First molecular genotyping of voltage gated sodium channel alleles in Culex quinquefasciatus populations in Malaysia

mutation(s) in voltage gated sodium channel (kdr) gene of Culex quinquefasciatus from 14 residential areas across 13 states and a federal territory in Malaysia. Molecular genotyping of kdr mutation was performed via a modified three tubes allele-specific-polymerase chain reaction (AS-PCR) and direct sequencing of kdr gene. (MapVEu VBP0000208)
