Mutations of acetylcholinesterase which confer insecticide resistance in Drosophila melanogaster populations

5 Feb 2004

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Organophosphate and carbamate insecticides irreversibly inhibit acetylcholinesterase causing death of insects. Resistance-modified acetylcholinesterases(AChEs) have been described in many insect species and sequencing of their genes allowed several point mutations to be described. However, their relative frequency and their cartography had not yet been addressed. RESULTS: To analyze the most frequent...
