Abstract excerpt
House flies (Musca domestica L) are nuisances and vectors of pathogens between and among humans and livestock. Population suppression has been accomplished for decades with pyrethroids and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors, but recurrent selection has led to increased frequency of alleles conferring resistance to those two classes of active ingredients (Geden et al., 2021). A common mechanism of resistance...
