Development of insecticide resistance can result from various mechanisms: increased ability for insecticide detoxification, decreased penetration/transport, or modification of the insecticide’s target site. The target site mutation table provides a comprehensive list of established target site mutations associated with published cases of insecticide resistance. Also added is an up to date list of published references relating to the different MoA Groups….
Two new posters from the IRAC Public Health Team and a further poster from the IRAC MoA Team all relate to different aspects of resistance management in mosquitoes as vectors of malaria. Topics covered by the posters include a general overview of the importance of insect resistance management, the increasing importance of biomolecular techniques for resistance monitoring and the importance of MoA in IRM strategies. Links to the posters are given below: The importance of Insecticide Resistance Management in the…
IRAC España ha emitido una alerta sobre resistencias de Ceratitis capitata en cítricos. Desde hace varios años están descritos casos de resistencias de Ceratitis capitata a piretroides (MdA nº 3A), básicos en la estrategia de control de la mosca de la fruta en cítricos, tanto en trampas de captura masiva y/o técnicas de “atracción y muerte” como en cebo durante el periodo de cambio de color de la fruta. La colocación de trampas a inicio de campaña implica que la…
In 2010 the IRAC Oilseed Rape Working Group in collaboration with multiple researchers located around Europe, continued to monitor the susceptibility status of pollen beetle samples to pyrethroid insecticides. A summary of the findings from this survey can be found on our 2010 pollen beetle monitoring poster. In order to help monitor potential susceptibility changes to other insecticides, new methods for monitoring pollen beetle susceptibility to neonicotinoids and organophosphates have also been drafted and these can be found on…
