Molecular and physiological analysis of Anopheles funestus swarms in Nchelenge, Zambia

25 Jan 2018

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Anopheles funestus has been recognized as a major malaria vector in Africa for over 100 years, but knowledge on many aspects of the biology of this species is still lacking. Anopheles funestus, as with most other anophelines, mate through swarming. A key event that is crucial for the An. funestus male to mate is genitalia rotation. This involves the 135° to 180° rotation of claspers, which are tipped...
