TABLE 7.

Dominance resistance to Cry1Ac in the Melaka population of P. xylostella as a function of the concentration of Cry1Ac for single-pair hybrid F1 families

Population or families Characteristics of larvae at Cry1Ac concna of:
0.2 μg ml−1
1.0 μg ml−1
Mortality (%) Fitness hb Mortality (%) Fitness h
Cry1Ac-SEL 0 1 0 1
ROTH 100 0 100 0
Single-pair F1 families
 Cry1Ac-SEL female × ROTH male 35 0.65 0.65 70 0.30 0.30
 Cry1Ac-SEL female × ROTH male 43 0.57 0.57 65 0.35 0.35
 Cry1Ac-SEL female × ROTH male 40 0.60 0.60 70 0.30 0.30
 ROTH female × Cry1Ac-SEL male 73 0.27 0.27 95 0.05 0.05
 ROTH female × Cry1Ac-SEL male 93 0.07 0.07 100 0 0
a

Fitness is the survival rate of the larvae divided by the survival rate of Cry1Ac-SEL larvae. Estimates of dominance (h) can vary from 0 (completely recessive resistance) to 1 (completely dominant resistance).
