摘要： BACKGROUND The Asian citrus psyllid (ACP),Diaphorina citriKuwayama, is one of the most devastating pests in citrus orchards, and has caused huge economic losses worldwide. Chemical control is the most effective way for psyllid control. Herein, the toxicity of nine insecticides to ACP adults and the joint action of thiamethoxam + spirotetramat were determined by a topical application method in the laboratory; field plot experiments were conducted to evaluate the control efficacy of one self-made thiamethoxam + spirotetramat 40% suspension concentrate (SC) comparing with thiamethoxam 21% SC, spirotetramat 22.4% SC, tolfenpyrad 15% SC and bifenthrin 100 g/L emulsifiable concentrate against ACP using foliar sprays in 2018-2019. RESULTS The highest toxicity to ACP adults was achieved by beta-cyfulthrin, bifenthrin, thiamethoxam and acetamiprid, with median lethal doses of 0.247 to 1.382 ng/adult at 24 h after treatment. High toxicity was observed by chlorpyrifos, spirotetramat and tolfenpyrad, but moderate toxicity by pyriproxyfen and buprofezin. For mixutres of thiamethoxam and spirotetramat, a 25:15 mass ratio showed the highest synergistic effect, with a co-toxicity coefficient (CTC) of 246.52; while a 10:30 mass ratio exhibited an additive effect, with a CTC of 109.84. Thiamethoxam + spirotetramat 40% SC at 60-80 mg/kg can effectively control ACP with a control efficacy of 72.92 to 99.29% during 3-30 days. Moreover, foliar sprays of all tested insecticides at the tested rates had no phytotoxic effects on citrus trees. CONCLUSION A one-time foliar spray of thiamethoxam + spirotetramat 40% SC at 80 mg/kg could be recommended to control ACP during its infestation period in citrus groves.
