Journal ArticleDOI
Insecticide resistance in the major dengue vectors Aedes albopictus and Aedes aegypti
John Vontas,E. Kioulos,Nena Pavlidi,Evangelia Morou,A. Della Torre,Hilary Ranson,Hilary Ranson +6 more
TL;DR: The levels of resistance in Aedes albopictus is relatively low at present compared to Ae.
Journal ArticleDOI
A simple colorimetric assay for specific detection of glutathione-S transferase activity associated with DDT resistance in mosquitoes.
Evangelia Morou,Andrew J. Dowd,Shavanthi Rajatileka,Andrew Steven,Janet Hemingway,Hilary Ranson,Mark J. I. Paine,John Vontas +7 more
TL;DR: A novel colorimetric assay for the detection of Epsilon class Glutathione transferases (GST)-based DDT resistance in mosquito species, such as Aedes aegypti, the major vector of dengue and yellow fever worldwide is developed and validated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural model and functional characterization of the Bemisia tabaci CYP6CM1vQ, a cytochrome P450 associated with high levels of imidacloprid resistance.
Iris Karunker,Evangelia Morou,Evangelia Morou,Dimitra Nikou,Dimitra Nikou,Ralf Nauen,Rotem Sertchook,Bradley J. Stevenson,Mark J. I. Paine,Shai Morin,John Vontas,John Vontas +11 more
TL;DR: The data identify CYP6CM1vQ as a principle target for inhibitor design, aimed at inactivating insecticide-metabolizing P450s in natural insect pest populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Abamectin is metabolized by CYP392A16, a cytochrome P450 associated with high levels of acaricide resistance in Tetranychus urticae
Maria Riga,Dimitra Tsakireli,Aris Ilias,Evangelia Morou,Antonis Myridakis,Euripides G. Stephanou,Ralf Nauen,Wannes Dermauw,T. G. van Leeuwen,Mark J. I. Paine,John Vontas +10 more
TL;DR: Investigating a functional link between cytochrome P450-mediated metabolism and abamectin resistance found Luciferin-ME EGE was preferentially metabolized by CYP392A16, and it may be a potential diagnostic probe for metabolic resistance detection and monitoring.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current status of insecticide resistance in Q biotype Bemisia tabaci populations from Crete.
Emmanouil Roditakis,Maria Grispou,Evangelia Morou,Evangelia Morou,Jon Bent Kristoffersen,N. E. Roditakis,Ralf Nauen,John Vontas,Anastasia Tsagkarakou +8 more
TL;DR: Imidacloprid resistance seems less established and less persistent than alpha-cypermethrin resistance, and the low resistance levels for pirimiphos-methyl suggest absence of cross-resistance with other organophosphates or carbamates used.
