Abstract
The rice stem borer, Chilo suppressalis (Walker) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), is one of the major pests in rice-growing areas. Its larvae feed on rice stems, causing symptoms of rice dead sheaths, dead hearts, and withered ears, resulting in heavy rice yield losses. Chemical insecticides remain the cornerstone of control strategies; however, the rapid development of resistance to multiple insecticide classes has emerged as a critical challenge to farmers and pest control specialists. Advanced methods utilizing molecular and gene sequence data from field-collected C. suppressalis populations, both resistant and susceptible, have provided a deeper understanding of the resistance mechanisms in this pest. Several components of Insecticide Resistance Management (IRM) programs serve as countermeasures to insecticide resistance in this pest. In the current review, we concentrate on insecticide resistance development, molecular mechanisms and resistance management of C. suppressalis.

期刊介绍:
Insects (ISSN 2075-4450) is an international, peer-reviewed open access journal of entomology published by MDPI online quarterly. It publishes reviews, research papers and communications related to the biology, physiology and the behavior of insects and arthropods. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files regarding the full details of the experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material.
