One of the main discoveries of a new study is the identification of new variants in genes associated with insecticide resistance in Anopheles mosquitoes, the primary vectors of malaria in West Africa, and potential novel resistance mechanisms, emphasizing the importance of genomic surveillance. Variations were observed in the voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC) and acetylcholinesterase (ACE1) genes, which are key targets for insecticides used in long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS).
