Polymorphic analysis of field collected aedes albopictus from Subang Bestari, Shah Alam based on internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) marker / Wan Zainab Wan Othman

The dramatic worldwide expansion of Aedes albopictus and its vector competence for numerous arboviruses especially dengue viruses (DENV) represent a growing threat to public health security. Being a secondary vector of DENV, the studies of Aedes albopictus is less focused unlike Aedes aegypti. The p...
