β¦ Synopsis
Pymetrozine, a pyridine-azomethine, is a selective biocide against aphids, whiteΓies and plant hoppers with a high plant systemic activity. By means of bioassays and autoradiographic techniques it has been shown that this systemic behaviour originates not only from xylem but also from phloem mobility. After foliar application the growing points of plants are protected by pymetrozine imports mainly from leaves. This indicates a high importance of phloem mobility for the systemic activity of pymetrozine against plant-sucking insects.

The chloronicotinyl insecticide imidacloprid is widely used in soil application, seed treatment and as a foliar spray. Its systemic properties are well-known. It is more or less completely metabolised, depending on the method of application, plant species and time. Some of the metabolites that arise
