Kija RN Ng'habi, Dickson Mwasheshi, Bart GJ Knols, Heather M Ferguson Malaria Journal 2010, 9:356 (8 December 2010) This study presents proof-of-principle that populations of important African malaria vectors can be established within environmentally realistic, contained semi-field settings.

A reliable morphological method to assess the age of male Anopheles gambiae Bernadette J Huho, Kija R Ng'habi, Gerry F Killeen, Gamba Nkwengulila, Bart GJ Knols, Heather M Ferguson Malaria Journal 2006, 5:62 (27 July 2006) Simple morphological observations of the sexual apparatus of male Anopheles gambiae permit an estimation of the age, but do not permit to assess reliably if a given male had previously mated or not. This robust model enables evaluation of mosquito demographic patterns and mortality, particularly in the context of control programmes based on the release of sterile males.

Ernst-Jan Scholte, Bart GJ Knols, Willem Takken Malaria Journal 2004, 3:45 (28 November 2004) The fact that fungal spores can be transferred between mosquitoes during mating is a novel and interesting finding, which contributes to the
potential of entomopathogenic fungi as a tool for mosquito control.
