Determination of Resistance to Seven Insecticides in Plutella xylostella L. in Fields of Northern Hunan

The resistance of field populations of Plutella xylostella, from the three vegetable producing areas （Nianyuxu Town of Yueyang City, Canggang Town of Changde City and Shatou Town of Yiyang City） in northern Hunan, to seven insecticides was determined using leaf dipping method in door. The results showed that Plutella xylostella showed an extremely high-level resistance to beta-cypermethrin （resistance ratio, RR=257.13）, a high-level resistance to abamectin （RR=135.15） and indoxacarb （RR=103.08） and a moderate-level resistance to chlorfenapyr and emamectin benzoate. But Plutella xylostella is relatively sensitive to chlorantraniliprole and Bacillus thuringiensis （Bt）. Therefore, the prevention of Plutella xylostella in northern Hunan should focus on the alternative use of chlorfenapyr, emamectin benzoate, chlorantraniliprole and Bacillus thuringiensis and avoid the use of beta-cypermethrin so as to delay the generation and development of resistance to insecticides in Plutella xylostella.
