Peroxiredoxin alleviates the fitness costs of imidacloprid resistance in an insect pest of rice.
Chemical insecticides have been heavily employed as the most effective measure for control of agricultural and medical pests, but evolution of resistance by pests threatens the sustainability of this approach. Resistance-conferring mutations sometimes impose fitness costs, which may drive subsequent...
