Abstract excerpt
Little has been known until now about the population genomic processes underpinning pest insect species' rapid and ongoing adaptation to chemical insecticides. This paper elucidates these processes for six mutations encoding resistances to four insecticide classes in Chinese Spodoptera exigua: F116V in CYP9A186 against avermectins, T929I and L1014F in VGSC against pyrethroids, V1848I in VGSC against indoxacarb...
