The mutations (G228S, A391T and F439W) and duplication of the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) gene (Tuace) are involved in monocrotophos resistance in the two-spotted spider mites, Tetranychus urticae (Kwon et al., 2010a, b). The overexpression of T. urticae AChE (TuAChE) as a result of

Monocrotophos is a highly toxic organophosphorus pesticide that has been confirmed to be an endocrine-disrupting chemical. To evaluate the influence of this pollutant on the reproductive system of male fish, we studied the sex steroid levels, reproductive traits, sex ratio
Reviews of environmental contamination and toxicology, 139, 59-65 (1994-01-01)
Regarding the metabolic fate of monocrotophos, it appears that the mechanisms summarized below are largely independent of the animal species. Furthermore, significant sex dependency of any of these parameters has not been found. ABSORPTION: After oral administration to rats and

Monocrotophos is a water-soluble organophosphate insecticide with high oral and moderate dermal toxicity. The toxicologically relevant mode of action is the inhibition of ChE activities. The toxicity of organophosphate metabolites of monocrotophos is comparable with the parent compound. Glycol conjugation
Reviews of environmental contamination and toxicology, 139, 41-46 (1994-01-01)
Monocrotophos is an old product that is still very much appreciated as a low-cost and efficient insecticide. Due to its water solubility, formulation recipes are rather simple and no sophisticated equipment is required in a formulation plant. Formulations can easily
