In vitro, DIMBOA increased NADH-cytochrome c reductase and NADH oxidase activities and did not affect N-demethylase, O-demethylase, or glutathione S-transferase activities. Corn borers fed on a diet with DIMBOA increased levels of cytochrome b5, NADPH-cytochrome c reductase, NADH-cytochrome c reductase, NADH oxidase, and O-demethylase activities compared to those corn borers fed on a
