Insecticide resistance threatens recent progress on malaria control in Africa. To characterize pyrethroid resistance in Uganda, Anopheles gambiae (s.s.) and Anopheles arabiensis were analyzed from 11 sites with varied vector control strategies. Mosquito larvae were collected between May 2018 and Dec...
