Functional roles of two novel P450 genes in the adaptability of Conogethes punctiferalis to three commonly used pesticides

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023
Introduction: Insect cytochrome P450 (CYP450) genes play important roles in the detoxification and metabolism of xenobiotics, such as plant allelochemicals, mycotoxins and pesticides. The polyphagous Conogethes punctiferalis is a serious economic pest of
