Abstract excerpt
Diamondback moth (DBM, Plutella xylostella) is the most significant pest of cruciferous vegetables as they rapidly develop high-level resistance to many insecticides. Monitoring DBM susceptibility and target-site mutation frequency is essential for pest control. In this study, 10 insecticides were tested on 11 field populations. Frequencies of target-site mutations (including para, ace1, Rdl1, RyR1, and nAChRα6...
