Implicating ABC Transporters in Insecticide Resistance: Research Strategies and a Decision Framework
30 Jan 2017
Abstract excerpt
Pest insects damage crops, transmit diseases, and are household nuisances. Historically, they have been controlled with insecticides, but overuse often leads to resistance to one or more of these chemicals. Insects gain resistance to insecticides through behavioral, metabolic, genetic, and physical mechanisms.
