RDL mutations predict multiple insecticide resistance in Anopheles sinensis in Guangxi, China [PDF]
Background Anopheles sinensis is a major vector of malaria in China. The gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-gated chloride channel, encoded by the RDL (Resistant to dieldrin) gene, is the important target for insecticides of widely varied structures. The use
