Pest management in New Zealands pipfruit Integrated Fruit Production (IFP) programme relies on selective pesticides biological control and pheromone mating disruption The current situation is potentially precarious and one concern the impact of less selective pesticides was tested Apple trees received synthetic pyrethroid (deltamethrin) sprays during the first half of two growing seasons Beneficial and pest species were monitored monthly from November to April Treated trees had fewer predatory bugs (91 100 reduction) lacewings (64100) earwigs (80100) predatory mites (67100) spiders (2064) and Hymenoptera (1649) than untreated trees Ladybird numbers varied depending on the assessment method Outbreaks of phytophagous mites and woolly scale and Froggatts apple leafhopper on untreated trees Factors that make pest management under IFP vulnerable in the future include a loss of biological control and the consequences of new pests establishing

The degree of significance of enzyme activities in determining the rate of elimination of pesticides by vertebrates and insects is a central question in the study of their toxicity. Resistance to a particular pesticide may be greater where detoxifying enzymes are more active, and may be reduced by addition of inhibitors which block such activity selectively. Knowledge of enzymic differences between species should aid development of new selective pesticides of short persistence.
