Testing the unique amplification event and the worldwide migration hypothesis of insecticide resistance genes with sequence data.

Heredity - 1 Nov 1996

Guillemaud T, Rooker S, Pasteur N, Raymond M

Abstract excerpt

In the mosquito Culex pipiens, over-production of esterases is a common insecticide resistance mechanism. Different alleles at the esterase A and B loci are known to occur in natural populations, as shown by enzyme electrophoresis and RFLP studies on the esterase B locus. Here we analyse the variability of the esterase A locus at the nucleotide level in mosquitoes possessing or lacking over-produced esterase A. A...
