    10. Current Dark Tobacco Research Experimental pesticide screening trials: Insecticides: Coragen (rynaxypyr, DuPont) Residual worm control Foliar and setter water applications Registration expected by 2010 Rimon (novaluron, Chemtura) Insect growth regulator, worm control Brigadier (prepack mixture of Capture/Admire, FMC) Worm and aphid control, foliar and setter water Generic formulations of Admire (imidicloprid) Alias 4F
