The sustainability of malaria control in Africa is threatened by the rise of insecticide
resistance in Anopheles mosquitoes that transmit the disease 1. To gain a deeper …

Mosquito control remains a central pillar of efforts to reduce malaria burden in sub-Saharan
Africa. However, insecticide resistance is entrenched in malaria vector populations, and …

Mitigating the threat of insecticide resistance in African malaria vector populations requires
comprehensive information about where resistance occurs, to what degree, and how this …

The evolution of insecticide resistance mechanisms in natural populations of Anopheles
malaria vectors is a major public health concern across Africa. Using genome sequence …

Background In the summer of 2013, Aedes aegypti Linnaeus was first detected in three cities
in central California (Clovis, Madera and Menlo Park). It has now been detected in multiple …

Background Resistance in malaria vectors to pyrethroids, the most widely used class of
insecticides for malaria vector control, threatens the continued efficacy of vector control tools …

Gene drives are a promising means of malaria control with the potential to cause sustained
reductions in transmission. In real environments, however, their impacts will depend on local …

Parasites infect hosts in widely varying environments, encountering diverse challenges for
adaptation. To identify malaria parasite genes under locally divergent selection across a …

The field-testing and eventual adoption of genetically-engineered mosquitoes (GEMs) to
control vector-borne pathogen transmission will require them meeting safety criteria …

Explaining how and why reproductive isolation evolves and determining which forms of
reproductive isolation have the largest impact on the process of population divergence are …
