Abstract/Contents:Discusses pesticide resistance, highlighting potential resistance in white grubs. States that "the probability of development of resistance depends on the frequency of the resistance gene in any given population. The higher the resistance gene frequency, the more easily the resistance develops." Explains that "where widespread, repeated applications of the same insecticide are made over an extended period of time, insecticide resistance is possible." Suggests techniques that may help reduce the possibility of pesticide resistance, including "alternating among classes of insecticides"; "making target treatments rather than blanket or prophylatic sprays"; "using shorter residual insecticides"; and "selecting non-chemical methods of insect control."
