Association of knockdown resistance mutations with pyrethroid resistance in Aedes aegypti, a major arbovirus vector in Cameroon
These findings provide evidence that metabolic and kdr resistance are both involved in A. aegypti resistance to insecticides in Cameroon. This should be considered when implementing arbovirus vector control strategies and insecticide resistance management in the country.
