01
Insect Resistance
The ability of certain insects to withstand insecticides or other control measures designed to manage them — how it arises, how it spreads, and how to detect it early.
What we study
Research
Understanding insecticide resistance — and developing practical solutions through innovative research and collaboration.
02
Molecular Detoxification
The biochemical and genetic processes by which insects metabolise and eliminate toxic compounds — the enzymatic machinery that often underlies resistance.
03
Resistance Management
Strategies that prolong the effectiveness of pest-control tools, balancing crop protection with environmental and economic sustainability.
