Phenotypic and genotypic profile of pyrethroid resistance in populations of the mosquito Aedes aegypti from Goiânia, Central West Brazil

Abstract: Introduction:The mosquito Aedes aegypti has evolved resistance to pyrethroid insecticides. The present study evaluated Ae. aegypti from Goiânia for the resistant phenotype and for mutations associated with resistance. Methods: Insecticide dose-response bioassays were conducted on mosquitoes descended from fi eld-collected eggs, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to genotype 90 individuals at sites implicated in pyrethroid resistance. Results: All mosquito populations displayed high levels of resistan… Show more

“…14,15,[29][30][31][32][33][34] In the Americas, the co-occurrence of V1016I and F1534C has been found in the Caribbean Islands, Mexico, Brazil, Venezuela and the USA; in Africa, the co-occurrence of V1016I and F1534C in Ghana has been reported. 31,[35][36][37][38][39][40][41] In conclusion, we report here the co-occurrence of mutations V1016I and F1534C in populations of A. aegypti of the Colombian Caribbean region with variation in its allelic and genotypic frequencies. Although F1534C occurs more frequently in the populations studied compared to V1016I, the latter was correlated to resistance to pyrethroids in populations of A. aegypti of the Colombian Caribbean region.…”

“…However, the development of pyrethroid resistance is a major threat to the sustained use of pyrethroids in vector control. Historically, resistance has developed in Brazilian populations of disease-vector mosquitoes to a wide range of insecticides, including pyrethroids1622232425.…”

“…However, the V1016G mutation has not been reported in Latin America [31,32,46,47]. Instead, mutation V1016I was found, and often coexists with F1534C in South and North America, such as Venezuela [48], three French overseas territories [49], Brazil [50,51,52], Mexico [53], and the USA [54]. More recently, V1016I and F1534C were detected in Ghana, Africa [55], and a new mutation, T1520I, was found along with the F1534C mutation in a population in India [56].…”

“…So far, V1016G has been detected only in Southeast Asia [34,37,40,41,44,45], whereas V1016I is distributed in South and North America [48,49,50,51,52,53]. More recently, V1016G, along with F1534C, was also detected in Ghana.…”
