Abstract: Plasmodium falciparum is transmitted by mosquitoes from the Anopheles gambiae sensu lato (s.l) species complex and is responsible for severe forms of malaria. The composition of the mosquitoes’ microbiota plays a role in P. falciparum… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-80887-0
Abstract: Isolation mechanisms between mosquito species of the Anopheles gambiae complex, which includes major malaria vectors, remain poorly understood. In some cases, pre-zygotic barriers have been shown to limit gene flow between species of the complex,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s42003-024-06809-y
Abstract: The two main Afrotropical malaria vectors - Anopheles coluzzii and An. gambiae – are genetically distinct and reproductively isolated across West Africa. However, populations at the western extreme of their range are assigned as “intermediate”… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12936-025-05411-9
Abstract: Malaria remains a public health problem in many African countries. In Senegal, the Southern region had the highest malaria incidence and malaria-related deaths. The relationship between vector density and malaria transmission remains poorly understood in… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/insects13030247
Abstract: Simple Summary Targeting mosquitoes with insecticides is one of the most effective methods to prevent malaria transmission. Although numbers of malaria cases have declined substantially this century, this pattern is not universal and Burkina Faso… read more here.
