AbstractThe relationship between posttreatment temperatures of 15°, 20°, 25°, and 30°C and toxicity of six pesticides to adult female Phytoseiulus persimilis Athias-Henriot and Tetranychus urticae Koch were studied in the laboratory.The toxicities of cyhexatin, dicofol, propargite, citrazon, chlorobenzilate, and per-methrin were positively correlated with temperature. Except for propargite and permefhrin, P. persimilis was less susceptible than T. urticae at 15° and 20°C, but equal in susceptibility at 25° and 30°C.The results obtained may indicate a potential value of posttreatment temperature manipulation as a useful adjunct to integrated pest control programs in glasshouses.
