15 Jun 2021
Abstract excerpt
Abstract This study describes the evolution of knockdown resistance (kdr) haplotypes in Aedes aegypti in response to pyrethroid insecticide use over the course of 18 years in Iquitos, Peru. Based on the duration and intensiveness of sampling (~10,000 samples), this is the most thorough study of kdr population genetics in Ae . aegypti to date within a city. We provide evidence for the direct connection between...
