Anopheles funestus is playing an increasing role in malaria transmission in parts of sub-
Saharan Africa, where An. gambiae ss has been effectively controlled by long-lasting …

Background In order to sustain the gains achieved by current malaria control strategies,
robust surveillance systems that monitor dynamics of vectors and their roles in malaria …

Abstract Background Although the An. funestus group conceals one of the major malaria
vectors in Africa, little is known about the dynamics of members of this group across the …

Abstract Background In south-eastern Tanzania where insecticide-treated nets have been
widely used for> 20 years, malaria transmission has greatly reduced but remains highly …

Background Aggravation of insecticide resistance in malaria vectors is threatening the efforts
to control malaria by reducing the efficacy of insecticide-based interventions hence needs to …

The most important malaria vectors in sub-Saharan Africa are Anopheles gambiae,
Anopheles arabiensis, Anopheles funestus, and Anopheles coluzzii. Of these, An. funestus …

Abstract Background Malaria transmission in Africa is facilitated by multiple species of
Anopheles mosquitoes. These vectors have different behaviors and vectorial capacities and …

Despite the highest global burden of malaria, information on bionomics and insecticide
resistance status of malaria vectors is grossly lacking in the densely populated Sahelo …

Background Two mitochondrial DNA clades have been described in Anopheles funestus
populations from southern Africa. Clade I is common across the continent while clade II is …

Malaria is transmitted by many Anopheles species whose proportionate contributions vary
across settings. We re-assessed the roles of Anopheles arabiensis and Anopheles funestus …
