Point mutations in domain II of the voltage-gated sodium channel gene in deltamethrin-resistant Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae)
2010-01-01
Abstract excerpt
The continuous usage of pyrethroids against insects has provoked the emergence of insecticide resistance that has become a major obstacle to disease vector control. The knockdown resistance (kdr) voltage-gated sodium channel gene is regarded as a key to understanding the mechanism of resistance to pyrethroids. The main purpose of this study is to identify point mutations in the sodium channel gene associated with...
