Insecticide Resistance in Plutella xylostella L. XI. Resistance to Newly Introduced Insecticides in Taiwan

Abstract

The diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella, DBM) has developed resistances to almost all conventional insecticides, for example, carbamates, organophosphorus compounds, synthetic pyrethroids, and insect growth regulators. 小菜蛾對傳統殺蟲劑氨基甲酸鹽劑、有機磷劑、合成除蟲菊精劑及昆蟲生長調節劑等抗性之偵測研究已於1980~1990年間完成，並經田間測試減緩抗性發展之對策，以因應此一易發生抗藥性害蟲之防治。
