New Insights into the Population Structure of Anopheles gambiae s.s. in the Gulf of Guinea Islands Revealed by Herves Transposable Elements

  • Authors: Moreno M, O’Brochta D, Salgueiro P, Simard F, Pinto J
  • Journal: PLoS One
  • Link: http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0062964

Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile portions of DNA that are able to replicate and spread in the genome of many organisms. TEs can be used as a means to insert transgenes in insects, being stably inherited throughout generations.

Geographic population structure of the African malaria vector Anopheles gambiae suggests a role for the forest-savannah biome transition as a barrier to gene flow

  • Authors: Caccone A, Charlwood JD, Della Torre A, Donnelly MJ, Egyir-Yawson A, Elissa N, Gomes B, Moreno M, Santolamazza F, Simard F, Vicente JL, Weetman D
  • Journal: Evolutionary Applications
  • Link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24062800

The primary Afrotropical malaria mosquito vector Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto has a complex population structure. In west Africa, this species is split into two molecular forms and displays local and regional variation in chromosomal arrangements and behaviors.
