Research Abstract |
Recently, the first instance of resistance to a mating disruptant was documented in the smaller tea leafroller moth, Adoxophyes honmai. To investigate why and how the disruptant became inefficacious, we established highly resistant strain through further artificial selection. Consequently, the selected males could locate the pheromone source even lacking a main component normally indispensable for their attraction. Those males with behavioral or neural shift(s) are likely to overcome some effects of disruptant.
