The voltage-gated sodium channel, para, limits Anopheles coluzzii vector competence in a microbiota dependent manner
Abstract The voltage-gated sodium channel, para, is a target of DDT and pyrethroid class insecticides. Single nucleotide mutations in para, called knockdown resistant or kdr, which contribute to resistance against DDT and pyrethroid insecticides, have been correlated with increased susceptibility of...
