Table 2.
IC50 and selectivity ratio data obtained from six agriculturally relevant insect species AChE. Values for each inhibitor were tested for statistical differences across species, and those not labeled by the same lower case letter in that row represent significance at P < 0.05. Values for each species were tested for statistical differences across compounds, and those not labeled by the same upper case letter in that column represent significance at P < 0.05.
