Abstract:
Spinosyns are a class of insecticides with a broad range of action
against many insect pests belonging to different orders, noxious to a
wide variety of agricultural crops; spinosyns were also used against
insects of sanitary interest. Spinosyns are derivative of biological
active substances produced by soil Actinomycete Saccharopolyspora
spinosa; being of biological origin, they are considered to have a low
environmental impact and they are not much aggressive against nontarget
species. They act as allosteric activators of nicotinic acetylcholine
receptors; thanks to their mode of action the resistance phenomena
are uncommon, even few cases of resistance were recently
reported.
For all these reasons at present they are one of the most interesting
product to be used in fighting against agriculture pests.
