Evolution of Adaptive Variation in the Mosquito <i>Culex pipiens</i>: Multiple Independent Origins of Insecticide Resistance Mutations

Evolution of Adaptive Variation in the Mosquito <i>Culex pipiens</i>: Multiple Independent Origins of Insecticide Resistance Mutations

Insecticide resistance is an informative model for studying the appearance of adaptive traits. Simultaneously, understanding how many times resistance mutations originate is essential to design effective resistance management. In the mosquito <i>Culex pipiens</i>, target–site resistance...
