摘要： The bean flower thrip Megalurothrips usitatus (Bagnall) is a severe pest on cowpeas and causes a 20-30% reduction in cowpeas in Hainan, China, with even complete crop failure in severe cases. Spinetoram is currently the most important pesticide against M. usitatus in cowpea production. In the main producing areas of cowpeas in Hainan, however, the efficacy of spinetoram against M. usitatus is not well known. In the present study, we employed the maximum dose bioassay to evaluate the efficacy of the mortality rates of adult thrips at F-0 in spinetoram, freshly collected from 212 field populations of M. usitatus collected from 20 villages in the Yazhou District of Hainan. Our results showed that the mortality rates of these thrip populations exposed to spinetoram were from 3.31% to 100%. Among them, the mortality rates of 66.98% (142/212) of the populations exceeded 80%, while that of 33.96% (72/212) of the populations surpassed 90%. Only a small proportion of 0.47% (1/212) the populations exhibited a mortality rate below 10%, and 4.72% (10/212) displayed rates below 50%. Furthermore, significant differences were also observed in the mortality rates of thrips among different villages. Taken together, the maximum dosage bioassay method is a rapid and easily implemented approach providing valuable insights into the field efficacy of insecticides and offers guidance in determining the optimal dosage required in the field. Spinetoram is still effective against M. usitatus in the main producing areas of cowpeas in Hainan, but caution should be exercised in its combined use with other methods to reduce potential resistance.
