Standing genetic variation and chromosome differences drove rapid ecotype formation in a major malaria mosquito
Scott T Small, Carlo Costantini , N'Fale Sagnon, Moussa W Guelbeogo, Scott J Emrich, Andrew D Kern, Michael C Fontaine, Nora J Besanskypecies distributed across heterogeneous environments often evolve locally adapted ecotypes, but understanding of the genetic mechanisms involved in their formation and maintenance in the face of gene flow is incomplete. In Burkina Faso, the major African malaria mosquito Anopheles funestus...

Essential oils of plants and their combinations as an alternative adulticides against Anopheles gambiae (Diptera: Culicidae) populations
Mahamoudou Balboné, Ignace Sawadogo, Dieudonné Diloma Soma, Samuel Fogné Drabo, Moussa Namountougou, Koama Bayili, Rahim Romba, Georges Benson Meda, Honorat Charles Roger Nebié, Roch K. Dabire, Imaël H. N. Bassolé & Olivier GnankineThe persistence of malaria and the increasing of resistance of Anopheles gambiae species to chemicals remain major public health concerns in sub-Saharan Africa. Faced to these concerns, the search for alternative vector control strategies as use of essential oils (EOs) need to be implemented....
