The complex swarming dynamics of malaria mosquitoes emerge from simple minimally-interactive behavioral rules

This paper shows that malaria mosquito swarms emerge from simple environmental rule-following rather than complex social interactions.

Telomere-to-telomere genome assembly of Microsporidia sp. MB, a microsporidian symbiont of Anopheles coluzzii isolated from Burkina Faso

The paper presents the first complete telomere-to-telomere genome assembly of Microsporidia sp. MB, revealing genomic features and gene loss associated with its symbiotic lifestyle.

Laboratory An. gambiae s.l. mosquito colonies show sustained high transmission of Microsporidia sp. MB and a small fecundity cost

The paper establishes stable Anopheles mosquito colonies carrying Microsporidia sp. MB and shows MB affects fecundity and spore production.

Could malaria mosquitoes be controlled by periodic releases of transgenic mosquitocidal Metarhizium pingshaense fungus? A mathematical modeling approach

This paper evaluates a fungal-based mosquito control strategy using mathematical modeling, finding that periodic releases of transgenic Metarhizium pingshaense can reduce female mosquito populations by up to 86%.

Variance partition reveals contrasting random effect contributions on the density and species composition of malaria-transmitting mosquitoes

The paper quantifies random effects on mosquito density and species composition, finding greater between-village variation than between-house or year.

Maternal and cross-stage effects of Metarhizium fungal infection on the malaria mosquito Anopheles coluzzii life-history

This study evaluates the effects of Metarhizium fungal infection on Anopheles coluzzii larvae and adults, showing reduced survival and cross-stage maternal effects.

Effect of irradiation on the survival and susceptibility of female Anopheles arabiensis to natural isolates of Plasmodium falciparum

This study evaluates how irradiation affects the survival and pathogen transmission ability of female Anopheles arabiensis mosquitoes exposed to Plasmodium falciparum.

Prediction of malaria mosquito species and population age structure using mid-infrared spectroscopy and supervised machine learning

This paper uses mid-infrared spectroscopy and machine learning to accurately predict malaria mosquito species and age structure, offering a fast and cost-effective alternative to traditional methods.

Natural diversity of the malaria vector Anopheles gambiae

The paper sequences genomes of 765 malaria vector mosquitoes to study genetic diversity and insecticide resistance.
