[HTML][HTML] Most outdoor malaria transmission by behaviourally-resistant Anopheles arabiensis is mediated by mosquitoes that have previously been inside houses

GF Killeen, NJ Govella, DW Lwetoijera, FO Okumu - Malaria journal, 2016 - Springer
Background Anopheles arabiensis is stereotypical of diverse vectors that mediate residual
