Abstract excerpt
Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus 1762) is a significant public health concern in both its native and invaded regions because of the transmission of arboviruses. Target-site mutations in the voltage-gated sodium channel (vgsc) gene, commonly referred to as knockdown resistance (kdr), represent the most extensively studied mechanism underlying pyrethroid resistance. Therefore, we aimed to assess possible pyrethroid and...
