FORUM Insecticide Resistance and Dominance Levels
ABSTRACT Dominancehas been assessed indifferentways in insecticide resistance studies, based on three phenotypic traits: the insecticide concentration required to give a particular mortality (DLC), mortality at a particular insecticide dose (DML), and Þtness in treated areas (DWT). We propose a gene...

For instance, one assumption of the high dose/refuge strategy is that Bacillus thuringiensis resistance must be effec-tively recessive (i.e., DML must be close to zero). However, DWT, rather than DML, is relevant to the resistance management strategy.
