Voltage-dependent Na<sup>+</sup>channels in pyrethroid-resistant<i>Culex pipiens</i>L mosquitoes
1999-09-16
Abstract excerpt
In some insect species, knockdown resistance (kdr) to pyrethroids and DDT is linked to point mutations in the sequence of the para-type voltage-dependent sodium channel gene. The effects of pyrethroids were assayed on six Culex pipiens strains: two were susceptible to pyrethroids and the four others displayed various levels of resistance, but, in each case, a kdr-type mechanism was strongly suggested. Degenerate p...
