Abstract
WORK at the Ross Institute with Anopheles gambiae revealed that dieldrin resistance is due to an allele of a single gene. When tested with papers impregnated with a mineral oil solution of this insecticide, the heterozygotes for this allele can withstand 0.4 per cent dieldrin for 1 hr. and the homozygotes for this resistant allele can withstand 4.0 per cent dieldrin for 1 hr.
