Abstract
▪ Abstract In this article we consider the role of epidemiological factors and transmission processes of insect-vectored viruses on the effectiveness of insecticides in a disease management program. We also discuss the use of insecticides within the broader framework of the chemical environment surrounding vectors, and how chemical-induced alterations in the behavior of vectors can influence transmission. Our analysis confirms the belief of Heathcote, who stated in 1973, that “no one method of control is likely to keep crops entirely free from virus infection and as many preventative measures should be taken as are economically justified.”Keywords
