Trend of temephos resistance in Aedes (Stegomyia) mosquitoes in Thailand during 2003-2005.

The diagnostic dose for temephos susceptibility test was established based on Aedes aegypti, the susceptible Bora (French Polynesia) strain, for practical and routine use. The diagnostic dose was subsequently used to evaluate the susceptibility/resistance status in F1 progenies of field-collected samples from Bangkok and various parts of Thailand. It appeared that Ae. aegypti mosquitoes of one ...
