Genetic and biochemical characterization of the cytochrome P450, CYP6P9, associated with pyrethroid resistance in the African malaria vector Anopheles funestus
Anopheles funestus Giles is a major vector of malaria in Africa and pyrethroid resistance observed in this species has disrupted malaria control in southern Africa. Metabolic detoxification, based on the overproduction of cytochrome P450s, specifically CYP6P9 and CYP6P13, was identified as the princ...
