Understanding resistance and induced responses of insects to xenobiotics and insecticides in the age of “omics” and systems biology
BR Pittendrigh, VM Margam, KR Walters Jr… - Insect Resistance …, 2014 - Elsevier
We tend to think of the word resistance in terms of evolutionary changes in an insect
population that occur in response to repetitive exposures to pesticides or other xenobiotics
used to manage insect pests in crops, homes, and gardens, or on livestock or humans
(including disease vectors). Resistance can also be defined in broader terms since insects
are “resistant” to many naturally occurring abiotic and biotic factors they encounter in their
environment. In this chapter, we will outline the concepts associated with pesticide …
