Abstract
⺠Drosophila melanogaster is a useful in vivo model for investigating metabolism-based insecticide resistance. ⺠Transgenic expression of resistance genes from pest insects results in insecticide resistance in Drosophila. ⺠αE7 from Lucilia cuprina, GstE2 from Anopheles gambiae and Cyp6cm1 from Bemisia tabaci all confer resistance in Drosophila.
