ABSTRACT
Resistant strains of Culex quinquefasciatus were selected in the larval stage by exposure to sublethal doses of DDT. The size, body weight and fecundity of DDT-resistant mosquitoes were significantly decreased. There was no significant difference between the longevity of females in the original strain and the DDT selected strains, however, there was a significant difference in the males of the DDT-resistant strains than those of the original strain.
