Pirimiphos-methyl Resistance in Culex pipiens (Diptera: Culicidae) in Southern Tunisia
Author(s): Tabbabi Ahmed, Daaboub Jaber, Laamari Ali, Ben Cheikh Raja and Ben Cheikh Hassen
Pirimiphos-methyl is an organophosphorus insecticide having a fast action with less toxicity for humans and environment. The aim of this study was to investigate the pirimiphos-methyl resistance of three populations of Culex pipiens in southern Tunisia. Three Culex pipiens samples were collected in 3 localities (South east, south west, and extreme south) of southern Tunisia between March 2002 and October 2005. The susceptibility of the third population (extreme south) of Culex pipiens to pirimiphos-methyl was not considered due to control-level mortality. Both other studied samples were resistant to pirimiphos methyl and to propoxur. A significantly correlation was observed between the m... view more»
