Entomological investigations into yellow fever outbreak in northern Ghana

The paper investigates mosquito vectors during a yellow fever outbreak in Ghana, finding high transmission risk but no yellow fever virus in sampled mosquitoes.

Genomic diversity of the African malaria vector Anopheles funestus

The paper analyzes genomic diversity in Anopheles funestus across Africa, identifying genetic variation, adaptation signals, and conservation of a gene drive target.

Emergence of hyper insecticide-resistant dengue vectors in Indochina Peninsula: threats of concomitant knockdown resistance mutations

The paper identifies high-frequency hyper insecticide-resistant mutations in Aedes aegypti from Vietnam and Cambodia, with concomitant mutations showing unprecedented pyrethroid resistance.

Resistance to pirimiphos-methyl in West African Anopheles is spreading via duplication and introgression of the Ace1 locus

The paper identifies a resistance mechanism to pirimiphos-methyl in Anopheles mosquitoes through duplication and introgression of the Ace1 locus, showing its spread in West Africa.

Rapid high throughput SYBR green assay for identifying the malaria vectors Anopheles arabiensis, Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles gambiae s.s. Giles

The paper develops a SYBR green real-time PCR assay to distinguish three malaria vector species and their hybrids using melting temperature analysis.
