| novel mutations in the voltage-gated sodium channel of pyrethroid-resistant varroa destructor populations from the southeastern usa. | the parasitic mite varroa destructor has a significant worldwide impact on bee colony health. in the absence of control measures, parasitized colonies invariably collapse within 3 years. the synthetic pyrethroids tau-fluvalinate and flumethrin have proven very effective at managing this mite within apiaries, but intensive control programs based mainly on one active ingredient have led to many reports of pyrethroid resistance. in europe, a modification of leucine to valine at position 925 (l925v) ... | 2016 | 27191597 |
| perfluorinated alkyl acids in plasma of american alligators (alligator mississippiensis) from florida and south carolina. | the present study aimed to quantitate 15 perfluoroalkyl acids (pfaas) in 125 adult american alligators at 12 sites across the southeastern united states. of those 15 pfaas, 9 were detected in 65% to 100% of samples: perfluorooctanoic acid, perfluorononanoic acid, perfluorodecanoic acid (pfda), perfluoroundecanoic acid (pfuna), perfluorododecanoic acid, perfluorotridecanoic acid (pftria), perfluorotetradecanoic acid, perfluorohexanesulfonic acid (pfhxs), and perfluorooctane sulfonate (pfos). male ... | 2017 | 27543836 |
| establishment, population increase, spread, and ecological host range of lophodiplosis trifida (diptera: cecidomyiidae), a biological control agent of the invasive tree melaleuca quinquenervia (myrtales: myrtaceae). | the australian tree melaleuca quinquenervia (cavanilles) blake is an invasive weed in wetland systems of florida. a biological control program targeting m. quinquenervia has resulted in the release of the gall forming midge lophodiplosis trifida gagné (diptera: cecidomyiidae). populations of the introduced herbivore readily established at all 24 release sites across the weed's range in florida, and there was no evidence that founding colony size (100, 2,000, or 6,000 adults) influenced herbivore ... | 2013 | 24331604 |
