Overview

Randomized trial assesses insecticide resistance and mutations in house flies from Turkey, indicating urgent management needs.

Key Points

  • This study aims to evaluate insecticide resistance levels and identify target-site mutations in house fly populations in Turkey.
  • Conducted toxicity bioassays on five strains from slaughterhouses using the feeding method.
  • Screened 35 samples from various locations for target-site mutations in VGSC and AChE genes.
  • Performed in silico docking of bendiocarb on AChE to analyze functional impact.
  • Thiamethoxam showed variable susceptibility, while fipronil was most effective against house flies.
  • Identified high prevalence of T929I, L1014F mutations in VGSC, and mutations in AChE affecting insecticide targets.
  • L1014H and G342V mutations were specific to slaughterhouse samples, suggesting local selection pressures.
