Comparative DDT-susceptibility status as well as glutathione S-transferase activity and DDTase activity of Anopheles minimus (A), An. annuleris and Culex quinquefasciatus were investigated to ascertain the role of these enzymes in DDT-resistance. The standard WHO susceptibility test kits was used to...
