High‐throughput assays for detection of the F1534C mutation in the voltage‐gated sodium channel gene in permethrin‐resistant <i>Aedes aegypti</i> and the distribution of this mutation throughout Thailand

Abstract

These assays can be used for the rapid detection of the F1534C resistance mutation in A. aegypti populations. The F1534C, and other, mutations underlie an extremely high prevalence of pyrethroid resistance in Thailand.
