Transcriptome profiling reveals potential core genes involved in metabolic detoxification of malathion in Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus

To compare different differential expression profile between malathion resistant and susceptible Ae. albopictus in Harris County and to identify candidate genes involved in matabolic detoxification of malathion We compared different gene expression patterns in both comparisons between malathion resistant (MR) versus malathion susceptible (MS) group, and between field collected Ae. albopictus that were not exposed to malathion (WI) versus a laboratory-maintained susceptible Sebring strain (CO)
