Insecticide mortality rates and species composition in ten <i>Anopheles gambiae</i> s.l. test populations from Burkina Faso collected in the 2010 rainy season.
<p>For each locality, pie charts (above) indicate the relative frequency of each taxon within <i>An. gambiae</i> s.l. (N = 30 specimens per locality, see text) and bar charts (below) show percentage mortality 24 hours after a 1-hour exposure to the diagnostic doses of insecticide (N = 100 per population). Mortality thresholds (98% and 80%, as recommended by WHO <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0048412#pone.0048412-World2" target="_blank">[48]</a>) are shown on each bar chart (horizontal black lines). nd = not determined.</p
Detoxifying enzyme activities in <i>An. gambiae</i> s.l. mosquitoes collected form ten localities in Burkina Faso (2010).
<p>A) Non-Specific α Esterase activity, B) Non-Specific β Esterase activity, C) Glutathione-S-Transferase (GST) activity, D) P450 activity. Stars denote significant difference in activity level when compared to the <i>An. gambiae</i> Kisumu reference strain.</p
Distribution of developmental time of the molecular forms in each habitat (by sex)

The box extends between the 25and the 75percentile (across the inter quartile range – IQR) and the median is denoted by a thick line. The whiskers extend up to the most extreme value, up to 1.5 times the IQR and values located over 2 IQR from the median are shown. The triangles extend from the mean (base) to 1 SD (tip)
Allelic and genotypic frequencies at the <i>kdr</i> locus in <i>An. gambiae</i> s.l. populations from sites in Burkina Faso (2010).
