Metabolic Resistance in Bed Bugs [PDF]
Blood-feeding insects have evolved resistance to various insecticides (organochlorines, pyrethroids, carbamates, etc.) through gene mutations and increased metabolism. Bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) are hematophagous ectoparasites that are poised to become

Diverse mechanisms associated with cyhalofop-butyl resistance in Chinese sprangletop (Leptochloa chinensis (L.) Nees): Characterization of target-site mutations and metabolic resistance-related genes in two resistant populations [PDF]
Resistance of Chinese sprangletop (Leptochloa chinensis (L.) Nees) to the herbicide cyhalofop-butyl has recently become a severe problem in rice cultivation. However, the molecular mechanisms of target-site resistance (TSR) in cyhalofop-butyl-resistant L.

Metabolic Resistance in Permethrin-Resistant Florida Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) [PDF]
Aedes aegypti is the principal mosquito vector for many arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) including dengue, chikungunya, and Zika. In the United States, excessive permethrin use has led to a high frequency of resistance in mosquitoes.
