Reciprocal crosses between susceptible (SS) and resistant (RR) lines to fenvalerate were conducted to determine whether or not there are any genetic relationships between insecticide resistance and reduction in egg size, as well to whether or not they affect the offspring fitness of the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella. The dose-mortality regression lines of the F_1 hybrid of susceptible females and resistant males (SR) and resistant females and susceptible males (RS) were roughly intermediate between those of parental lines, i.e., SS and RR. This result indicates that the mode of inheritance of fenvalerate resistance was neither complete dominance nor recessive, with no sex-linkage. The egg size of RR lines was significantly smaller than that of the SS lines. The RS and SR lines have an egg size close to that of their own matrilineage. We considered that the mode of inheritance of resistance and that of egg size were different from each other, although the selection experiment showed that there is a negatively correlated response between these parameters. The survival rate of the RR lines was significantly lower than that of the SS lines. However, the survival rate of the RS lines did not differ from that of the SR lines. Reproductive fitness is discussed with regard to different egg sizes among parental lines and reciprocal crosses.
