This study identifies a QTL and associated polymorphisms conferring resistance to alpha-cypermethrin in Anopheles funestus using genetic crosses and BSA mapping.

This study quantifies Asaia sp. infection in Anopheles mosquitoes from Cameroon and finds no correlation between Asaia and Plasmodium falciparum infection.

This study identifies two mutations in CYP6P4a and CYP6P4b genes driving pyrethroid resistance in Anopheles funestus and develops DNA-based assays to detect these mutations in West Africa.

This study identifies the E205D mutation in CYP6P3 as a driver of pyrethroid resistance in Anopheles gambiae, showing its association with resistance and its interaction with kdr mutations.

This study identifies a CYP9K1 haplotype associated with pyrethroid resistance in Anopheles funestus using multi-omics analysis and functional validation.

The paper identifies molecular drivers of insecticide resistance in Anopheles coluzzii populations across the Sahel region, highlighting key genes and chromosomal inversions associated with resistance to pyrethroids and other insecticides.

The paper analyzes genetic resistance markers in Plasmodium falciparum from malaria vectors in Cameroon to assess artemisinin and partner drug resistance.
