Habitat suitability and ecological niche profile of major malaria vectors in Cameroon Diego Ayala, Carlo Costantini, Kenji Ose, Guy C Kamdem, Christophe Antonio-Nkondjio, Jean-Pierre Agbor, Parfait Awono-Ambene, Didier Fontenille, Frédéric Simard Malaria Journal 2009, 8:307 (23 December 2009) Ecological niche and species distribution modelling should help improve malaria vector control interventions by targeting places and times where the impact on vector populations and disease transmission can be optimized.

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.
