Arab Journal of Plant Protection, 41(2): 183-189. https://doi.org/10.22268/AJPP-41.2.183189 Codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L.) is a key pest of global importance that affects apple fruit production and its populations have developed resistance to insecticides in many apple production areas. Third-instar larvae of Cydia pomonella has developed a vigor tolerance to deltamethrin in the fields of As-Suwayda Governorate, Syria. The resistance rate (RR) was (5, 5.6, 6.79) after (24, 48, 72) hours after treatment with deltamethrin, respectively, while ultra-vigor tolerance was observed in the non-diapausing fifth-instar larvae of codling moth (males and females), the resistance rate (RR) was (6.42, 7.75, 9.67) for males and (8.49, 9.84, 10.26) for females after (24, 48, 72) hours, 188 مجلة وقاية النبات العربية، مجلد ،41 عدد 2 ) 2023( respectively, It was noted that females of the non-diapausing fifth-instar larvae was more resistant than males. Based on the results, it is recommended to exclude deltamethrin for a while, using it with other insecticides, not re-using it many times or mixing it with one of the synergists.
