Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Malaria transmission hinges on infected Anopheles mosquitoes biting humans, with carbon dioxide (CO2), host odor, and body heat acting as key attractants. Along the Thai-Myanmar border, Anopheles minimus (the Funestus Group), a primary malaria vector, exhibits a stronger preference for human hosts than species of the Maculatus Group. Elucidating the genetic basis of this feeding behavior is essential...
