This study validates the Polovodova method for mosquito age-grading, finding high accuracy for parity but declining precision for later gonotrophic cycles in both lab and field settings.

This study characterizes a new Anopheles funestus colony (FUTAZ) established in Tanzania, comparing its fitness traits and genetic markers to wild and existing colonies.

The paper analyzes the population genetics of Anopheles funestus in Tanzania, identifying two distinct genetic populations with different resistance backgrounds and suggesting geographic barriers to gene flow.

This study compares mating behavior between Anopheles funestus and Anopheles arabiensis under controlled conditions, finding species-specific differences in copulation timing and light response.

This paper develops a self-cooling, self-humidifying backpack to transport live adult mosquitoes over long distances in challenging field conditions, achieving high survival rates comparable to controlled environments.
