Abstract excerpt
Neurophysiological recordings were employed to quantify neuronal sensitivity to neurotoxic insecticides and assessed toxicity across field and laboratory fall armyworm (FAW) populations. Topical toxicity resistance ratios (RR) in field-collected FAW was 767-fold compared to laboratory strains and, importantly, a 1750-fold reduction in potency was observed for λ-cyhalothrin in neurophysiological assays. Field...
