Building on the newly - published pilot study, the team will conduct experiments using a windtunnel which measures the behaviour of mosquitoes towards odours and electrodes which track the response of individual odour - detecting cells
from within the antenna of the mosquito in specially - designed secure laboratories at the School to measure the responses of malaria - infected Anopheles
gambiae s.s. females to human odours.
While work on Panoptes continues, we've released two early implementations of this framework — web applications designed to share data
from the Anopheles
gambiae 1000 Genomes Project (Ag1000G) and Pf3k projects.
The first major dataset
from the Anopheles
gambiae 1000 Genomes (Ag1000G) project has been released.
To gain a deeper understanding of how mosquito populations are evolving, here we sequenced the genomes of 765 specimens of Anopheles
gambiae and Anopheles coluzzii sampled
from 15 locations across Africa, and identified over 50 million single nucleotide polymorphisms within the accessible genome.
While the Anopheline Y had previously been implicated in male mating behavior, recent data
from the Anopheles
gambiae complex suggests that, apart
from the putative primary sex - determiner, no other genes are conserved on the Y. Studying the functional basis of the evolutionary divergence of the Y chromosome in the
gambiae complex is complicated by complete F1 male hybrid sterility.
