However, the selection for five generations increased the resistance to a very high level against buprofezin (127-fold), and to a high level against imidacloprid (86-fold) compared with the laboratory susceptible population.

Evaluation of Resistance Development in <i>Bemisia tabaci</i> Genn. (Homoptera: Aleyrodidae) in Cotton against Different Insecticides
