Dynamics of pyrethroid resistance in a üeld population of cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera) was demonstrated by continuous monitoring with twin discriminating dosages, and the inýuencing factors were also experimentally analysed. Resistance in a üeld population in China increased rapidly in the
Organophosphates are valuable insecticides used to control Helicoverpa armigera on cotton in Australia. Those most commonly used for Helicoverpa spp. control are profenofos, parathion-methyl and chlorpyrifos. However, there is an emerging organophosphate-resistance threat in Australian H. armigera,
## Abstract A cDNA clone coding for pheromone binding protein was isolated from the antennae of __Helicoverpa armigera__ by RT‐PCR and (5′/3′)‐RACE technique. The full‐length of __H. armigera__ pheromone binding protein (HarmPBP) was 952 bp, possessing 162 amino acid residues including a signal pep
A cDNA clone encoding a cytochrome P450 from H. armigera was used to examine the expression of two homologous cytochrome P450 mRNAs, one of which, CYP6B2, is probably involved in pyrethroid metabolism. The mRNA for CYP6B2 in particular can be induced up to tenfold by peppermint oil and the monoterpe
