Sikulu-Lord M, Edstein M, Goh B, Lord A, Travis J, Dowell F, et al.
PLoS One . 2024 Mar; 19(3):e0289232. PMID: 38527002
Background: Novel and highly sensitive point-of-care malaria diagnostic and surveillance tools that are rapid and affordable are urgently needed to support malaria control and elimination. Methods: We demonstrated the potential...

Milali M, Kiware S, Govella N, Okumu F, Bansal N, Bozdag S, et al.
PLoS One . 2020 Jun; 15(6):e0234557. PMID: 32555660
After mating, female mosquitoes need animal blood to develop their eggs. In the process of acquiring blood, they may acquire pathogens, which may cause different diseases in humans such as...

Ong O, Kho E, Esperanca P, Freebairn C, Dowell F, Devine G, et al.
Parasit Vectors . 2020 Apr; 13(1):160. PMID: 32228670
Background: Practical, field-ready age-grading tools for mosquito vectors of disease are urgently needed because of the impact that daily survival has on vectorial capacity. Previous studies have shown that near-infrared...

Milali M, Sikulu-Lord M, Kiware S, Dowell F, Corliss G, Povinelli R
PLoS One . 2019 Aug; 14(8):e0209451. PMID: 31412028
Background: Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is currently complementing techniques to age-grade mosquitoes. NIRS classifies lab-reared and semi-field raised mosquitoes into < or ≥ 7 days old with an average accuracy...

Maia M, Kapulu M, Muthui M, Wagah M, Ferguson H, Dowell F, et al.
Malar J . 2019 Mar; 18(1):85. PMID: 30890179
Background: Large-scale surveillance of mosquito populations is crucial to assess the intensity of vector-borne disease transmission and the impact of control interventions. However, there is a lack of accurate, cost-effective...

Plant Dis . 2019 Mar; 86(9):1011-1013. PMID: 30818530
Wheat infected with Tilletia indica is subject to international regulation by 78 countries, and U.S. economic losses could exceed $1 billion if T. indica was found throughout major wheat-producing regions...

Wegulo S, Bockus W, Nopsa J, De Wolf E, Eskridge K, Peiris K, et al.
Plant Dis . 2019 Feb; 95(5):554-560. PMID: 30731943
Fusarium head blight (FHB) or scab, incited by Fusarium graminearum, can cause significant economic losses in small grain production. Five field experiments were conducted from 2007 to 2009 to determine...

Esperanca P, Blagborough A, Da D, Dowell F, Churcher T
Parasit Vectors . 2018 Jun; 11(1):377. PMID: 29954424
Background: The proportion of mosquitoes infected with malaria is an important entomological metric used to assess the intensity of transmission and the impact of vector control interventions. Currently, the prevalence...

Sci Rep . 2018 Jun; 8(1):9590. PMID: 29941924
To date, no methodology has been described for predicting the age of Aedes albopictus Skuse mosquitoes, commonly known as Asian tiger mosquitoes. In this study, we report the potential of...
