Control of resistance

In Florida late in 1949 King ( 7) found that oil solutions of dieldrin, parathion, lindane, and toxaphene gave excellent control of resistant strains of larvae and that any of these insecticides would be effective substitutes for DDT. However, some of them are very toxic to animal life and must be used cautiously.

This approach should be used to enhance herbicide selectivity in crop varieties, to avoid carry-over injury, for specific and limited special problems, and for minor acreage and high value crops. A major objective of developing herbicide resistant crops should be to provide more flexibility in control of resistant weeds. 

New systemic soil insecticides (nematocides) which will give seasonal control of resistant insects as well as nematodes. 

A calibrated water tank was used to measure the water input to the steam generator. Both the water and inert gas rates were measured by rotometers. Heat input to the gas and water was maintained by voltage control of resistance elements in the heaters, permitting remote control of temperature levels. Thermocouples were located on all test components and interconnecting piping. Pertinent temperatures in the reaction vessel and gas streams were measured by iron-con-stantan thermocouples.
