Exploring mechanisms of multiple insecticide resistance in a population of the malaria vector Anopheles funestus in Benin.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2011

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The insecticide resistance status of the malaria vector Anopheles funestus and the underlying resistance mechanisms remain uncharacterised in many parts of Africa, notably in Benin, West Africa. To fill this gap in our knowledge, we assessed the susceptibility status of a population of this species in Pahou, Southern Benin and investigated the potential resistance mechanisms.
