Beijing: Science Press, v.3, 1999.c1999 ap.238 aThis study refers to the evaluation of a bacillus thuringiensis var. kustaki formulation (Btk) on the parasitism capacity and adult emergence of the nontarget egg parasite Hymenoptera Trichogramma pretiosum. The commercial product Dipel from Abbot Laboratorios do Brasil was used at two doses (recommended dosage RD - and inactivated recommended dosage - IDR), and distiled water as control (C). T. pretiosum was maintained and multiplied on the alternative host Anagasta kuehniella. The parasitism capacity was accomplished dipping A. kuehniella eggs in each of the age evaluation T. pretiosum eggs, already parasitized, were deep in the two dosages and the control, separately, and the averages of emergence percentage were larger for C than for the RD and IRD treatments, with no significant difference between RD and IRD. The negative effects detected could be attributed either to the ingridients of the formulation (that formed a physical barrier, covering the eggs) or to a subproduct generated during the inactivation process. aTrichogramma pretiosum aBacillus Thuringiensis aParasite insect1 aCAPALBO, D.
