Evaluation of Knockdown Bioassay Methods to Assess Phosphine Resistance in the Red Flour Beetle, <i>Tribolium castaneum</i> (Herbst) (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae)
Resistance to the fumigant phosphine in <i>Tribolium castaneum</i> occurs worldwide. This study evaluated tests based on adult knockdown time, the time for a beetle to become immobile, when exposed to a high concentration of phosphine. We recorded knockdown times of beetles that remained...
