This paper identifies genomic loci and mutations associated with DDT metabolic resistance in Anopheles gambiae using bulk segregant analysis and confirms their selection in natural populations.

This study assesses the effects of PBO exposure on Anopheles mosquito longevity and behavior, finding altered blood feeding and attraction to host odors.

This study assesses cross-resistance to transfluthrin in mosquitoes, showing resistance mechanisms reduce its efficacy in vector control.

This study identifies loci and mutations associated with pyrethroid resistance in Anopheles gambiae species complex using multi-omics data and finds potential diagnostic markers and introgression between species.

This study analyzes genetic data from a mosquito control trial to assess if vector control impacts population structure, finding no significant genetic changes despite reduced vector density.

The paper models how adult mosquito emergence affects age distribution and surveillance metrics, showing emergence variability drives age structure heterogeneity.

The paper uses explainable AI to distinguish between insecticide-resistant and susceptible Anopheles gambiae strains based on flight trajectory analysis.

This study uses machine learning to analyze mosquito flight behavior around insecticide-treated nets, finding immediate disruption in flight patterns regardless of insecticide resistance.

This study integrates whole genome sequencing and transcriptomics to identify multiple factors contributing to insecticide resistance in Anopheles coluzzii.

This study functionally validates the L1014F kdr mutation's role in pyrethroid resistance in Anopheles gambiae and shows its interaction with detoxification enzymes.

This study shows sub-lethal pyrethroid exposure and ageing cause significant transcriptome changes in Anopheles coluzzii, affecting metabolism and insecticide resistance-related genes.

This paper functionally validates three genes associated with insecticide resistance in Anopheles gambiae by overexpressing them in transgenic mosquitoes and showing their role in resistance to different insecticide classes.
