The impact of low erythrocyte density in human blood on the fitness and energetic reserves of the African malaria vector Anopheles gambiae [PDF]

, 2013
Background Anaemia is a common health problem in the developing world. This condition is characterized by a reduction in erythrocyte density, primarily from malnutrition and/or infectious diseases such as malaria.

Clock genes and environmental cues coordinate Anopheles pheromone synthesis, swarming, and mating

Science, 2021
Cuticular pheromone circadian regulation Several species of anopheline mosquitoes are important malaria vectors in Africa. Male mosquitoes show species-specific swarming behaviors at certain times of the day to attract females for mating.

Efficient population modification gene-drive rescue system in the malaria mosquito Anopheles stephensi

Nature Communications, 2020
Cas9/gRNA-mediated gene-drive systems have advanced development of genetic technologies for controlling vector-borne pathogen transmission. These technologies include population suppression approaches, genetic analogs of insecticidal techniques that ...

Reduced bio-efficacy of permethrin EC impregnated bednets against an Anopheles gambiae strain with oxidase-based pyrethroid tolerance [PDF]

, 2004
BACKGROUND: Insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) are an integral component of malaria control programmes in Africa. How much pyrethroid resistance in malaria vectors will impact on the efficacy of ITNs is controversial.

Anopheles (Anopheles) plumbeus Stephens 1828

, 2022
24. Anopheles (Anopheles) plumbeus Stephens, 1828 (Fig. 4F) Published source: Remm (1957: 150). Voucher material: None. Comment: There are historical records of four An. plumbeus females collected from Estonia (Remm 1957). No specimens were identified during this study, but this may be because of collection bias.

Genome variation and population structure among 1142 mosquitoes of the African malaria vector species Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles coluzzii

Genome Research, 2020
Mosquito control remains a central pillar of efforts to reduce malaria burden in sub-Saharan Africa. However, insecticide resistance is entrenched in malaria vector populations, and countries with a high malaria burden face a daunting challenge to ...
