First report of classical knockdown resistance ( <i>kdr</i> ) mutation, L1014F, in human head louse <i>Pediculus humanus capitis</i> (Phthiraptera: Anoplura)
2022-05-14
Abstract excerpt
There are at least three known knockdown resistance ( kdr ) mutations reported globally in the human head louse Pediculus humanus capitis (Phthiraptera: Anoplura) that are associated with reduced sensitivity to pyrethroids. However, prevalence of kdr mutation is not known in the Indian subcontinent. To identify kd r mutations in the Indian population, the genomic region of the voltage-gated sodium channel gene...
