Identifying permethrin resistance loci in malaria vectors by genetic mapping
Identification of the major loci responsible for insecticide resistance in malaria vectors would aid the development and implementation of effective resistance management strategies, which are urgently needed to tackle the growing threat posed by resistance to the limited insecticides available for malaria control. Genome-wide association studies in the major malaria vector, Anopheles gambiae, ...
متن کاملQuantitative trait loci mapping of genome regions controlling permethrin resistance in the mosquito Aedes aegypti.
The mosquito Aedes aegypti is the principal vector of dengue and yellow fever flaviviruses. Permethrin is an insecticide used to suppress Ae. aegypti adult populations but metabolic and target site resistance to pyrethroids has evolved in many locations worldwide. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling permethrin survival in Ae. aegypti were mapped in an F(3) advanced intercross line. Parent...
متن کاملAn overview and mapping of Malaria and its vectors in Iran
Introduction: In spite of public health level improvement in Iran, Malaria is still an important health problem in the southeast corner of the country. Mapping distribution of endemic diseases with their relations to geographical factors has become important for public health experts. This study was carried out to provide the distribution maps of the geographical pathology of Malaria in Iran wi...
متن کاملThe mapping of genetic loci affecting streptomycin resistance in Pneumococcus.
HE term “complex locus” implies a series of closely linked genetic deterTminants all of which produce similar or identical modifications in the phenotype of an organism. Much of the experimental work to be described is concerned with a series of this type conferring streptomycin resistance in Pneumococcus. BRYAN (1 961 ) has isolated spontaneous streptomycin-resistant mutants of Pneumococcus wh...
متن کاملMapping, genetic isolation, and characterization of genetic loci that determine resistance to atherosclerosis in C3H mice.
OBJECTIVE C3H/HeJ (C3H) mice are extremely resistant to atherosclerosis. To identify the genetic factors involved in lesion initiation, we studied a cross between C3H and the susceptible strain C57BL/6J (B6) on a hyperlipidemic (apolipoprotein E-null) background. METHODS AND RESULTS Whereas a previous cross in mice fed a Western diet for 16 weeks revealed a very complex inheritance pattern wi...
