Cereal Leaf Beetle (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) and Winter Wheat: Host Plant Resistance Relationships [PDF]
The cereal leaf beetle was introduced into North America from Europe prior to 1960. An overview of the control of the insect in North America is presented with major emphasis on host plant resistance.

Some Observations on Insecticide Resistance [PDF]
A model for development of resistance to an insecticide in an insect population is presented. The rate of development of resistance increased with increases in the proportion of the breeding population exposed to the insecticide and with increases in the

Developmental Regulation of Mi-Mediated Aphid Resistance Is Independent of Mi-1.2 Transcript Levels
Mi-1.2, a member of the intracellular, nucleotide-binding site-leucine-rich repeat family of resistance genes, confers resistance in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) against both root-feeding nematodes and leaf-feeding aphids.

CopE and TLR6 RNAi-mediated tomato resistance to western flower thrips
The western flower thrips (WFT; Frankliniella occidentalis) is a mesophyll cell feeder that damages many crops. Management of WFT is complex due to factors such as high fecundity, short reproduction time, ability to feed on a broad range of host plants ...

Dynamic Roles of Insect Carboxyl/Cholinesterases in Chemical Adaptation
Insects have evolved several intricate defense mechanisms to adapt to their chemical environment. Due to their versatile capabilities in hydrolytic biotransformation, insect carboxyl/cholinesterases (CCEs) play vital roles in the development of pesticide
