Resistance status of Aedes albopictus
The majority of the data available for Ae. albopictus are from
simple WHO susceptibility assays (dose response or single diagnostic
dose bioassays) using insecticide impregnated papers or larvicide
standard assays. Historical data, up to 2008, has been
previously summarized in a review by Ranson et al. (2010) [6].
Here, we provide an update by presenting bioassay data extracted
from the most recent literature (2008–2012) but also include
selective data from each continent from the earlier literature.
New bioassay data from Ae. albopictus populations from Greece
and Italy are also included (Table 1).
