A major genetic locus controlling natural Plasmodium falciparum infection is shared by East and West African Anopheles gambiae

Michelle M Riehle, Kyriacos Markianos, Louis Lambrechts, Ai Xia, Igor Sharakhov, Jacob C Koella, Kenneth D Vernick Malaria Journal 2007, 6:87 (6 July 2007)

Detection of a malaria-control locus at the same chromosomal location in both East and West African mosquitoes indicates that the same mechanism of Plasmodium-resistance, or a mechanism controlled by the same genomic region, is found across Africa, and thus probably operates in A. gambiae throughout its entire range.
