Nature or nurture in mosquito resistance to malaria?

Trends in parasitology - 1 Apr 2007

Hurd Hilary

Abstract excerpt

The genetic basis of mosquito resistance to malaria parasites is well established and currently receives a lot of attention. However this is not the sole determinant of the success or failure of an infection. In a recent article, Lambrechts and colleagues report the influence of the quality of the external environment of a mosquito on infection. They indicate that external variations could substantially reduce...
