Aedes albopictus Raw sequence reads. Aedes albopictus

To understand the current status and underlying mechanism of insecticide resistance in the Asian tiger mosquito in Beijing, the capital city of China. Bioassays were conducted on three field populations of Ae. albopictus collected from urban communities in Beijing by exposure to diagnostic doses of permethrin, deltamethrin, malathion and propoxur respectively. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with insecticide resistance were screened by transcriptomic analysis using Illumina RNA sequencing data (RNA-seq) from 12 independent RNA libraries constructed from females of the 3 field populations and 1 susceptible strain.
