Abstract excerpt
The Drosophila melanogaster MD-RR strain contains an Rdl mutation (A301S) resulting in resistance to several insecticide classes viz. phenyl pyrazoles (e.g., fipronil), cyclodienes (e.g., dieldrin), and chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (e.g., lindane). Fitness costs are commonly observed with resistant insect populations as side effects of the genetic change conferring the resistant phenotype. Because of...
