Plasmodium Actin‐Like Proteins 3 and 5a Are Required for Subsequent Steps of Mosquito Infection

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 126, Issue 4, Page 451-461, October 2026.
Actin‐like proteins (Alps) are highly conserved, apicomplexan‐specific members of the actin superfamily. Using reverse genetics, we have identified that Alp3 and Alp5a are required at separate steps of transmission of the malaria parasite to its mosquito host.

Development and Validation of an Environmental DNA Workflow to Monitor Mosquito Populations

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
We designed a workflow for detecting mosquito eDNA in water. We validated the method with a lab experiment and occupancy‐detection modeling framework. We then tested the method in the field, validating it by parallel morphological identification. The method is robust, not affected by water volume and represents a useful tool for mosquito monitoring ...

Status of insecticide susceptibility in Anopheles gambiae s.l. from malaria surveillance sites in The Gambia. [PDF]

, 2009
BACKGROUND: Vector control is an effective way of reducing malaria transmission. The main vector control methods include the use of insecticide-treated bed nets and indoor residual spraying (IRS).

Anthropogenic Factors Driving Recent Range Expansion of the Malaria Vector Anopheles stephensi

Frontiers in Public Health, 2019
The malaria vector Anopheles stephensi is found in wide tracts of Asia and the Middle East. The discovery of its presence for the first time in the island of Sri Lanka in 2017, poses a threat of malaria resurgence in a country which had eliminated the ...

Effects of Drug Resistance on the Global Spread of Malaria: A Systematic Literature Review

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Malaria remains a major health crisis in tropical regions, with Sub‐Saharan Africa bearing the heaviest burden. While insecticide‐treated nets and artemisinin‐based combination therapies (ACTs) have reduced cases, emerging parasite resistance to artemisinin threatens these gains. This review synthesizes evidence on how drug

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.

Maternal environment shapes the life history and susceptibility to malaria of Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes. [PDF]

, 2011
BACKGROUND: It is becoming generally recognized that an individual's phenotype can be shaped not only by its own genotype and environmental experience, but also by its mother's environment and condition.

Spatiotemporal distribution and bionomics of Anopheles stephensi in different eco-epidemiological settings in Ethiopia

Parasites & Vectors
Background Malaria is a major public health concern in Ethiopia, and its incidence could worsen with the spread of the invasive mosquito species Anopheles stephensi in the country. This study aimed to provide updates on the distribution of An.
