Effects of host plant and genetic background on the fitness costs of resistance to Bacillus thuringiensis.

Novel resistance to pathogens and pesticides is commonly associated with a fitness cost. However, measurements of the fitness costs of insecticide resistance have used diverse methods to control for genetic background and rarely assess the effects of environmental variation. Here, we explored how ge...
