Abstract Following mutagenesis with ethyl methanesulfonate, selection in a susceptible strain with a concentration of the insecticide diazinon (0.0004%, w/v) above that required to kill 100% of the susceptible strain, the LC100 of that strain, resulted in a single gene response. The resultant four mutant resistant strains have equivalent physiological, genetical and biochemical profiles to a diazinon-resistant strain derived from a natural population and homozygous for the Rop-1 allele. Modification of the microsomal esterase E3 is responsible for resistance in each case. The Rop-1 locus maps approximately 4.4 map units proximal to bu on chromosome IV. Selection within the susceptible distribution, at a concentration of diazinon [0.0001% (w/v)] less than the LC100, resulted in a similar phenotypic response irrespective of whether the base population had been mutagenized. The responses were polygenically based, unique to each selection line and independent of Rop-1. The relevance of the results to selection for insecticide resistance in laboratory and natural populations is discussed.

ABSTRACT The rdxA gene of 30 independently isolatedHelicobacter pylori strains was sequenced. A comparison of the rdxA sequences revealed a higher percentage of amino acid substitutions in the corresponding protein than in other housekeeping genes. Out of 122 point mutations, 41 were missense and 4 were nonsense. A resistant strain with a nucleotide insertion in therdxA sequence was also found. With the exception of the point mutations and the insertion generating a stop signal, no particular nucleotide mutation or amino acid substitution could be associated to metronidazole resistance. Moreover, phylogenetic analysis of the 30 nucleotide sequences did not demonstrate specific clusters associated with the resistance phenotype.

AbstractThe stability of spinosad resistance in western flower thrips (WFT),Frankliniella occidentalis(Pergande), populations with differing initial frequencies of resistance was studied in laboratory conditions. The stability of resistance was assessed in bimonthly residual bioassays in five populations with initial frequencies of 100, 75, 50, 25 and 0% of resistant individuals. There were no consistent changes in susceptibility of the susceptible strain after eight months without insecticide pressure. In the resistant strain, very highly resistant to spinosad (RF50>23,000-fold), resistance was maintained up to eight months without further exposure to spinosad. In the absence of any immigration of susceptible genes into the population, resistance was stable. In the case of the population with different initial frequency of resistant thrips, spinosad resistance declined significantly two months later in the absence of selection pressure. With successive generations, these strains did not change significantly in sensitivity. Spinosad resistance inF. occidentalisdeclined significantly in the absence of selection pressure and the presence of susceptible WFT. These results suggest that spinosad resistance probably is unstable under field conditions, primarily due to the immigration of susceptible WFT. Factors influencing stability or reversion of spinosad resistance are discussed.

Studies were conducted on the effect of 2,4-D and some related herbicides on a susceptible and a resistant strain of wild carrot (Daucus corota L.). When treated with 2,4-D, 4-(2,4-DB) or 4-(MCPB), plants of the susceptible strain died within a few weeks while those of die resistant strain recovered after showing severe injury symptoms. Treatment with 2,4,5-T or silvex killed both the susceptible and resistant strains.Seeds of the two strains, placed in various concentrations of 2,4-D, showed no differences in germination or radicle growth after 7 days. However, sprays of 2,4-D on seedlings just after emergence produced the differential response. Resistance appeared to develop between germination and the cotyledon stage of growth.There were no differences in the effect of 2,4-D on the respiration of whole tissue of the susceptible and resistant wild carrots.

Twenty-three strains of lactic acid streptococci were shown to be types ofStreptococcus cremorisorStr. lactisby cultural, biochemical and serological means. The antibiotics produced by thecremorisstrains could be differentiated readily from thelactisantibiotics, of which at least five different varieties are described. A cross-test and a resistant-strain test were used to differentiate the antibiotics.
