An integrated genetic and physical map for the malaria vector Anopheles funestus.
We have constructed a genetic map of the major African malaria vector, Anopheles funestus, using genetic markers segregating in F(2) progeny from crosses between two strains colonized from different field sites. Genotyping was performed on 174 progeny from three families using 33 microsatellite markers, a single RFLP, and 15 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) loci. Four linkage groups were re...
متن کاملAn integrated genetic map of the African human malaria vector mosquito, Anopheles gambiae.
We present a genetic map based on microsatellite polymorphisms for the African human malaria vector, Anopheles gambiae. Polymorphisms in laboratory strains were detected for 89% of the tested microsatellite markers. Genotyping was performed for individual mosquitos from 13 backcross families that included 679 progeny. Three linkage groups were identified, corresponding to the three chromosomes....
متن کاملRangewide population genetic structure of the African malaria vector Anopheles funestus.
Anopheles funestus is a primary vector of malaria in Africa south of the Sahara. We assessed its rangewide population genetic structure based on samples from 11 countries, using 10 physically mapped microsatellite loci, two per autosome arm and the X (N = 548), and 834 bp of the mitochondrial ND5 gene (N = 470). On the basis of microsatellite allele frequencies, we found three subdivisions: eas...
متن کاملWater source most suitable for rearing a sensitive malaria vector, Anopheles funestus in the laboratory
Background: The insecticide susceptibility status of Anopheles funestus, one of the main malaria vectors in the Afrotropical regions, remains under-studied due to the difficulty of working with this mosquito species. Collecting their larvae in natural breeding sites, rearing and maintaining them in normal laboratory conditions have been a difficult task. Forced-egg laying technique has been a ...
متن کاملPopulation structure of the malaria vector Anopheles funestus in Senegal based on microsatellite and cytogenetic data.
The study of chromosomal inversions distribution within natural Anopheles funestus populations from West Africa revealed high levels of genetic structuring. In Burkina Faso, this was interpreted as evidence for incipient speciation, and two chromosomal forms were described, namely 'Folonzo' and 'Kiribina'. Assignation of field collected specimens to one chromosomal form depends upon application...
