Population structure analyses and demographic history of the malaria vector Anopheles albimanus from the Caribbean and the Pacific regions of Colombia

Lina A Gutiérrez, Nelson J Naranjo, Astrid V Cienfuegos, Carlos E Muskus, Shirley Luckhart, Jan E Conn, Margarita M Correa Malaria Journal 2009, 8:259 (19 November 2009)

this study showed patterns of gene flow among the different Anopheles albimanus populations from Colombia. This knowledge could be applied to current vector control strategies since data on vector population genetics allow the inference of the spread of genes important for insecticide resistance or refractoriness to malaria parasites.

Population structure of the malaria vector Anopheles moucheti in the equatorial forest region of Africa

Christophe Antonio-Nkondjio, Cyrille Ndo, Pierre Kengne, Louis Mukwaya, Parfait Awono-Ambene, Didier Fontenille, Frédéric Simard Malaria Journal 2008, 7:120 (4 July 2008)

Anopheles moucheti is a major malaria vector in forested areas of Africa. Here, levels of genetic differentiation were estimated between different moucheti populations sampled throughout its distribution range in Central Africa.
