Modified formulas for calculation of the biological effectiveness and synergy of components of insecticidal combinations and an example of their application.
2022
In medicine, biology, toxicology, entomology and agricultural disciplines, four formulae for determining biological effectiveness are most often used: Abbott (Abbott), Henderson-Tilton (Henderson-Tilton), Schneider-Orelli (Schneider-Orelli) and San Shepard)formula. For integrated pest population management (IPM) in everyday agricultural practice, it is extremely important to evaluate the correlation between the results of laboratory and field tests. The present study discusses various modifications of the classic Abbott formula and their use to improve the accuracy and reliability of determining the biological effectiveness and degree of synergy of insecticide combinations.
