Molecular and entomological surveillance of malaria vectors in urban and rural communities of Benguela Province, Angola

Parasites & Vectors
Background Malaria is a major public health problem in Angola, with Anopheles gambiae sensu lato (s.l.) and An. funestus s.l. being the primary vectors. This study aimed to clarify the information gaps concerning local Anopheles mosquito populations. Our

Partial cross-resistance to carbosulfan of pyrethroid-resistant strains of Anopheles: Society Meeting at Manson House, London, 7 December 2000: Research in progress: short presentation [PDF]

, 2001
Pyrethroid resistance is a serious threat to the continued usefulness of insecticide-treated nets to control malaria vectors. It is therefore important to investigate alternative insecticides.

Phenotypic and genotypic insecticide resistance profiles of main malaria vectors in Kwale county, coastal Kenya

Malaria Journal
Background Long-lasting insecticidal nets are the primary malaria vector control measure in coastal Kenya. In 2018, phenotypic resistance to pyrethroids and low frequency of L1014S kdr mutation were reported in the Anopheles gambiae complex.

Vector Abundance and Genetic Diversity of Anopheles Mosquitoes Collected in a Laboratory–Office Complex in Vom, Nigeria: Implications for Vector Control

Public Health Challenges
Malaria remains a significant threat in high‐burden high‐impact (HBHI) countries despite substantial investments in disease control. This highlights the need for more comprehensive and inclusive strategies to meet national and international targets ...

A new robust diagnostic polymerase chain reaction for determining the mating status of female Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes. [PDF]

, 2007
The principal malaria vector in Africa, Anopheles gambiae, contains two pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes. The Y chromosome is only associated with males and other Y chromosome-specific DNA sequences, which are transferred to women ...
