Using capillary electrophoresis to identify Anopheline species in routine sampling sites [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2024.
We developed the SOCCET method, allowing Species identification via simple Observation Coupled with Capillary Electrophoresis Technology. We describe its development and use to discriminate between nine Anopheles species of our samples collected in French Guiana.

Two chromosomal reference genome sequences for the malaria mosquito, Anopheles (Nyssorhynchus) darlingi, Root, 1926 from French Guiana and Peru [version 1; peer review: 3 approved] [PDF]

Wellcome Open Research
We present two genome assemblies, each generated from individual female Anopheles (Nyssorhynchus) darlingi (the malaria mosquito; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Culicidae), from wild populations in French Guiana and Peru.

A targeted amplicon sequencing panel to simultaneously identify mosquito species and Plasmodium presence across the entire Anopheles genus

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 22, Issue 1, Page 28-44, January 2022., 2022
Abstract Anopheles is a diverse genus of mosquitoes comprising over 500 described species, including all known human malaria vectors. While a limited number of key vector species have been studied in detail, the goal of malaria elimination calls for surveillance of all potential vector species. Here, we develop a multilocus amplicon sequencing approach

Sitios de cría y actividad de picadura de especies de anopheles en el municipio de Cimitarra, Santander, Colombia.

Biomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2006
Introducción. El municipio de Cimitarra aporta el 45% de los casos de malaria en el departamento de Santander. Los casos proceden del área urbana y rural, y aunque la población más vulnerable corresponde a la comprendida entre 15 y 45 años de edad, se ...

Complete mitogenomes of Anopheles peditaeniatus and Anopheles nitidus and phylogenetic relationships within the genus Anopheles inferred from mitogenomes

Parasites & Vectors, 2021
Background Despite the medical importance of mosquitoes of the genus Anopheles in the transmission of malaria and other human diseases, its phylogenetic relationships are not settled, and the characteristics of mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) are not ...

Complete mtDNA genomes of Anopheles darlingi and an approach to anopheline divergence time

Malaria Journal, 2010
Background The complete sequences of the mitochondrial genomes (mtDNA) of members of the northern and southern genotypes of Anopheles (Nyssorhynchus) darlingi were used for comparative studies to estimate the time to the most recent common ancestor for ...

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 ...

Colombian Anopheles triannulatus (Diptera: Culicidae) Naturally Infected with Plasmodium spp.

International Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
The role of Anopheles triannulatus as a local vector has not yet been defined for malaria‐endemic regions of Colombia. Therefore, the aim of this work was to detect An. triannulatus naturally infected with Plasmodium spp., as an approximation to determining its importance as malaria vector in the country. A total of 510 An.

Malaria vector species in Amazonian Peru co-occur in larval habitats but have distinct larval microbial communities.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2019
In Amazonian Peru, the primary malaria vector, Nyssorhynchus darlingi (formerly Anopheles darlingi), is difficult to target using standard vector control methods because it mainly feeds and rests outdoors.
