Temperature and transmission: novel estimates of the effects of temperature on the human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum

E. Suh, I. J. Stopard, B. Lambert, J. L. Waite, N. L. Dennington, T. S. Churcher, M. B. Thomas

The paper uses a mechanistic model and experimental data to estimate how temperature affects Plasmodium falciparum transmission in Anopheles gambiae, showing reduced transmission efficiency in warmer climates.

Estimating the extrinsic incubation period of malaria using a mechanistic model of sporogony

I. J. Stopard, T. S. Churcher, B. Lambert

This paper estimates the extrinsic incubation period of malaria using a mechanistic model of sporogony, finding greater variation in EIP than previously thought.

Anopheles stephensi as an emerging malaria vector in the Horn of Africa with high susceptibility to Ethiopian Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum isolates

T. A. Amenu, H. Teka, E. Esayas, L. A. Messenger, W. Chali, L. Meerstein-Kessel, T. Walker, S. W. Behaksra, K. Lanke, R. Heutink, C. L. Jeffries, D. A. Mekonnen, E. Hailemeskel, T. Tafesse, A. Gashaw, , F. G. Tadesse

The paper assesses the susceptibility of Anopheles stephensi to Ethiopian Plasmodium vivax and P. falciparum isolates, finding high receptivity and potential for increased malaria transmission in the Horn of Africa.

The influence of feeding behaviour and temperature on the capacity of mosquitoes to transmit malaria

E. Suh, M. K. Grossman, J. L. Waite, N. L. Dennington, E. Sherrard-Smith, T. S. Churcher, M. B. Thomas

This study shows that temperature and feeding time affect malaria mosquito competence, with evening feeders having higher competence under fluctuating temperatures than midnight feeders.
