| Abstract | Since 2004-2005 cotton expressing Cry1Ac and Cry2Ab insecticidal proteins from the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis has been commercially available in Australia to manage the target pests Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) and Helicoverpa punctigera (Wallengren). In both target species, the frequency of alleles conferring resistance to Cry2Ab is unexpectedly high in field populations. A significant challenge for managing these pests would occur if resistance to Cry2Ab toxins inadvertently selected for resistance to other insecticides used to control them. Dose-response bioassays were performed to measure the toxicity of currently registered insecticide sprays on isogenic strains of Cry2Ab-resistant and Cry2Ab-susceptible H. armigera and H. punctigera. Within-species comparisons of Cry2Ab-resistant and Cry2Ab-susceptible strains of H. armigera and H. punctigera indicate no cross-resistance with pyrethroid insecticides. Additionally, Cry2Ab-resistant strains were not cross-resistant to the following selective insecticides: indoxacarb, chlorantraniliprole, and avermectins. In both H. armigera and H. punctigera, Cry2Ab-resistant colonies exhibited a small, but significant, degree of enhanced susceptibility in response to chlorpyrifos and methomyl. We report higher tolerance to conventional insecticides in H. armigera compared with H. punctigera. Our results indicate that there is no significant interplay between Cry2Ab resistance frequencies in H. armigera and H. punctigera and frequencies of resistance to a range of insecticide sprays currently registered for cotton. Therefore, we conclude that any increases in frequencies of the common Cry2Ab resistance phenotypes identified in Australian populations of Helicoverpa spp. are unlikely to increase resistance risk for the indoxacarb, chlorantraniliprole, or avermectin classes of insecticide. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
