Over the past decade, global malaria-related mortality has declined dramatically because of
combined international actions that have defined and prioritized national and regional efforts …

Anopheles mosquitoes present a major public health challenge in sub-Saharan Africa;
notably, as vectors of malaria that kill over half a million people annually. In parts of the east …

Background Many of the mosquito species responsible for malaria transmission belong to a
sibling complex; a taxonomic group of morphologically identical, closely related species …

Background Establishing the extent, geographical distribution and mechanisms of
insecticide resistance in malaria vectors is a prerequisite for resistance management. Here …

Scale up of Long Lasting Insecticide Nets (LLINs) has massively contributed to reduce
malaria mortality across Africa. However, resistance to pyrethroid insecticides in malaria …

Background Most malaria vectors belong to species complexes. Sibling species often exhibit
divergent behaviors dictating the measures that can be deployed effectively in their control …

The Anopheles gambiae complex contains a number of highly anthropophilic mosquito
species that have acquired exceptional ability to thrive in complex human habitats. Thus …

Advances in genomics have led to an appreciation that introgression is common, but its
evolutionary consequences are poorly understood. In recent species radiations the sharing …

Species distributed across heterogeneous environments often evolve locally adapted
ecotypes, but understanding of the genetic mechanisms involved in their formation and …

Metabolic resistance to insecticides threatens malaria control. However, little is known about
its fitness cost in field populations of malaria vectors, thus limiting the design of suitable …
