Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Pyrethroid resistance in Anopheles gambiae s.l. compromises malaria vector control in sub-Saharan Africa. In Benin, resistance has been documented for over two decades, but the geographic distribution of emerging mutations such as N1575Y remains poorly characterized. This study investigated pyrethroid susceptibility, kdr mutations, and metabolic resistance mechanisms across twelve communes spanning a...
