Insecticide resistance profiles of Anopheles gambiae s.l. in Togo and genetic mechanisms involved during 3-year survey: is there any need for resistance management?

摘要

BackgroundMalaria, one of the world’s greatest public health challenges, is an endemic disease with stable transmission in Togo. Combating malaria requires an effective vector control. This study provides temporal data on insecticide resistance status in the major malaria vector Anopheles gambiae sensu lato (s.l.) from Togo.
