Meigen (Diptera: Culicidae) in Thrace, five mosquito populations were evaluated against the
resistance status of four different adulticides. Three biochemical resistance mechanisms and
yearly changes of activities were investigated. All the strains were highly resistant to DDT,
and all the strains were placed in the resistance surveillance category for malathion,
permethrin and deltamethrin in 2007. Although DDT mortality rates had increased from 2007 …
