Highly evolvable malaria vectors: The genomes of 16 Anophelesmosquitoes
INTRODUCTION: Control of mosquito vectors has historically proven to be an effective means of eliminating malaria. Human malaria is transmitted only by mosquitoes in the genus Anopheles, but not all species within the genus, or even all members of each vector species, are efficient malaria vectors. Variation in vectorial capacity for human malaria among Anopheles mosquito species is determined ...
متن کاملSome Ecological Aspects of Malaria Vectors in Saravan Area, Iran
Background & Aims of the Study: The aim of this study was to determine the ecology of malaria vectors in order to select the vector control masseur in the future. This study was carried out on trend of malaria cases and malaria vectors in Saravan county, Sistan & Baluchestan Province, Iran.

متن کاملDraft Genomes of Anopheles cracens and Anopheles maculatus: Comparison of Simian Malaria and Human Malaria Vectors in Peninsular Malaysia
Anopheles cracens has been incriminated as the vector of human knowlesi malaria in peninsular Malaysia. Besides, it is a good laboratory vector of Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax. The distribution of An. cracens overlaps with that of An. maculatus, the human malaria vector in peninsular Malaysia that seems to be refractory to P. knowlesi infection in natural settings. Whole genome sequencing...
متن کاملAn overview and mapping of Malaria and its vectors in Iran
Introduction: In spite of public health level improvement in Iran, Malaria is still an important health problem in the southeast corner of the country. Mapping distribution of endemic diseases with their relations to geographical factors has become important for public health experts. This study was carried out to provide the distribution maps of the geographical pathology of Malaria in Iran wi...
متن کاملEvolution and ecology, after the malaria genomes
The first of the three genomes responsible for malaria was published last year; with the recent and much hyped publication of parasite and vector genomes in Nature and Science respectively, the life-cycle triad is now complete. The genomes and associated papers demonstrate that evolutionary biologists and ecologists have much to contribute to malaria control – and to the unravelling of some ver...
