TABLE II. Frequency of the V1016I knockdown resistance mutation in the populations of Madeira, Brazil and Venezuela analysed in this study.

Population Mosquitoes analysed (n) V/V a (n) V/I b (n) I/I c (n) I d (%)
Madeira 69 59 9 1 0.08

a : number of individuals homozygous for the susceptible-associated allele; b : number of heterozygous individuals; c : number of individuals homozygous for the resistant-associated allele; d : allele frequency for the resistant-associated allele. Of the total 131 individuals genotyped, 35 were confirmed by sequencing. I: isoleucine; V: valine.
