  "summary": "The spread of insecticide resistance in malaria vectors poses a major challenge to control programs. As insecticide-based interventions intensify, selection for resistance alleles increases, making it essential to understand the genetic mechanisms underlying resistance in local Anopheles populations. This study characterized target-site resistance mutations and copy number variants (CNVs) in…",
