Larvicidal effect of chimeric inhibitors against L4 Ae. aegypti larvae, in 24 h and 48 h assays. a. Mutant T6/D1; b. Mutant T23/D1; c. Mutant T149/D1; d. D1 wild; e. Assay with combination of the mutants T6/D1, T23/D1 and T149/D1. The experiments were performed in triplicate using experimental group containing 15 larvae each. The larval mortality level of the inhibitors was significant increase when compared to control (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001 and ns-not significant, in Tukey’s Multiple Comparison Test). ANOVA (p ≤ 0.05) and Tukey's analysis were used for statistical analysis. Error bars correspond to the standard error of the mean of three experiments
