Title: Some aspects of the inhibition of cytochrome oxidase by phosphine in susceptible and resistant strains of Rhyzopertha dominicia
Abstract: (1) Phosphine (0.1 mM) when added to preparations of mitochondria from susceptible or resistant R. dominica inhibits the cytochrome c oxidase activity by up to 90%. (2) Cytochrome oxidase activity in mitochondria or crude homogenates of R. dominica of either strain which have been treated in vivo with phosphine shows little effect. (3) Possible mechanisms of resistance are described in the light of this and other evidence.
