Mutations of acetylcholinesterase which confer insecticide resistance in <it>Drosophila melanogaster </it>populations
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Organophosphate and carbamate insecticides irreversibly inhibit acetylcholinesterase causing death of insects. Resistance-modified acetylcholinesterases(AChEs) have been described in many insect species and sequencing of their genes...
