Resistance selection of indoxacarb in Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae): cross-resistance, biochemical mechanisms and associated fitness costs.

Evidence from this study suggests that decreased susceptibility to indoxacarb may be associated with fitness costs in H. armigera and enhanced activities of P450 and CarE may be important detoxification mechanisms in the development of indoxacarb resistance. Methoxyfenozide and abamectin can be rotationally used to manage indoxacarb resistance. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.
