Determination of Permethrin Resistance Allele Frequency of Human Head Louse Populations by Quantitative Sequencing
2008-09-01
Abstract excerpt
A quantitative sequencing (QS) protocol that detects the frequencies of sodium channel mutations (M815I, T917I, and L920F) responsible for knockdown resistance in permethrin-resistant head lice (Pediculus humanus capitis De Geer) was tested as a population genotyping method for use as a preliminary resistance monitoring tool. Genomic DNA fragments of the sodium channel α-subunit gene that encompass the three mutat...
