Staggered larval time-to-hatch and insecticide resistance in the major malaria vector Anopheles gambiae S form
1 Dec 2010

BACKGROUND: Anopheles gambiae is a major vector of malaria in the West African region. Resistance to multiple insecticides has been recorded in An. gambiae S form in the Ahafo region of Ghana. A laboratory population (GAH) established using wild material from this locality has enabled a mechanistic characterization of each resistance phenotype as well as an analysis of another adaptive characteristic - staggered...
