Frequency of the Val1016Ile mutation on the kdr gene in Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) in south Brazil

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Research, 2016
Recently, the number of Aedes aegypti foci has increased in west of Santa Catarina, south Brazil, which has increased concern regarding mosquito-borne disease outbreaks such as dengue fever, Zika virus, and chikungunya. Therefore, it is important to monitor genetic resistance to insecticides through "knockdown resistance".

Assessing pyrethroid resistance in Aedes aegypti from Cordoba Colombia: Implications of kdr mutations

open access: yesPLOS ONE
Resistance to insecticides is one of the great challenges that vector control programs must face. The constant use of pyrethroid-type insecticides worldwide has caused selection pressure in populations of the Aedes aegypti vector, which has promoted the emergence of resistant populations. The resistance mechanism to pyrethroid insecticides most studied

Presence of the knockdown resistance mutation, Vgsc-1014F in Anopheles gambiae and An. arabiensis in western Kenya

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2015
Introduction The voltage gated sodium channel mutation Vgsc-1014S (kdr-east) was first reported in Kenya in 2000 and has since been observed to occur at high frequencies in the local Anopheles gambiae s.s. population.

Status of DDT and pyrethroid resistance in Indian aedes Albopictus and absence of knockdown resistance (kdr) mutation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background & objectives: Aedes albopictus is one of the vectors for dengue and chikungunya and emergence of pyrethroid resistance in this species could be of a major concern in controlling the vector.

Schematic diagram showing the design of primers and probes of TaqMan method for molecular diagnosis of kdr mutations.

open access: yes, 2013
Solid and dashed lines represent exon and intron region of the para-sodium channel gene, respectively. Two TaqMan real-time PCR reactions are required in parallel for one specimen to differentiate TTT and TCA mutations in codon 1014. A: Primers (kdrF and

Sub-lethal insecticide exposure affects host biting efficiency of Kdr -resistant Anopheles gambiae

open access: yes, 2020
International audienceThe massive use of insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) has drastically changed the environment for malaria vector mosquitoes, challenging their host-seeking behaviour and biting success.
