Triflumuron Effects on the Physiology and Reproduction of Rhodnius prolixus Adult Females

Table 5

Evaluation of the continuous contact treatment with TFM on Rhodnius prolixus egg hatching. Petri dishes were prepared by applying Starycide to obtain final concentrations of 0.1–10 µL/cm² at the bottom of each plate. Controls received no Starycide. Freshly deposited eggs were then placed inside the Petri dishes. Values are means ± SD of at least three experiments with 10 eggs each.

Groups	Egg hatching (%)
Control	87 ± 7
0.1 µL/cm^2	ND
0.5 µL/cm^2	100
1 µL/cm^2	93 ± 3
10 µL/cm^2	87 ± 9
