Abstract
Malaria causes more than 300 million clinical cases and 665,000 deaths each year, and the majority of the mortality and
morbidity occurs in sub-Saharan Africa. Due to the lack of effective vaccines and wide-spread resistance to antimalarial
drugs, mosquito control is the primary method of malaria prevention and control. Currently, malaria vector control relies on
the use of insecticides, primarily pyrethroids. The extensive use of insecticides has imposed strong selection pressures for
resistance in the mosquito populations. Consequently, resistance to pyrethroids in Anopheles gambiae, the main malaria
vector in sub-Saharan Africa, has become a major obstacle for malaria control. A key element of resistance management is
the identi
