First detection of F1534C knockdown resistance mutation in Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) from Cameroon

ConclusionsThis study revealed the contrasting resistance profiles to insecticides ofAe. aegypti populations in Cameroon suggesting that, instead of a unique nationwide control approach, a regionally adapted strategy will be needed to control this vector. The localised distribution of the F1534Ckdr mutation supports this region-specific control strategy.
