Living on the edge : a longitudinal study of Anopheles funestus in an isolated area of Mozambique [PDF]

, 2013
Understanding the survival strategies of malaria vectors at the edges of their distribution, where they are under stress from environmental conditions, may lead to the development of novel control techniques and may help predict the effects of climate ...

Faunal richness and the checklist of Indian mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) [PDF]

Check List, 2014
A review of published studies revealed that the Indian mosquito fauna comprises 393 species in 49 genera and 41 subgenera. The subfamily Anophelinae contains 61 species in one genus followed by Culicinae with 332 species in 11 tribes and 48 genera.

Review of genetic diversity in malaria vectors (Culicidae: Anophelinae)

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2012
We review previous studies on the genetic diversity of malaria vectors to highlight the major trends in population structure and demographic history. In doing so, we outline key information about molecular markers, sampling strategies and approaches to investigate the causes of genetic structure in Anopheles mosquitoes.

Systematic studies on Anopheles galvaoi Causey, Deane & Deane from the subgenus Nysssorhynchus blanchard (Diptera: Culicidae)

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2002
Anopheles galvaoi, a member of the subgenus Nyssorhynchus, is redescribed based on morphological characters of the adults male and female, fourth-instar larva and pupa. Female, male genitalia, larval and pupal stages are illustrated.

Slaving and release in co-infection control [PDF]

, 2013
Background: Animal and human infection with multiple parasite species is the norm rather than the exception, and empirical studies and animal models have provided evidence for a diverse range of interactions among parasites. We demonstrate how an optimal

K‐mer‐Based Motif Analysis in Insect Species across Anopheles, Drosophila, and Glossina Genera and Its Application to Species Classification

Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Short k‐mer sequences from DNA are both conserved and diverged across species owing to their functional significance in speciation, which enables their use in many species classification algorithms. In the present study, we developed a methodology to analyze the DNA k‐mers of whole genome, 5′ UTR, intron, and 3′ UTR regions from 58 insect species ...

Revised checklist and distribution maps of Anopheles (Insecta: Diptera: Culicidae: Anophelinae) mosquitoes of Bangladesh [PDF]

Check List, 2013
It has been 25 years since the publication of the first checklist of mosquito in Bangladesh and several significant taxonomic changes have occurred. Therefore, considering these changes, we prepare an updated list of Anopheles species in Bangladesh along

Biological Control of Mosquito‐Borne Diseases: The Potential of Wolbachia‐Based Interventions in an IVM Framework

Journal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
People living in the tropical and subtropical regions of the world face an enormous health burden due to mosquito‐borne diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, and filariasis. Historically and today, targeting mosquito vectors with, primarily, insecticide‐based control strategies have been a key control strategy against major mosquito‐borne diseases ...

Mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) and mosquito-borne diseases in Mali, West Africa

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Mosquito-borne diseases cause major human diseases in almost every part of the world. In West Africa, and notably in Mali, vector control measures help reduce the impact of mosquito-borne diseases, although malaria remains a threat to both morbidity and ...
