A 39-amino-acid C-terminal truncation of GDV1 disrupts sexual commitment in<em> Plasmodium falciparum</em> (Publications)
Malaria is a mosquito-borne disease caused by apicomplexan parasites of the genus Plasmodium. Completion of the parasite's life cycle depends on the transmission of sexual stages, the gametocytes, from [...] important to sustain GDV1 protein levels and thereby sexual commitment.IMPORTANCE Transmission of malaria-causing Plasmodium species by mosquitos requires the parasite to change from a continuously growing
A new WHO bottle bioassay method to assess the susceptibility of mosquito vectors to public health insecticides: results from a WHO-coordinated... (Publications)
BACKGROUND: The continued spread of insecticide resistance in mosquito vectors of malaria and arboviral diseases may lead to operational failure of insecticide-based interventions if resistance is not [...] be widely used to monitor baseline insecticide susceptibility of wild populations of vectors of malaria and Aedes-borne diseases worldwide.
