Genetic diversity of Anopheles mosquitoes
… two projects related to the genetic diversity of Anopheles mosquitoes. The first project concerns the development and application of sequence based species assignment methods for any species in the genus. The second project discusses the population structure of the major malaria vector Anopheles …

Molekulare Mechanismen der Plasmodium-Anopheles Interaktionen
… mit den molekularen Mechanismen der Plasmodium-Anopheles Interaktionen beschäftigen. 1. Die melanotische Einkapselung von Plasmodium-Parasiten im Mitteldarm der Anopheles gambiae Mücke stellt eine effiziente Immunantwort dar, die den Lebenszyklus des Malaria-Erregers unterbrechen kann. Die …

Trifluoromethyl ketones: Potential insecticides towards Anopheles gambiae
… has been shown to give cimpounds toxic to Anopheles gambiae within 3- to 4-fold of the toxicity of propoxur. However, thus far we have not been able to link the toxicity of these compounds to a cholinergic mechanism. Pre-incubation studies suggest that significant hydrolysis of these …

Fluoromethyl ketone prodrugs: Potential new insecticides towards Anopheles gambiae
Malaria continues to cause significant mortality in sub-Saharan Africa and elsewhere, and existing vector control measures are being threatened by growing resistance to pyrethroid insecticides. With the goal of developing new human-safe, resistance-breaking insecticides we have explored several …

Host-seeking behaviour in the malaria vector Anopheles Gambiae
… cases are the result of transmission by the Anopheles gambiae species complex, causing 600,000 deaths annually. Increasingly, An. gambiae demonstrate behavioural and physiological resistance to control interventions and this, coupled with inadequate sampling methods, necessitates urgent …

Factors affecting Plasmodium falciparum sporozoite formation in Anopheles mosquitoes
… Plasmodium falciparum clones (3D7 and HB3) in Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes, and the pattern of inheritance of the phenotype was investigated. Membrane-feeding of cultured P. falciparum parasites to laboratory-reared Anopheles mosquitoes produced infected midguts for dissection. Microdissection …

Drosophila as a model for the Anopheles Malpighian tubule
… of control must be found. The malarial mosquito, Anopheles gambiae, spreads the Plasmodium parasite which is responsible for over one million deaths each year, and is one of the species on which many current insecticides are no longer effective. Anopheles is notoriously difficult to study due to a …

Comparative Analysis of Heterochromatin in the Anopheles gambiae Complex
… diverse genomes. The genome of malaria mosquito Anopheles gambiae was first sequenced in 2002 and since then has been updated to include additional scaffolds, their orientations and correction of mis-assemblies. Yet, the greatest challenge remains in assembling the heterochromatin regions, that …

Investigations into the oviposition behaviour of the mosquito Anopheles gambiae
The Anopheles gambiae species complex includes the most predominant malaria vectors in sub-Saharan Africa. How they locate oviposition sites is not fully known, but a greater understanding of this subject may lead to more effective monitoring and trapping of gravid females. This project …

The organization and evolution of heterochromatin in the Anopheles gambiae complex
The Anopheles gambiae complex is comprised of the most important vectors of malaria in Sub-Saharan Africa. Most current control methods involve the use of chemicals that help to limit potential contact with these mosquitoes. However, these control methods still have risks that include insect …
