Determination of kdr mutations and COI sequences in Aedes aegypti populations
This study aims to identify knockdown resistance (kdr) mutations and analyze mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) sequences in Aedes aegypti populations. Samples were collected from both field populations and laboratory-reared populations, and were subjected to PCR amplification followed by Sanger sequencing. The resulting sequences were used to characterize genetic variation and detect known kdr mutations associated with insecticide resistance.
