The susceptibility status of Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) mosquitoes in Malaysia on pyrethroid and organophosphate insecticides with first detection of T1520I mutation.

Aedes aegypti, the primary vector of dengue, has developed widespread resistance to insecticides, posing a threat to the efficacy of vector control programs.
