Assay development to monitor insecticide resistance in codling moth

Author: Stephen F. Garczynski

Published: 2010

Summary: The objectives of this project were: 1) Develop assays that determine the levels of enzymes that degrade pesticides. 2) Clone transcripts that encode known enzymes that confer insecticide resistance. 3) Clone transcripts that encode known targets of insecticides currently used in the orchard. 4) Develop assays to determine target mediated resistance.
