Early indicators of Bt resistance: Variation in Cry toxin susceptibility in field populations of Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) from India

Status of insecticide resistance and detoxification enzymes activity in pink bollworm, Pectinophora gossypiella (Saunders) populations from India

Insecticide bioassays conducted across major cotton-growing regions of India revealed a notable increase in LC50 values in field populations compared to the laboratory-susceptible strain, confirming reduced susceptibility and development of resistance.

Long-term monitoring of insecticide resistance in pink bollworm in Israeli pima cotton fields

SEASONAL INCIDENCE, FIELD SCREENING OF LOCAL LANDRACES, AND BIOCHEMICAL BASIS OF RESISTANCE IN RICE AGAINST PADDY EARHEAD BUG, LEPTOCORISA ORATORIUS (FABRICIUS) (HEMIPTERA: ALYDIDAE)

The paddy earhead bug, Leptocorisa oratorius (Fabricius) (Hemiptera: Alydidae), is a chronically destructive pest of rice (Oryza sativa L.) in India, with documented yield losses of 15–30% under moderate infestation and up to 80% under severe epidemics. A comprehensive investigation integrating seasonal population dyna...

Phenotypic Resistance to Public Health Insecticides in Field Populations of the Bed Bug, Cimex lectularius L. (Hemiptera: Cimicidae), from Kwara State, Nigeria

Insecticide resistance and target-site mutations in field populations of Tuta absoluta in China.

The results indicate that most populations remain susceptible to spinetoram, abamectin, and indoxacarb, supporting their continued effectiveness in field control and provide important guidance for optimizing insecticide rotation and resistance management strategies.

Insecticide Susceptibility and Toxicity against Pink Bollworm (Pectinophora gossypiella Saunders) Populations in Cotton

A laboratory study was conducted to evaluate the susceptibility of field populations of the pink bollworm, Pectinophora gossypiella (Saunders), collected from five major cotton-growing tehsils of Bharuch district, Gujarat, during the kharif seasons of 2024-25 and 2025-26. Populations from Amod, Bharuch, Jambusar, Netra...
