A lignocellulosic composite material and a method for preparing the lignocellulosic composite material are disclosed. The composite material is formed from lignocellulosic particles and a binder resin. The binder resin comprises a polyisocyanate, at least one of insecticide and/or fungicide that are dispersed throughout the polyisocyanate. The insecticide and/or fungicide is also dispersed throughout the lignocellulosic particles. Since the insecticide and/or fungicide is dispersed throughout the composite material, the composite material is insect resistant and is able to withstand insect attacks and prevent fungus growth and decay.

Lignocellulosic composite material and method for preparing the same

A method of protecting a corn plant from destructive insects which comprises applying to the seed from which it grows or the soil from which the seed grows a composition comprising an insecticidal 1-arylpyrazole and an insect repellent. A composition comprising the insecticidal 1-arylpyrazole and the repellent.

Method of insect control

A method of increasing protein expression encoded by a foreign gene in plants which comprises treating a locus comprising the plant or the seed from which it grows with aldicarb. A method of controlling pests at a locus, which locus comprises a plant containing a gene which encodes for Bt endotoxin, the method comprising the application of aldicarb at the plant or at the seed from which it grows. A method of controlling weeds at a locus, which locus comprises a plant containing a foreign gene which encodes a protein imparting tolerance to an herbicide, wherein the herbicide is applied in locus to plant, the method comprising the application of aldicarb to the plant or to the seed from which it grows. A method of increasing the time during which an herbicide may be applied to an herbicide tolerant plant, which method comprises applying a systemic pesticide to the plant or to a seed from which it grows.

Method of increasing foreign protein expression

Compositions and methods for controlling the population of insects are disclosed. The compositions include a feeding stimulant for a particular insect, an effective amount of a 1-arylpyrazole or nicotinyl insecticide to kill an desired insect, at a concentration which is not typically toxic when applied to a plant in the absence of a feeding stimulant and the insect consumes an ordinary amount of toxin during the course of normal feeding, but is toxic when applied in conjunction with a feeding stimulant which causes the insect to consume more of the toxin than would normally be consumed during normal feeding. The use of normally non-toxic amounts of insecticides allows one to minimize the residual insecticide present on the crops. Also, by using a selective feeding stimulant along with a normally non-lethal concentration of insecticide, beneficial insects which are not attracted to the feeding stimulant are not effectively killed off, and detrimental insects which are attracted to the feeding stimulant are effectively killed off.
