Neonicotinoids (NNIs) are neuro-active and systemic insecticides widely used to protect
crops from pest attack. During the last decades, there has been an increase concern about …

Neonicotinoid insecticides retain a crucial role within many chemical and integrated control
strategies for the tobacco whitefly, Bemisia tabaci Gennadius, in spite of the establishment of …

Insecticide resistance in pest populations is an increasing problem in both urban and rural
settings due to over-application of insecticides and lack of rotation among insecticidal …

In this work, we report a novel electrochemical sensor for sensitive determination of
Imidacloprid by facile electrodeposition of Ag nanodendrimers (AgNDs) on the graphene …

Most of the chemical insecticides are neurotoxic, acting on targets in the central nervous
system such as the membrane ion channels (DDT, pyrethroids), the enzyme …

This chapter describes the principal mechanisms of resistance that allow arthropods to
escape control, as discovered through laboratory toxicological and molecular genetic …

Several strains of Drosophila melanogaster possess mutant alleles in nicotinic acetylcholine
receptor (nAChR) subunits, Dα1 and Dβ2 that confer resistance to neonicotinoids such as …

Extensive use of imidacloprid for suppressing the brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens
(Stål)(Homoptera: Delphacidae), has placed heavy selection pressure on the target insect. A …

Sulfoxaflor [N-[methyloxido [1-[6-(trifluoromethyl)-3-pyridinyl] ethyl]-λ4-sulfanylidene]
cyanamide] is in development as the first product from the new sulfoximine class of insect …

The diversity of neonicotinoid insecticides acting as insect nicotinic acetylcholine (ACh)
