BACKGROUND: Pyrethroid resistance has been well documented in Anopheles arabiensis, one of the major African
malaria vectors, and the predominant malaria vector in South Africa.
METHODS: In this study, the genetic basis ...
BACKGROUND: The use of insecticides to control malaria vectors is essential to reduce the prevalence of malaria
and as a result, the development of insecticide resistance in vector populations is of major concern. ...
Anopheles funestus is one of the major malaria vectors in southern Africa and several populations in this
region are resistant to pyrethroids. The current study uses a microarray based approach to identify genes
up-regulated ...
