Genetic analysis of resistance to azinphosmethyl in the pear psylla Cacopsylla pyri
2000
Bues, R. | Toubon, J.F. | Boudinhon, L.
Laboratory selection with azinphosmethyl had little effect on the chemical resistance in Cacopsylla pyri strains, in comparison to the original wild populations. The resistance ratio relative to susceptible strain varied from 10-to 40-fold depending on the generation studied. Crosses between two resistant strains and the susceptible strain show resistance to be autosomally inherited and semi-dominant in expression. Backcrosses between F1 and the susceptible strain were unable to distinguish unabigously between monogenic and polygenic inheritance. In the majority of experiments, however, the overall dose-response relationship for backcross progeny was consistent with a single gene hypothesis. Additional bioassays showed azinphosmethyl-resistant strain to cross-resistant monocrotophos and phosmet, but not carbamates, pyrethroids, amitraz or the organophosphates chlorpyrifos and mevinphos.
