    Fertility and life expectancy of a predatory stinkbug to sublethal doses of a pyrethroid
    (Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2012-11-07) Zanuncio, Jose C.; Jusselino-Filho, Pedro; Ribeiro, Rafael C.; Castro, Ancideriton A.; Zanuncio, Teresinha V.; Serrão, Jose E.
    Podisus distinctus (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) is an important predator used in biological control of eucalypt defoliating caterpillars, exposed the insecticides. Lower doses of permethrin not affect the values of generation time (T), time necessary to double the population in number of individuals (DT) and intrinsic rate of population increase (r m ). Moreover, females of P. distinctus derived from nymphs treated with lower doses of permethrin were more fertile, triggering the effect hormetic in net reproductive rates (Ro). Results showed that low permethrin doses can be used alongside the predatory stinkbug in Integrated Pest Management programs.
