Larval density mediates knockdown resistance to pyrethroid insecticides in adult Aedes aegypti

Abstract Background Understanding mechanisms driving insecticide resistance in vector populations remains a public health priority. To date, most research has focused on the genetic mechanisms underpinning resistance, yet it is unclear what role environmental drivers may play in shaping phenotypic e...
