Predicting insecticide resistance: mutagenesis, selection and response.
Strategies to manage resistance to a particular insecticide have usually been devised after resistance has evolved. If it were possible to predict likely resistance mechanisms to novel insecticides before they evolved in the field, it might be feasible to have programmes that manage susceptibility. With this approach in mind, single-gene variants of the Australian sheep blowfly, Lucilia cuprina...
متن کاملInsecticide Resistance and Resistance Management
J. Econ. Entomol. 88(5): 1113-1119 (1995) ABSTRACT Field and laboratory tests were done to determine effects of application technology, plant age, Bacillus thuringiensis (Berliner) subspecies, and rate of application on mortality of 2 populations of diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.). One population was susceptible (Geneva 88) and the other (Loxa b) was resistant to Bacillus tlwringiens...
متن کاملFacilitating Wolbachia introductions into mosquito populations through insecticide-resistance selection
Wolbachia infections are being introduced into mosquito vectors of human diseases following the discovery that they can block transmission of disease agents. This requires mosquitoes infected with the disease-blocking Wolbachia to successfully invade populations lacking the infection. While this process is facilitated by features of Wolbachia, particularly their ability to cause cytoplasmic inc...
متن کاملInsecticide Resistance
Insecticide resistance is an increasing problem faced by those who need insecticides to efficiently control medical, veterinary and agricultural insect pests. In many insects, the problem extends to all major groups of insecticides. Since the first case of DDT resistance in 1947, the incidence of resistance has increased annually at an alarming rate. It has been estimated that there are at leas...
متن کاملUse of Mutagenesis, Genetic Mapping and Next Generation Transcriptomics to Investigate Insecticide Resistance Mechanisms
Insecticide resistance is a worldwide problem with major impact on agriculture and human health. Understanding the underlying molecular mechanisms is crucial for the management of the phenomenon; however, this information often comes late with respect to the implementation of efficient counter-measures, particularly in the case of metabolism-based resistance mechanisms. We employed a genome-wid...
