2010 journal article

Mechanism of resistance to spinosyn in the tobacco budworm, Heliothis virescens

Pesticide Biochemistry and Physiology, 96(1), 8–13.

By: R. Roe  n, H. Young n, T. Iwasa  n, C. Wyss n, C. Stumpf n, T. Sparks, G. Watson, J. Sheets, G. Thompson

topics (OpenAlex): Insect and Pesticide Research; Insect Pest Control Strategies; Insect Resistance and Genetics
TL;DR: Electrophysiological studies indicated that neurons from resistant insects have decreased sensitivity tospinosyn A, however, the reduced inward currents in the resistant strain may or may not be related to the mode of action of the spinosyns. (via Semantic Scholar)

2003 journal article

Biology and genetics of a laboratory strain of the tobacco budworm, Heliothis virescens (Lepidoptera : Noctuidae), highly resistant to spinosad

CROP PROTECTION, 22(2), 307–314.

By: C. Wyss n, H. Young n, J. Shukla n & R. Roe n 

author keywords: tobacco budworm; Heliothis virescens; spinosad; resistance
topics (OpenAlex): Insect Resistance and Genetics; Insect Pest Control Strategies; Insect-Plant Interactions and Control
TL;DR: Reciprocal single pair matings between the resistant and the parental strain and backcrosses of F 1 (R×S) females with resistant males indicated that a non-sex linked, (partially) recessive single gene was responsible for spinosad resistance. (via Semantic Scholar)
