methods is of great concern. We investigated whether full coverage of long-lasting …

The primary reason for the failure of malaria vector control across endemic regions is the
widespread insecticide resistance observed in Anopheles vectors. The most dominant …

Background Insecticide resistance monitoring is essential to help national programmers to
implement more effective and sustainable malaria control strategies in endemic countries …

Inter-relationships among mosquito vectors, Plasmodium parasites, human ecology, and
biotic and abiotic factors, drive malaria risk. Specifically, rural landscapes shaped by human …

Background Pyrethroid insecticides, carbamate and organophosphate are the classes of
insecticides commonly used in agriculture for crop protection in Benin. Pyrethroids remain …

Background Insecticides are widely used to control malaria vectors and have significantly
contributed to the reduction of malaria-caused mortality. In addition, the same classes of …

Background This study aims to provide baseline data on the resistance status to
insecticides, the frequency of mechanisms involved and the impact of the association with …

There has been significant progress in malaria control in the last 2 decades, with a decline
in mortality and morbidity. However, these gains are jeopardised by insecticide resistance …
