Evolutionary Aspects of Acaricide-Resistance Development in Spider Mites
Psyche: Journal of Entomology, 2009 Although the development of acaricide resistance in spider mites is a long-standing issue in agricultural fields, recent problems with acaricide resistance may be characterized by the development of complex- and/or multiresistance to acaricides in ...
