What is it about?

Synergistic role of different class of insecticides on target pest H. armigera has been reported earlier. However, little information is available on the effect of flubendiamide in insects. The present studies were undertaken to evaluate the different target sites of flubendiamide in H. armigera other than ryanodine receptors in insect muscle cells.
