Identification of Single Specimens of the Anopheles Gambiae Complex by the Polymerase Chain Reaction
1 Oct 1993
Abstract excerpt
A ribosomal DNA-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method has been developed for species identification of individuals of the five most widespread members of the Anopheles gambiae complex, a group of morphologically indistinguishable sibling mosquito species that includes the major vectors of malaria in Africa. The method, which is based on species-specific nucleotide sequences in the ribosomal DNA intergenic...
