Baseline and Resistance Monitoring Program for CPB
Supported by Bayer CropSciences, Dow AgroSciences, and BASF
Baseline susceptibility levels to imidacloprid.
158 populations assayed during 1995-98 from potato
productions areas in the U.S., Canada, and Europe.
Follow-up monitoring to detect shifts in susceptibility.
167 populations assayed during 2001, 2003-06, many from
farms reporting reduced field performance of imidacloprid
Bioassays to examine cross-resistance relationships.
60 and 82 populations tested for thiamethoxam and spinosad
susceptibility, respectively.
Beetles collected by University cooperators and industry field personnel.
Field history information provided by grower questionnaire.
Reared in field or lab cages on potato plants.
Eggs collected and hatched to provide neonates for bioassays.
Susceptibility determined by exposing first instar larvae to a
potato-based agar diet.
Neonates are fed for 5 hr before exposure.
Full series of insecticide concentrations.
120-150 larvae are tested per concentration.
Mortality recorded after 48 hrs.
Concentration-mortality responses
and LC50 determined by probit analysis.
NJ reference colony used as a
reference population.

Conclusions from Baseline and Resistance Monitoring Work
CPB has developed significant resistance to imidacloprid since its introduction
and field control failures are becoming commonplace.
Resistance management practices have slowed the rate of resistance in certain
areas.
Baseline susceptibility to imidacloprid has not changed significantly in potato
production areas with low population pressure.
Thiamethoxam and acetamiprid are cross-resistant to imidacloprid, thus
switching to these neonicotinoids will not help to slow resistance.
Several farms have reported fair to poor control with thiamethoxam and
bioassay results confirm detectable shifts in susceptibility.
No consistent positive association between levels of susceptibility to spinosad
and imidacloprid. Most growers still report good field efficacy with spinosad on
farms where it has been previously used.
Low variation in dose-mortality responses to metaflumizone.
Most populations are still susceptible to neonicotinoids.

Belongs in the semi-carbizone class of chemistry. Provide
excellent control of CPB.
Take-Home Message
Neonicotinoid insecticides are still the most effective and
reliable chemical option, but this may not be the case for very
long.
Must be deployed in a resistance management program that
includes other practices to minimize selection pressure.
Crop rotation, perimeter treatments, scouting and use of
treatment thresholds, rotation of modes of action
Plan crop and insecticide rotation schemes in cooperation with
neighboring potato growers to reduce population build-up of
resistant insects at the community level.
