Inheritance of larval resistance to permethrin in Aedes aegypti and association with sex ratio distortion and life history variation.

The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene - 1 Apr 1997

Mebrahtu Y B, Norem J, Taylor M

Abstract excerpt

The genetic mechanisms that confer larval permethrin resistance were investigated in two strains of Aedes aegypti, vectors of yellow fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever. Larval resistance to permethrin in an Ae. aegypti field-collected resistant Couva (R) strain was associated with the sex-determi...
