Abstract excerpt
The two most damaging biotypes of Bemisia tabaci, B and Q, are sympatric in the Mediterranean basin and show high resistance to pyrethroids synergized by organophosphates. Previous work showed that in the B biotype, this resistance is associated with the L925I mutation in the para-type voltage gated sodium channel. Here we identified two mutations in the para-type voltage gated sodium channel associated with...
