Abstract:
The toxicity of cypermethrin was determined in five
different soft tick strains of Argas persicus Oken and Ornithodoros
lahorensis Neuman by topical application method. The O.
lahorensis Bij, O. lahorensis west Ol, O.
lahorensis Mesh, A. persicus Lor, A. persicus
West Ap strains were collected from Bijar, Kurdistan province, Takab,
Western Azerbaijan province, Meshkinshar, Ardebil province, Khoramabad,
Lorestan province, Takab, Western Azerbaijan province of different areas
of Islamic Republic of Iran, respectively during 2004 and 2005. In the
topical application bioassay, the average LD50 of O.
lahorensis Bij, West Ol, Mesh and A. reflexus Lor and
West AP strains were 0.03, 0.04, 1.7, 0.7 and 1.7 μg tick-1,
respectively and the steep slopes of dose-response curves indicated that
the field population of these soft tick strains were homogenous in response
to cypermethrin. Comparison of the resistance ratio of collected strains
with susceptible strain showed a resistance ratio of 56.7 and 2.4-folds
for cypermethrin in O. lahorensis Mesh and A. reflexus
West Ap strains, whereas the O. lahorensis West Ol completely
susceptible to cypermethrin.
