Mutation Frequency in Cypermethrin-Selected Aedes aegypti Across Generations

Han-Hsuan Chung published mutation frequency data for specific mutations (R52H, D126N, P162H, A532E, N868D) in the mosquito Aedes aegypti across three generations (G0, G3, G6) under cypermethrin selection pressure. The dataset is a 5.5 KB Excel file available on figshare under a CC-BY-4.0 license and was last updated in May 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze the evolution of insecticide resistance based on mutation frequency across generations
• Compare the prevalence of specific mutations (R52H, D126N, P162H, A532E, N868D) under selection pressure
• Model the relationship between cypermethrin exposure and genetic adaptation in Aedes aegypti populations

Strengths

• Dataset is openly licensed (CC-BY-4.0) for reuse.
• Data tracks mutation frequency across three distinct generations (G0, G3, G6).

Limitations

• The dataset is very small (5.5 KB), indicating limited scope.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
