Given the inherent ability of insects to develop resistance, it is essential to propose innovative strategies because insecticides remain the most important element of integrated approaches to vector control. Recently, intracellular phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of membrane receptors and ion channels targeted by insecticides have been described as new processes for increasing the sensitivity of insecticides. An efficient method might be to infect host insects with recombinant viruses overexpressing specific protein phosphatases/kinases known to regulate specific insecticide-sensitive targets. This attractive strategy could lead to sensitization of the insects, thus reducing the doses of insecticides and increasing the efficacy of treatments. specialized 052 27 4 190-198 2009 0167-7799 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010046004 10.1016/j.tibtech.2008.12.005 0167-7799 [F B010046004] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010046004 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/intranet/publi/2009/04/010046004.pdf Accès réservé (Intranet de l'IRD) IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2009-05-13 2021-06-13 fdi:010046004 fre
