Anopheles stephensi is an efficient vector of malaria parasites in Iran. Despite its importance
in malaria transmission, there is a scarcity of accurate predictive models of its rates of …

Background Intensive anti-malaria campaigns targeting the Anopheles population have
demonstrated substantial reductions in adult mosquito density. Understanding the …

Background Malaria continues to be one of the most devastating diseases in the world,
killing more humans than any other infectious disease. Malaria parasites are entirely …

Global warming may affect the future pattern of many arthropod-borne diseases, yet the
relationship between temperature and development has been poorly described for many …

Objective: To determine the significance of temperature, rainfall and humidity in the
seasonal abundance of Anopheles stephensi in southern Iran. Methods: Data on the …

The objective was to determine the population dynamics of Anopheles stephensi in relation
to malaria transmission. The study was carried out in three villages of Bandar-Abbas's …

Background Understanding the biology of malaria vector mosquitoes is crucial to
understanding many aspects of the disease, including control and future outcomes. The …

Background Malaria transmission depends on vector life-history parameters and population
dynamics, and particularly on the survival of adult Anopheles mosquitoes. These dynamics …

Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto is the most efficient malaria vector in Africa. Recent
advances in mapping the distribution of this vector have exploited the relationship between …

Climate change and global warming are emerging as important threats to human health,
