Ecoregional and altitudinal distribution of the principal malaria vectors in Colombia [PDF]
Malaria JournalBackground In Colombia, with over 100,000 cases reported in 2023, malaria is a significant vector-borne disease. The wide range of climates and highly variable topography and land cover of the country support a high species richness, favouring different ...

Viral vectors in malaria vaccine development [PDF]
Parasite Immunology, 2009 SummaryTraditional vaccine technologies have resulted in an impressive array of efficacious vaccines against a variety of infectious agents. However, several potentially deadly pathogens, including retroviruses and parasites, have proven less amenable to the application of traditional vaccine platforms, indicating the need for new approaches.

Eliminating malaria vectors [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2013 Malaria vectors which predominantly feed indoors upon humans have been locally eliminated from several settings with insecticide treated nets (ITNs), indoor residual spraying or larval source management. Recent dramatic declines of An. gambiae in east Africa with imperfect ITN coverage suggest mosquito populations can rapidly collapse when forced below
