The three main mosquito genera, Anopheles, Aedes and Culex, transmit respectively
malaria, dengue and lymphatic filariasis. Current mosquito control strategies have proved …

Inland waters cover less than 1% of Earth's surface but harbor more than 6% of all insect
species: Nearly 100,000 species from 12 orders spend one or more life stages in freshwater …

Background This is the second in a series of three articles documenting the geographical
distribution of 41 dominant vector species (DVS) of human malaria. The first paper …

Coevolution—reciprocal evolutionary change in interacting species driven by natural
selection—is one of the most important ecological and genetic processes organizing the …

The origin and mechanisms of human interictal epileptic discharges remain unclear. Here,
we describe a spontaneous, rhythmic activity initiated in the subiculum of slices from patients …

High insecticide resistance resulting from insensitive acetylcholinesterase (AChE) has
emerged in mosquitoes. A single mutation (G119S of the ace‐1 gene) explains this high …

Abstract Background SINEs (Short INterspersed Elements) are homoplasy-free and co-
dominant genetic markers which are considered to represent useful tools for population …

For differential identification of sibling species in the Anopheles gambiae Giles complex
(Diptera: Culicidae), including simultaneous separation of M and S molecular forms within …

Field-collected specimens of all known taxa in the Anopheles gambiae complex were
analyzed on the basis of chromosome inversions with reference to a standard polytene …

Much of what we know about speciation comes from detailed studies of well‐known model
systems. Although there have been several important syntheses on speciation, few (if any) …
