Evidence for multiple-insecticide resistance in urban Aedes albopictus populations in southern China

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2018
Aedes albopictus (Skuse) is an invasive mosquito that has become an important vector of chikungunya, dengue and Zika viruses. In the absence of specific antiviral therapy or a vaccine, vector management is the sole method available for reducing Aedes ...
