Detection of Di- and Tri-Locus <i>kdr</i> Mutations in <i>Aedes aegypti</i> and <i>Aedes albopictus</i> from Texas, USA, and the Implications for Insecticide Resistance

During the last 20 years, there has been increasing concern about inefficient vector control efforts due to insecticide resistance. A common mechanism causing insecticide resistance is mutational changes in the voltage-gated sodium channel, deemed knockdown resistance (<i>kdr</i>), resul...
