation in susceptibility to emamectin benzoate in 32 wild and commercial populations of O. laevigatus. A 62.4-fold variation in response was found (LC50 from 0.8 mg L−1 to 49.9 mg L−1). The baseline LC50 was 4.8 mg L−1. Secondly, we exploited this intraspecific variation to select four distinct emamectin-resistant strains. After 41–47 selection cycles, four resistant strains were ...
