Abstract:Insecticide resistance and behavioural adaptation of malaria mosquitoes affect the efficacy of longlasting insecticide nets -currently the main tool for malaria vector control. To develop and deploy complementary, efficient and cost-effective control interventions, a good understanding of the drivers of these physiological and behavioural traits is needed. In this data-mining exercise, we modelled a set of indicators of physiological resistance to insecticide (prevalence of three target-site mutations) and beh… Show more
