Dieldrin insect GABA receptor

Resistance to DDT has been developed in many insect species. Although there are some cases of metabolic resistance (e.g., strains high in DDT dehydrochlorinase activity), particular interest has been focused on kdr and super kdr mechanisms based upon aberrant forms of the sodium channel—the principal target for DDT. There are many examples of insects developing resistance to dieldrin. The best-known mechanism is the production of mutant forms of the target site (GABA receptor), which are insensitive to the insecticide. [Pg.132]
