Effects of deltamethrin exposure on the cytochrome P450 monooxygenases of Aedes albopictus ( Skuse ) larvae from a dengue‐endemic region of northern part of West Bengal, India

Abstract excerpt

Aedes albopictus is highly prevalent in the northern part of West Bengal and is considered to be responsible for the recent dengue outbreaks in this region. Control of this vector is largely relied on the use of synthetic pyrethroids, which can lead to the development of resistance. In the present study, larvae of three wild Ae. albopictus populations from the dengue-endemic regions were screened for deltamethrin...
