Pest
Definition:
(n.) A fatal epidemic disease; a pestilence; specif., the plague.
(n.) Anything which resembles a pest; one who, or that which, is troublesome, noxious, mischievous, or destructive; a nuisance.
Example Sentences:
(1) In pest control operations, organophosphorus compounds (OP) have been sprayed as insecticides, blood cholinesterase (ChE) activities and urinary alkylphosphate levels were measured for both OP-sprayers (n = 102) and non-sprayers (n = 35) in pest control companies, and the relationship between the analytical results and spraying conditions was investigated.
(2) The main animal paramyxoviruses are parainfluenza 3 (agent of shipping fever) in cattle; NDV (cause of fowl pest) and Yucaipavirus in birds; Sendai and PVM in mice; Nariva virus in rodents; possibly bovinerespiratory syncytial virus; and SV5 and SV41 in monkeys.
(3) Problems that arise when chemical control of pests is applied--risks for producer, applier, consumer and the environment as well as development of resistance against pesticides--have led to the conclusion that other forms of pest control have to be searched for to guarantee production of sufficient crops in the future.
(4) Kairomones may prove useful in manipulating natural or released biological agents for more effective biological control of insect pests.
(5) In most ways they are model compounds for integrated control and pest management activities and thus merit greater attention than they have received to elucidate the fundamentals underlying their unusual properties and actions.
