Insecticide Resistance And Resistance Mechanisms In Cimex Hemipterus (Hemiptera: Cimicidae) And Their Susceptibility To Pyrethroid-Neonicotinoid Mixtures

Kai Dang , Stephen L. Doggett , Xin-Yeng Leong , G. Veera Singham and Chow-Yang Lee | Full Paper | 2022

The DDT, deltamethrin, and malathion susceptibilities of five tropical bed bug (Cimex hemipterus) strains, and their resistance mechanisms were investigated using synergism studies and detection of kdr mutations. All C. hemipterus strains showed high resistance to DDT and deltamethrin and moderate t...

Studies On Insecticide Resistance In Australian Bed Bugs, Cimex Spp. (Hemiptera: Cimicidae)

David G. Lilly , Kai Dang , Stephen L. Doggett and Cameron E. Webb | Full Paper | 2017

To investigate insecticide resistance in modern field populations of bed bugs in Australia, a program to collect and screen field specimens was initiated. Thirty-five bed bug strains (a mixture that included both C. lectularius and C. hemipterus) were collected from across Australian and subsequentl...

Detection Of Knockdown Resistance (Kdr) In Cimex Lectularius And Cimex Hemipterus (Hemiptera: Cimicidae)

Kai Dang , Cheryl S. Toi , David G. Lilly , Chow-Yang Lee , Richard Naylor , Apiwat Tawatsin , Usavadee Thavara , Wenjun Bu and Stephen L. Doggett | Full Paper | 2014

Worldwide, there are many reports of pyrethroid resistance in bed bugs (Cimex spp.). Previous studies on the Common bed bug, Cimex lectularius L., have identified two mutations (V419L and L925I) in the voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC) gene responsible for knockdown resistance (kdr). However, noth...
