The cuticle proteins: a putative role for deltamethrin resistance in Culex pipiens pallens

Insecticide resistance has been a major public health challenge. It is impendent to study the mechanism on insecticide resistance. In our previous study, 14 differentially accumulated insect cuticle proteins (ICPs) based on insecticide resistance proteomes and transcriptomes were found in the deltamethrin-resistant (DR) and -susceptible (DS) strains of Culex pipiens pallens. To investigate if these ICPs are associated with deltamethrin...
