Table 2.

Means (±SE) of fecundity, egg hatching, and longevity of flies surviving exposure to sub-lethal concentrations of spinosad.

Spinosad Concentration (ppm) ^a	Fecundity (No. Eggs/Female)	Egg Hatch ^b %	Longevity (Days) ^c
Spinosad Concentration (ppm) ^a	Fecundity (No. Eggs/Female)	Egg Hatch ^b %	Male	Female
Control	293.8 ± 17.1 ^a,d	93.7 ± 1.1 ^a	24.0 ± 1.0 ^a	28.6 ± 0.8 ^a
0.1	209.8 ± 11.8 ^b	88.3 ± 0.9 ^b	20.8 ± 0.9 ^b	23.0 ± 0.8 ^b
0.4	139.8 ± 9.3 ^c	82.5 ± 1.4 ^c	16.6 ± 0.5 ^c	19.0 ± 0.7 ^c

^a Spinosad was administered to flies only during the first 5 days of the experiment. From the sixth day on, flies were fed with just 30% sucrose solution, the same as the control. ^b Egg hatching was evaluated after 10, 15, and 20 days from adult emergence. Mean values are presented. ^c Days from adult emergence to adult death. ^d Means in each column followed by different letters are significantly different (ANOVA, Tukey test, p < 0.05).
