Abstract Background In the Anopheles gambiae complex, paracentric chromosomal inversions are non-randomly distributed along the complement: 18/31 (58%) of common polymorphic inversions are on...

Abstract Background Knock-down resistance ( kdr ) to DDT and pyrethroids in the major Afrotropical vector species, Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto, is associated with two alternative point mutations...

Abstract Background If the insect innate immune system is to be used as a potential blocking step in transmission of malaria, then it will require targeting one or a few genes with highest relevance...

Chromosomal inversion polymorphisms are thought to play a role in adaptive divergence, but the genes conferring adaptive benefits remain elusive. Here we study 2La, a common polymorphic inversion in...
Genetic population structure of Anopheles gambiaein Equatorial Guinea (2007)

Abstract Background Patterns of genetic structure among mosquito vector populations in islands have received particular attention as these are considered potentially suitable sites for experimental...

We investigated patterns of genetic diversity of Plasmodium falciparum associated with its two main African vectors: Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles funestus. We dissected 10,296 wild-caught...

We compared the development of the molecular forms of Anopheles gambiae s.s. in different larval habitats. First stage larvae (L1s) of wild-caught females were placed into cages in natural habitats...

An entomological survey was conducted on vectors of malaria in a village of the forest–savannah transition area in Cameroon from February 1999 to October 2000. A total of 2,050 anopheline...

Serpins are central to the modulation of various innate immune responses in insects and are suspected to influence the outcome of malaria parasite infection in mosquito vectors. Three Anopheles...

Anopheles and Plasmodium: from laboratory models to natural systems in the field
Cohuet, Anna, Osta, Mike A, Morlais, Isabelle, Awono-Ambene, Parfait H, Michel, Kristin, Simard, Frederic, ...
Parasites that cause malaria must complete a complex life cycle in Anopheles vector mosquitoes in order to be transmitted from human to human. Previous gene-silencing studies have shown the influence...
