Molecular evidence of incipient speciation within Anopheles gambiae s.s. in West Africa [PDF]
We karyotyped and identified by polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis Anopheles gambiae s.s. samples collected in several African countries. The data show the existence of two non-panmictic molecular forms,

Resistance to Dihydroartemisinin
To the Editor: The emergence of widespread resistance to chloroquine and sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine in Africa has caused a sharp rise in deaths from malaria. The World Health Organization therefore urgently recommends replacement of these drugs, particularly with combinations that include an artemisinin compound (AC) (1). In 2006, although >40 countries
