The two-spotted spider mite(Tetranychus urticae)is one of the most well-known pesticide-resistant agricultural pests,with resistance often attributed to changes such as target-site mutations and detoxification activat...
Due to rapidly developed resistance,pest management relies less on pyrethroids to control economically damaging infestations of the tarnished plant bug(TPB),Lygus lineolaris(Palisot de Beauvois)in cotton fields of Mis...
Diaphorina citri is a global citrus pest.As a vector insect,it can transmit the causative agents of citrus huanglongbing,causing irreversible losses to the citrus industry.The acquisition of genomic information can pr...

Fungicides are used to control pathogenic fungi of crop species,but they have also been shown to alter behavioral,life history and fitness related traits of nontarget insects.Here,we tested the fungicide effects on fe...
We are grateful to Johanne Tietmeyer for generating the used pGEM-T plasmids containing TcABC-cDNA inserts.This work was supported by a grant from the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft(DFG Me2210/4-1).
ABC transporters have been suggested to be involved in insecticide detoxification in different insect species mainly based on the indirect observation of transcriptional upregulation of ABC gene expression in response...
