Genomic Analysis Reveals a New Cryptic Taxon Within the Anopheles gambiae Complex With a Distinct Insecticide Resistance Profile in the Coast of East Africa

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 10, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Anopheles mosquitoes are major malaria vectors, encompassing several species complexes with diverse life histories, transmission risks and insecticide resistance profiles that challenge malaria control efforts. This study investigated the genetic structure and insecticide resistance profiles of Anopheles gambiae complex mosquitoes in Tanzania.

Effect of fire timing on the regeneration capacity of Helichrysum species in Tanzania

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 2, April–June 2025.
Shrub encroachment poses a significant challenge in many grassland ecosystems, particularly where disturbances such as heavy livestock grazing and uncontrolled fires are prevalent. The study investigated resprouting ability of Helichrysum shrubs after being completely, partially or not at all burned.

Change in Composition of the Anopheles Gambiae Complex and its Possible Implications for the Transmission of Malaria and Lymphatic Filariasis in North-Eastern Tanzania. [PDF]

, 2012
A dramatic decline in the incidence of malaria due to Plasmodium falciparum infection in coastal East Africa has recently been reported to be paralleled (or even preceded) by an equally dramatic decline in malaria vector density, despite absence of ...

A phylogenomic approach to disentangling the evolution of the large and diverse daisy tribe Anthemideae (Asteraceae)

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 282-306, March 2025.
The daisy tribe (Anthemideae) is one of the most diverse within the Asteraceae family, which is the largest or second largest of all angiosperms. We analyzed the intricate evolutionary relationships within this tribe using a targeted high‐throughput sequencing phylogenomic approach.
