Resistance to pirimiphos-methyl in West African <i>Anopheles</i> is spreading via duplication and introgression of the <i>Ace1</i> locus
2020-05-19
Abstract excerpt
Vector population control using insecticides is a key element of current strategies to prevent malaria transmission in Africa. The introduction of effective insecticides, such as the organophosphate pirimiphos-methyl, is essential to overcome the recurrent emergence of resistance driven by the highly diverse Anopheles genomes. Here, we use a population genomic approach to investigate the basis of pirimiphos-methy...
