Molecular actions of pyrethroids on ion channels in the maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais
Previous studies on the mechanism of action of pyrethroids have confirmed that voltage-gated sodium channels (VGSC) in the axon membrane are the major target site of these compounds. The use of pyrethroids to control maize weevils, Sitophilus zeamais, a major pest of stored maize in Brazil, has led...
