This study examined changes in the proportions of ryanodine receptor mutations (G4946E and I4790K) for Plutella xylostella populations in the field. Results show that the proportion of G4946E decreased during the survey years without diamide application and that insects with I4790K were observed less frequently during the survey period. This study also examined the biotic performances of diamide-resistant P. xylostella strains. The results show that the diamide-resistant strains exhibited hatchability, larval development, and fecundity equivalent to those of diamide-susceptible strains.
