HYBRIDIZATION BETWEEN ANOPHELES CRUCIANS AND ANOPHELES BRADLEYI [PDF]

Evolution, 1971
In the southeastern United States there exists the so-called crucians complex which consists of three species of the genus Anopheles: crucians, bradleyi and georgianus. They are morphologically very similar, and may be separated with certainty only as fourth instar larvae.

Advanced Techniques to Control Mosquitoes and their Disease Transmission: A Review

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology
Mosquitoes transmit life-threatening diseases to humans. The conventional mosquito control techniques that have been focused on population reduction by the application of insecticides or through source reduction by removing the larval habitat have become

Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles arabiensis population densities and infectivity in Kopere village, Western Kenya

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2012
Introduction: This study was conducted in a sugar belt region of western Kenya interfacing epidemic and endemic malaria transmission. We investigated Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto (ss) and Anopheles arabiensis species compositions and densities, human

Naturally acquired antibodies to gametocyte antigens are associated with reduced transmission of Plasmodium vivax gametocytes to Anopheles arabiensis mosquitoes

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
Naturally acquired antibodies may reduce the transmission of Plasmodium gametocytes to mosquitoes. Here, we investigated associations between antibody prevalence and P. vivax infectivity to mosquitoes. A total of 368 microscopy confirmed P.

In silico karyotyping of chromosomally polymorphic malaria mosquitoes in the Anopheles gambiae complex [PDF]

, 2019
Chromosomal inversion polymorphisms play an important role in adaptation to environmental heterogeneities. For mosquito species in the Anopheles gambiae complex that are significant vectors of human malaria, paracentric inversion polymorphisms are ...

Adult-capture assays as a tool to measure insecticide resistance in Anopheles malaria vectors: a modeling comparison with larval-capture assays

Frontiers in Malaria
Systematic, long-term, and spatially representative monitoring of insecticide resistance in mosquito populations is urgently needed to quantify its impact on malaria transmission, and to combat failing interventions when resistance emerges.

Change in Composition of the Anopheles Gambiae Complex and its Possible Implications for the Transmission of Malaria and Lymphatic Filariasis in North-Eastern Tanzania. [PDF]

, 2012
A dramatic decline in the incidence of malaria due to Plasmodium falciparum infection in coastal East Africa has recently been reported to be paralleled (or even preceded) by an equally dramatic decline in malaria vector density, despite absence of ...

Host, vector, and parasite dynamics: exploring intrinsic and extrinsic factors shaping tick‐borne filarial nematode transmission

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tick‐borne filarial nematodes are a complex and understudied group of parasites that rely on ticks for transmission in vertebrates. This review examines how intrinsic and extrinsic factors may influence the successful transmission of filarial nematodes in tick vectors, drawing insights from extensively studied haematophagous dipteran vector ...

Population dynamics of Herves transposable element in Anopheles gambiae [PDF]

, 2005
The transgenic RIDL method could ensure that male mosquitos can be released without biting females and that the males would have no female progeny after mating to wild females.
