Animation Summary —The animation illustrates how insects develop insecticide resistance using inhibitors of the synaptic enzyme acetylcholinesterase, as a model.  The animation shows how a mutation in the structure of the target-enzyme makes the enzyme non-responsive to the insecticide.  It also shows how populations become resistant to insecticides, and how this can be counteracted using an insecticide with a different mode of action.  The animation discusses how the resistance mutation is often less competitive that the normal enzyme, and how resistant populations can revert to susceptible populations if the insecticide pressure is removed. 

This animation is part of the Neurotoxic Insecticide animation tutorial, but is offered separately for instructors that want to focus on insecticide resistance.
