Abstract
Summary: Resistance to endosulfan and pyrethroids in Helicoverpa armigera in Australia was shown to be due to multiple rather than cross resistance. The independence of the endosulfan and pyrethroid resistance mechanisms vindicates the sequential use of these two groups in Stages I and II of the insecticide resistance management strategy, respectively. Within the cyclodienes, greatest resistance occurred to dieldrin with lower order cross resistance to endosulfan and endrin. Male and female moths expressed cyclodiene resistance equally.Keywords
