  • Title: Advances in the study of Anopheles funestus, a major vector of malaria in Africa.
    Author: Coetzee M, Fontenille D.
    Journal: Insect Biochem Mol Biol; 2004 Jul; 34(7):599-605. PubMed ID: 15242700.
    Abstract:
    The recent literature on cytogenetic and molecular studies of Anopheles funestus, a major vector of malaria in Africa, is reviewed. Molecular data from West and Central Africa suggest a new species in the group closely allied to Anopheles rivulorum. Cytogenetic and molecular studies of populations from West, Central, East and southern Africa indicate considerable genetic structuring within An. funestus itself, which may well restrict the spread of pyrethroid resistance that has been demonstrated in southern Africa.
