Genetic differentiation in pesticide resistance between urban and rural populations of a nontarget freshwater keystone interactor, Daphnia magna [PDF]

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2021
There is growing evidence that urbanization drives adaptive evolution in response to thermal gradients. One such example is documented in the water flea Daphnia magna.

Recurrent mutations drive the rapid evolution of pesticide resistance in the two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae [PDF]

open access: yeseLife
The genetic basis of pesticide resistance has been widely studied, but the exact nature of this evolutionary process in the field is often unclear, particularly when a limited number of populations is considered and when there is a lag between the ...

resevol: An R package for spatially explicit models of pesticide resistance given evolving pest genomes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2023
The evolution of pesticide resistance is a widespread problem with potentially severe consequences for global food security. We introduce the resevol R package, which simulates individual-based models of pests with evolving genomes that produce complex ...

A Sex‐Specific Trade‐Off Between Pesticide Resistance and Tolerance to Heat‐Induced Sterility in Tetranychus urticae [PDF]

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications
Current pest management relies extensively on pesticide application worldwide, despite the frequent rise of pesticide resistance in crop pests. This is particularly worrisome because resistance is often not costly enough to be lost in populations after ...

Molecular Mechanism of the UDP-Glucuronosyltransferase 2B20-like Gene (AccUGT2B20-like) in Pesticide Resistance of Apis cerana cerana [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs), being multifunctional detoxification enzymes, play a major role in the process of resistance to various pesticides in insects. However, the mechanism underlying the molecular regulation of pesticide resistance remains

Do Sex Ratio Distorting Microbes Inhibit the Evolution of Pesticide Resistance? An Experimental Test [PDF]

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications
We are still largely reliant on pesticides for the suppression of arthropod pests which threaten human health and food production, but the recent rise of evolved resistance among important pest species has reduced pesticide efficacy.

Divergent mechanisms of active antibiotic resistance gene enrichment in soil driven by pesticide diversity [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Antimicrobial resistance is an escalating global threat, with soils serving as reservoirs and conduits for the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs).
