Molecular Mechanisms of Insecticide Resistance: Diversity among Insects (Acs Symposium Series)
Molecular Mechanisms of Insecticide Resistance Diversity among Insects - Acs Symposium Series Presents the most recent advances in understanding the molecular mechanisms by which insects acquire resistance to natural, synthetic, and bioengineered insecticides. Examines the major identified molecular mechanisms including gene amplification and changes in structural genes or gene expression that confer resistance. Also compares mechanisms ... more »among Diptera, Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Homoptera, and Orthoptera and summarizes biochemical and genetic strategies that can be used to delay the development of resistance to insect control agents for the future.« less
