Linear and Spatial Organization of Polytene Chromosomes of the African Malaria Mosquito Anopheles funestus
1 Sept 2001
Abstract excerpt
Anopheles funestus Giles is one of the major malaria vectors in Africa, but little is known about its genetics. Lack of a cytogenetic map characterized by regions has hindered the progress of genetic research with this important species. This study developed a cytogenetic map of An. funestus using ovarian nurse cell polytene chromosomes. We demonstrate an important application with the cytogenetic map for...
