The genetic basis of host choice and resting behavior in the major African malaria vector, <i>Anopheles arabiensis</i>

2016-03-24

Abstract excerpt

Malaria transmission is dependent on the propensity of Anopheles mosquitoes to bitehumans (anthropophily) instead of other dead end hosts. Recent increases in the usage of Long Lasting Insecticide Treated Nets (LLINs) in Africa have been associated with reductions in highly anthropophilic vectors such as Anopheles gambiae s.s. ,leaving less anthropophilic species such as Anopheles arabiensis as the most prominen...
