Ecology of malaria vectors in the Americas and future direction
Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1992 The resurgence of malaria in the Americas has renewed interest in Anopheles biology. Anopheles darlingi, An. albimanus, An. nuneztovai and An aquasalis are reconfirmed as major malaria vectors and other species are playing important roles in regional ...

Highly Efficient Site-Specific Mutagenesis in Malaria Mosquitoes Using CRISPR. [PDF]
, 2018 Anopheles mosquitoes transmit at least 200 million annual malaria infections worldwide. Despite considerable genomic resources, mechanistic understanding of biological processes in Anopheles has been hampered by a lack of tools for reverse genetics. Here,

Immune Regulation of
mBio, 2017 Malaria parasite ookinetes must traverse the vector mosquito midgut epithelium to transform into sporozoite-producing oocysts. The Anopheles innate immune system is a key regulator of this process, thereby determining vector competence and disease ...
