Abstract excerpt
The levels of one or more cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes and the respective mRNAs are found to be higher in insecticide-resistant insects than in susceptible insects. To understand better how insects regulate the levels of CYPs, we examined the expression of the Cyp6a2 gene in various strains of D...
