昆虫不育剂已经用于害虫防治,并逐步发展为一类新型的化学药剂。例如,绝育磷(TEPA)和不育特(apholate)可以在棉花上防治象鼻虫、红铃虫和斜纹夜蛾等重要害虫。 耐普林(knipling)通过理论和实践的研究表明,施用接触性化学不育剂明显地优于辐射不育法,它不需要大量饲养和释放不育雄虫,并且比直接杀死昆虫的农药更为优越。如果某杀虫剂有90％的效力,以100头害虫作为基数的话,存活的10％害虫继续交配繁殖后代,就需 Insect sterilants have been used for pest control and have evolved into a new class of chemical agents. For example, TEPA and apholate can control important pests such as weevil, pink bollworm and litura on cotton. Knipling’s theoretical and practical research shows that the use of contact chemistries is clearly superior to that of radiation-sterilizing methods, which does not require large-scale rearing and release of male sterile insects and is more effective than pesticides that kill insects directly For the superior. If 90% of the effectiveness of a pesticide, with 100 pests as a base, the surviving 10% of the pests continue mating breeding offspring, you need
