Abstract
The DDT resistance gene RDDT1, and the dieldrin resistance gene Rd1 have been mapped on linkage group II with respect to visible markers, in the mosquito Aedes aegypti L. The best interpretation of the data gives the order wa – Rd1 – ds – RDDT1 – s – y but wa – Rd1 – ds – y – s – RDDT1 is also possible, h is very loosely linked with RDDT1. The length of the linkage group has been considerably extended from previous studies.Keywords
