Physiological Characterization of the Chitin Synthase A Gene Responsible for Biosynthesis of Cuticle Chitin in Culex Pipiens Pallens (Diptera: Culicidae)

2021-01-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> The pathogens transmitted by mosquitoes ( Culex pipiens pallens ) to humans and animals cause several emerging and resurgent infectious diseases. Increasing insecticide resistance requires rational action to control the target vector population. Chitin is indispensable for insect growth and development and absent from vertebrates and higher plants. Chitin synthase A (CHSA) represents a crucia...
