Pyrethroid and etofenprox resistance in <em>Anopheles gambiae </em>and <em>Anopheles coluzzii </em>from vegetable farms in Yaounde, Cameroon:... (Publications)
Previous studies have indicated widespread insecticide resistance in malaria vector populations from Cameroon. However, the intensity of this resistance and underlying mechanisms are poorly known. Therefore
