Assessing the effect of selection with deltamethrin on biological parameters and detoxifying enzymes in <scp><i>Aedes aegypti</i></scp> (L.)

Abstract

Alterations in life parameters could be due to the accumulation of noxious effects or deleterious genes related to detoxifying enzymes, specifically those coding for mixed-function oxidases, along with the presence of recessive alleles of the V1016I and F1534C mutations, associating deltamethrin resistance with fitness cost in Ae. aegypti. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry.
