Entomological drivers of uneven malaria transmission in urban lowland areas in Bouaké, Côte d’Ivoire
Malaria Journal, 2023 Background The use of urban lowlands for agriculture contributes to the food security of city- dwellers, but promotes malaria transmission. The objective of the study was to characterize the entomological drivers of malaria transmission in two lowlands ...

The expanding Anopheles gambiae species complex [PDF]
Pathogens and Global Health, 2020 Many species of Anopheles mosquitoes exist as part of species complexes; that is groups of very closely related species. A prime example of this is the Anopheles gambiae s.l.

Implication of Anopheles funestus in malaria transmission in the city of Yaoundé, Cameroon
Parasite, 2020 The contribution of Anopheles funestus to malaria transmission in the urban environment is still not well documented. The present study assesses the implication of An.

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Haldane’s rule of speciation states that sterility or inviability affects the heterogametic sex of inter-species hybrids. Darwin’s corollary to Haldane’s rule implies that there are asymmetric phenotypes in inter-species hybrids from reciprocal crosses ...

Identification and Characterization of Two Novel RNA Viruses from Anopheles gambiae Species Complex Mosquitoes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Mosquitoes of the Anopheles gambiae complex display strong preference for human bloodmeals and are major malaria vectors in Africa. However, their interaction with viruses or role in arbovirus transmission during epidemics has been little examined, with ...

Malaria vector bionomics in Taita-Taveta County, coastal Kenya
Parasites & Vectors, 2022 Background Estimation of the composition and densities of mosquito species populations is crucial for monitoring the epidemiology of mosquito-borne diseases and provide information on local vectors to public health officials and policy-makers. The aim of

Dry season ecology of Anopheles gambiae complex mosquitoes in The Gambia [PDF]
Malaria Journal, 2008 Abstract Background Malaria in The Gambia is highly seasonal, with transmission occurring as Anopheles gambiae s.l. populations expand during and immediately after a single annual rainy season that lasts from June to October.
