Quantifying Reductions in Plasmodium falciparum Infectivity to Mosquitos: A Sample Size Calculator to Inform Clinical Trials on Transmission-Reducing Interventions

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Malaria transmission depends on the presence of mature Plasmodium transmission stages (gametocytes) that may render blood-feeding Anopheles mosquitos infectious.

Effectiveness of synthetic versus natural human volatiles as attractants for Anopheles gambiae (Diptera: Culicidae) sensu stricto [PDF]

, 2010
Females of the African malaria vector, Anopheles gambiae Giles sensu stricto, use human volatiles to find their blood-host. Previous work has shown that ammonia, lactic acid, and aliphatic carboxylic acids significantly affect host orientation and ...

PoolSeq Genome-Wide Association Studies and Microbial Signature Analyses Identify Novel Candidates Associated With Pyrethroid Resistance Evolution in Anopheles funestus in Cameroon. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Intensification of insecticide resistance in malaria vectors is undermining efforts to sustain control strategies. The evolutionary features underlying such exacerbation in major vector such as Anopheles funestus are only partially understood.

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.
