Insecticide resistance and role in malaria transmission of Anopheles funestus populations from Zambia and Zimbabwe

Table 4 Resistance intensity assays of Anopheles funestus females by insecticide and strain/clade

Insecticide	Strain/clade	N (replicates)	Mean % knock-down (SE) after 8 hrs exposure
Deltamethrin	FANG	179 (7)	100
	FUZIM	192 (8)	56.9 (3.9)
	ZAMF C1	124 (5)	80.9 (6.4)
	ZAMF C2	156 (6)	67.2 (1.9)
Bendiocarb	FANG	113 (5)	100
	FUZIM	183 (9)	100
	ZAMF C1	100 (4)	100
	ZAMF C2	96 (4)	100
Lambda-cyhalothrin	FANG	18 (1)	100
	FUZIM	106 (4)	87.9 (3.1)

Mean percentage knock-downs after 8 hour exposures are shown with standard errors (SE) in parentheses where appropriate. FANG = insecticide susceptible laboratory strain; FUZIM = F1 progeny from wild-caught females from Zimbabwe; ZAMF C1 = F1 progeny from wild-caught clade I females from Zambia; ZAMF C2 = F1 progeny from wild-caught clade II females from Zambia; N = sample size with number of replicates in parentheses.
