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 ...

Brain Proteomics of Anopheles gambiae [PDF]

OMICS: A Journal of Integrative Biology, 2014
Abstract Anopheles gambiae has a well-adapted system for host localization, feeding, and mating behavior, which are all governed by neuronal processes in the brain. However, there are no published reports characterizing the brain proteome to elucidate neuronal signaling mechanisms in the vector.

Dual‐line Genome‐scale CRISPR Screening Enables Robust Target Gene Discovery

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A species‐optimized CRISPR platform integrates efficient piggyBac delivery, genome‐scale sgRNA libraries, and parallel screening in two independently engineered Bactrocera dorsalis Cas9 cell lines. Cross‐line consensus analysis filters line‐specific effects, enriches candidates with reproducible in vivo phenotypes, and reveals conserved, species ...

Changes in contributions of different Anopheles vector species to malaria transmission in east and southern Africa from 2000 to 2022

Parasites & Vectors, 2023
Background Malaria transmission in Africa is facilitated by multiple species of Anopheles mosquitoes. These vectors have different behaviors and vectorial capacities and are affected differently by vector control interventions, such as insecticide ...

Trends in the selection of insecticide resistance in Anopheles gambiae s.l. mosquitoes in northwest Tanzania during a community randomized trial of longlasting insecticidal nets and indoor residual spraying. [PDF]

, 2014
Anopheles gambiae s.l. (Diptera: Culicidae) in Muleba, Tanzania has developed high levels of resistance to most insecticides currently advocated for malaria control. The kdr mutation has almost reached fixation in An. gambiae s.s. in Muleba.

Laboratory, simulated‐use, and field evaluation of non‐insecticidal consumer products for indoor pest management: a freeze‐spray aerosol, light traps, and an ‘insect repellent’ lamp

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Control efficacy of three types of non‐insecticidal consumer products were examined in laboratory, simulated‐use, and field conditions. Freeze spray and ‘repellent lamp’ showed limited efficacy, whereas various results in attraction in light trap were reported.

Relationship between the L1014F mutation in the kdr gene and the endophagic and exophagic behaviors of Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles gambiae in Benin

Journal of Basic and Applied Zoology
Background The increasing resistance exhibited by Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles coluzzii to insecticides represents a major challenge for malaria vector control strategies. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the L1014F mutation in

Molecular identification of sibling species in the Anopheles gambiae complex using PCR in Bauchi State, Nigeria

UMYU Scientifica Journal
Malaria vector control programs in Bauchi State, Nigeria, rely on accurate identification of mosquito species. This study aimed to determine the composition of the Anopheles gambiae sibling species complex in the region. Using Pyrethroid spray collection,

Co-occurrence and distribution of East (L1014S) and West (L1014F) African knock-down resistance in Anopheles gambiae sensu lato population of Tanzania. [PDF]

, 2014
OBJECTIVE: Insecticide resistance molecular markers can provide sensitive indicators of resistance development in Anopheles vector populations. Assaying these makers is of paramount importance in the resistance monitoring programme.
