Fitness studies of insecticide resistant strains: lessons learned and future directions

Pest Management Science, 2021
The evolution of insecticide resistance is generally thought to be associated with a fitness cost in the absence of insecticide exposure. However, it is not clear how these fitness costs manifest or how universal this phenomenon is.

A critical review on the potential impacts of neonicotinoid insecticide use: current knowledge of environmental fate, toxicity, and implications for human health

Environmental Science: Processes & Impacts, 2020
Neonicotinoid insecticides are widely used in both urban and agricultural settings around the world. Historically, neonicotinoid insecticides have been viewed as ideal replacements for more toxic compounds, like organophosphates, due in part to their ...

Insecticides

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2004
Organophosphate (OP) insecticide toxicity is the leading cause of major morbidity and death in the insecticides class. The clinical syndrome of OP toxicity varies widely, ranging from the classic cholinergic syndrome to flaccid paralysis and intractable seizures.

Past insecticide exposure reduces bee reproduction and population growth rate

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance Global insect declines are profoundly concerning, especially for groups like bees that provide important services to humanity. However, we do not know the extent to which recognized drivers of decline, like pesticides, may produce carryover ...

Insecticide Solvents: Interference with Insecticidal Action

Science, 1977
Several commercial solvent mixtures commonly used as insecticide carriers in spray formulations increase by more than threefold the microsomal N -demethylation of p -chloro N -methylaniline in midgut preparations of southern armyworm (Spodoptera eridania) larvae ...

Cytochrome P450-based metabolic insecticide resistance in Anopheles and Aedes mosquito vectors: Muddying the waters.

Pesticide Biochemistry and Physiology, 2020
Despite the substantial progress achieved in the characterization of cytochrome P450 (CYP) -based resistance mechanisms in mosquitoes, a number of questions remain unanswered. These include: (i) the regulation and physiology of resistance conferring CYPs;

Stored grain pest prevalence and insecticide resistance in Egyptian populations of the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) and the rice weevil Sitophilus oryzae (L.)

, 2020
As a consequence of the widespread use of insecticides against insect pests in grain warehouses and in the food industry, insecticide resistance has greatly increased among these species all over the world.
