A mutation in the voltage-gated sodium channel gene associated with pyrethroid resistance in Latin American Aedes aegypti
Pyrethroids are commonly used as mosquito adulticides and evolution of resistance to these compounds is a major threat to public health. 'Knockdown resistance' to pyrethroids (kdr) is frequently caused by nonsynonymous mutations in the voltage-gated sodium channel transmembrane protein (pa...
