Quantitative trait loci mapping of genome regions controlling permethrin resistance in the mosquito Aedes aegypti.

The mosquitoAedes aegyptiis the principal vector of dengue and yellow fever flaviviruses. Permethrin is an insecticide used to suppress Ae. aegypti adult populations but metabolic and target site resistance to pyrethroids has evolved in many locations worldwide. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) contro...
