Temperature modulates the dissemination potential of Microsporidia MB, a malaria-blocking endosymbiont of Anopheles mosquitoes

Fidel Gabriel Otieno, Priscille Barreaux, Steeven Belvinos Affognon, Edward Edmond Makhulu, Thomas Ogao Onchuru, Anne Wambui Wairimu, Stancy Mandere Omboye, Cynthia Nyambura King’ori, Bonoukpoè Mawuko Sokame, Anthony Kebira Nyamache, Jeremy K. Herren

This study shows that warmer temperatures increase the dissemination potential of Microsporidia MB, a malaria-blocking endosymbiont of Anopheles mosquitoes, by accelerating larval development and infection rates.

The Plasmodium transmission-blocking symbiont, Microsporidia MB, is vertically transmitted through Anopheles arabiensis germline stem cells

Thomas Ogao Onchuru, Edward Edmond Makhulu, Purity Cassandra Ronnie, Stancy Mandere Omboye, Fidel Gabriel Otieno, Joseph Gichuhi, Jeremy K. Herren

This study identifies the mechanism of vertical transmission of Microsporidia MB in Anopheles arabiensis, showing it spreads through germline stem cells and replicates in oocytes during egg development.
