Chemical Foundation of the Development of Resistance against Insecticides

Abstract

Resistance against insecticides may develop in an insect population as a result of the selection pressure from chemical-control agents so changing its genetic composition that the bulk of the population comes to consist of resistant genotypes. Such developed resistance, to one or more insecticide types, has now been proven in more than 270 species of insects and acarines. It is the chemical and physiological basis of such gene-determined resistance that is the subject of this chapter.
