Improving the population genetics toolbox for the study of the African malaria vector Anopheles nili: microsatellite mapping to chromosomes

Ashley Peery, Maria V Sharakhova, Christophe Antonio-Nkondjio, Cyrille Ndo, Mylene Weill, Frederic Simard, Igor V Sharakhov Parasites & Vectors 2011, 4:202 (19 October 2011)

Abstract | Full text | PDF | PubMed |  Editor’s summary

We developed a chromosome map of microsatellite markers for Anopheles nili, a major malaria vector in the humid savannas and forested areas of sub-Saharan Africa. This map allows genome-wide inferences about the population structure of An. nili. Image: Mapping of a microsatellite on An. nili chromosomes.
