Host selection by Anopheles arabiensis and An. quadriannulatus feeding on cattle in Zimbabwe.

Medical and veterinary entomology - 1 Jun 2002

Prior A, Torr S J

Abstract excerpt

In the Zambezi valley, mosquito females of the Anopheles gambiae Giles complex (Diptera: Culicidae) were collected from a hut containing pairs of cattle distinguishable by known DNA markers. DNA was extracted from the blood-fed mosquito abdomens and primer sets for ungulate and mosquito DNA loci were used to identify the mosquito sibling species and individual host source(s) of their bloodmeals. The 67 mosquitoes...
