Melting curve of the vgsc gene fragments obtained with SYBR Green real-time PCR assay in studied samples of bed bugs. a Fragments with position 918, b Fragments with position 1014, (RR) mutant type of C. hemipterus, (SS) C. lectularius Kh1 strain without mutation in 918 and 1014 loci and similar with the domain IIS1–S6 of common bed bug (Accession No FJ031996). The violet curves and baselines represent the positive control (reference sequences of C. hemipterus and C. lectularius) and negative control, respectively. The curves on the right side of the plots, marked with SS, are common bed bug specimens and the curves on the left side of the plots, marked with RR, are samples of tropical bed bugs
