Investigation of negative cross-resistance as a resistance-management tool for insecticide-treated nets.

, 2004
Resistance management for insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) remains a challenge. Options are limited, because a safe and highly active insecticide with a persistence of several months is required.

Anopheles gambiae Genome: Perspectives for Malaria Control

Molecules and Cells, 2003
Malaria, a disease that infects 300 million people throughout the world and kills more than a million people, mostly children in sub-Saharan Africa, involves three organisms. The human host where the disease is seen, the protozoan Plasmodium parasite and the mosquito.

A survey of indoor and outdoor Anopheles density, species composition and circumsporozoite rate of malaria vectors on the Bijagós Archipelago, Guinea-Bissau

Malaria Journal
Background The malaria-endemic Bijagós Archipelago is situated 50 km off the coast of mainland Guinea-Bissau. It is a seasonal malaria transmission setting, with insecticide-treated bed nets as its primary control strategy.

RNAi Trigger Delivery into Anopheles gambiae Pupae.

Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE, 2016
RNA interference (RNAi), a naturally occurring phenomenon in eukaryotic organisms, is an extremely valuable tool that can be utilized in the laboratory for functional genomic studies. The ability to knockdown individual genes selectively via this reverse genetic technique has allowed many researchers to rapidly uncover the biological roles of numerous ...

Adult mosquitoes of the sibling species Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles coluzzii exhibit contrasting patterns of susceptibility to four neonicotinoid insecticides along an urban-to-rural gradient in Yaoundé, Cameroon

Malaria Journal
Background Neonicotinoids are potential alternatives for controlling pyrethroid-resistant mosquitoes, but their efficacy against malaria vector populations of sub-Saharan Africa has yet to be investigated.

The paradox of plant preference: The malaria vectors Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles coluzzii select suboptimal food sources for their survival and reproduction

Ecology and Evolution
Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles coluzzii mosquitoes, two major malaria vectors in sub‐Saharan Africa, exhibit selectivity among plant species as potential food sources.

Influence of Land-use on the Fitness of Anopheles gambiae, the Principal Vector of Malaria in Nigeria [PDF]

, 2009
Background: Urbanization often results in profound environmental alterations that may promote the transmission of malaria. Though, land-use practices in urban areas have been linked with proliferations of suitable larval breeding habitats of malaria ...
