Research Abstract |
Receptors that play an inhibitory synaptic transmission in insect nervous systems are an important target for agrochemicals. In the present study, the significance of inhibitory glutamate receptors (iGluRs) as an agrochemical target was examined by comparing their tissue distribution, function, and pharmacological properties with those of γ-aminobutyric acid receptors (GABARs) from a variety of viewpoints. The results indicated that GABARs have more potential than iGluRs.
