Abstract
The inheritance of resistance to chlordane in the German cockroach,
Blattell germanica. (L.), was studied by determining the toxicity
of chlordane to the following strains of roaches: a) chlordane-resistant
and non-resistant strains, b)F1 and F2 progeny of reciprocal
crosses between two parental strains, c) progeny of pair
matings within resistant and non-resistant strains, and from a cross
between resistant females and non-resistant males.
