Laboratory selection for and characteristics of pyrethroid resistance in the malaria vector <i>Anopheles funestus</i>
30 Aug 2005
Abstract excerpt
A laboratory colony of Anopheles funestus Giles (Diptera: Culicidae) was established in 2000 from material collected from southern Mozambique where pyrethroid resistance had been demonstrated in the wild population.
