Overview of Insecticide Resistance
Abstract
The incidence of insecticide resistance continues to increase, having been recorded in at least 504 species of insects and mites, a 13% increase since 1984. In a number of species, the presence of multiple resistance has created a crisis situation due to lack of alternative, effective and affordable insecticides. Most of these cases concern pests in high intensity cropping systems or vectors of human disease that are subjected to organized control programs. Notable progress has been achieved in research on the biochemistry, molecular genetics and dynamics of resistance. These advances are discussed as they provide improved opportunities for designing control strategies aimed at forestalling or delaying the evolution of resistance.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
