Lucas E, Nagi S, Kabula B, Batengana B, Kisinza W, Egyir-Yawson A, et al.
PLoS Biol . 2024 Dec; 22(12):e3002898. PMID: 39636817
To keep ahead of the evolution of resistance to insecticides in mosquitoes, national malaria control programmes must make use of a range of insecticides, both old and new, while monitoring...
2.
Odero J, Dennis T, Polo B, Nwezeobi J, Bodde M, Nagi S, et al.
Mol Ecol . 2024 Oct; 33(22):e17542. PMID: 39374937
A major insecticide resistance mechanism in insect pests is knock-down resistance (kdr) caused by mutations in the voltage-gated sodium channel (Vgsc) gene. Despite being common in most malaria Anopheles vector...

Dennis T, Pescod P, Barasa S, Cerdeira L, Lucas E, Clarkson C, et al.
Sci Rep . 2024 Sep; 14(1):21782. PMID: 39294180
The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) suffers from one of the highest malaria burdens worldwide, but information on its Anopheles vector populations is relatively limited. Preventative malaria control in DRC...

Dyer N, Lucas E, Nagi S, McDermott D, Brenas J, Miles A, et al.
Proc Biol Sci . 2024 Sep; 291(2031):20241142. PMID: 39288798
Malaria control relies on insecticides targeting the mosquito vector, but this is increasingly compromised by insecticide resistance, which can be achieved by elevated expression of detoxifying enzymes that metabolize the...

Kientega M, Clarkson C, Traore N, Hui T, OLoughlin S, Millogo A, et al.
Malar J . 2024 Sep; 23(1):280. PMID: 39285410
Background: Intensive deployment of insecticide based malaria vector control tools resulted in the rapid evolution of phenotypes resistant to these chemicals. Understanding this process at the genomic level is important...

Caputo B, De Marco C, Pichler V, Botta G, Bennett K, Amambua-Ngwa A, et al.
Commun Biol . 2024 Sep; 7(1):1115. PMID: 39256556
The two main Afrotropical malaria vectors - Anopheles coluzzii and An. gambiae - are genetically distinct and reproductively isolated across West Africa. However, populations at the western extreme of their...

Amaya Romero J, Chenal C, Ben Chehida Y, Miles A, Clarkson C, Pedergnana V, et al.
Genome Biol Evol . 2024 Sep; 16(9). PMID: 39226386
Mitochondrial DNA has been a popular marker in phylogeography, phylogeny, and molecular ecology, but its complex evolution is increasingly recognized. Here, we investigated mitochondrial DNA variation in Anopheles gambiae and...

Nagi S, Lucas E, Egyir-Yawson A, Essandoh J, Dadzie S, Chabi J, et al.
Mol Biol Evol . 2024 Jul; 41(7). PMID: 38985692
The primary control methods for the African malaria mosquito, Anopheles gambiae, are based on insecticidal interventions. Emerging resistance to these compounds is therefore of major concern to malaria control programs....

bioRxiv . 2024 Jun; PMID: 38854026
A major mechanism of insecticide resistance in insect pests is knock-down resistance () caused by mutations in the voltage-gated sodium channel () gene. Despite being common in most malaria vector...
