Christopher M Jones, Antoine Sanou, Wamdaogo M Guelbeogo, N'Fale Sagnon, Paul C D Johnson, Hilary Ranson Malaria Journal 2012, 11:24 (23 January 2012) The main finding here is that older mosquitoes are more susceptible to insecticides. This has important implications for understanding the epidemiological impact of resistance in field-based vector control interventions.

Resistance was not correlated with a change of malaria species and/or molecular forms. The L1014S kdr allele was first identified in wild population of An. gambiae s.s and An. arabiensis hence confirming the expansion of pyrethroid resistance alleles in Africa.

Federica Santolamazza, Beniamino Caputo, Maria Calzetta, José L Vicente, Emiliano Mancini, Vincenzo Petrarca, João Pinto, Alessandra della Torre Malaria Journal 2011, 10:215 (2 August 2011) The results reveal that the PCR and PCR-RFLP approaches most commonly utilized to identify A. gambiae M and S forms are not fully interchangeable, as usually assumed. There are operational suggestions on the choice of the most convenient method for large-scale M- and S-form identification.

Cyrille Czeher, Rabiou Labbo, Ibrahim Arzika, Jean-Bernard Duchemin Malaria Journal 2008, 7:189 (25 September 2008) The results clearly indicate an increase in kdr frequency in the region over a three-year period, with suggestions that it may be attributable, directly or indirectly, to a large-scale LLIN programme.
