Abstract
- New strategy to delay compensatory response mechanisms in polyphagous insects.
- Pacifastin-like inhibitor peptides inhibit digestive enzymes in desert locusts.
- Feeding pacifastin combinations impedes locust larvae growth.
- Pacifastin combinations are more effective than plant-derived inhibitors.
- Compensatory response mechanisms depend on dose/composition of inhibitor mixture.
