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.
The study was funded by UK Aid and carried out in Uganda, focusing on one of the main malaria carrying mosquitoes in Africa — Anopheles gambiae s.s..
PARIS — Scientists have agreed to collaborate on an eagerly awaited effort to sequence the genome of the mosquito Anopheles gambiae, the main vector for the malaria parasite in sub-Saharan Africa.
Evolution of GOUNDRY, a cryptic subgroup of Anopheles gambiae sl, and its impact on susceptibility to Plasmodium infection.
Evolution of GOUNDRY, a cryptic subgroup of Anopheles gambiae sl, and its impact on susceptibility to Plasmodium infection Crawford, J. C., M. M. Riehle, K. Markianos, E. Bischoff, et al. 2016.
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.
Local selection on chromosomal inversions may play a role in this process, suggesting potential for spatiotemporal stability of the coastal hybrid form and providing resilience against introgression of medically - important loci and traits, found to be more prevalent in inland A. gambiae.
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.
