• An overview of the main pathways of metabolic resistance in insects (2016, background): “Esterases can also sequester insecticides such that the toxic molecules are no longer available for interactions with target proteins (Devonshire and Moores, 1982; Oakeshott et al., 2005; Wheelock et al., 2005).”
• Overexpression of carboxylesterase gene associated with organophosphorous insecticide resistance in cotton aphids, Aphis gossypii (Glover) (2008, background): “Metabolic resistance may also occur through selection for and expression of mutant carboxylesterases [21].”
