Overuse of insecticides, which leads to the selection of resistant mosquitoes, affects interactions between mosquitoes and the pathogens they transmit. Researchers from the Institut Pasteur (Paris) ...

A recent review published in PLOS Pathogens discussed the current research on the role of molecular mechanisms in mediating immune priming in insects and regulating vector-borne disease transmission.

Beyond resistance‑associated genes, the researchers uncovered deep geographic population structure and high overall genetic diversity.

Anopheles darlingi mosquitoes—a major vector of malaria in South America—are evolving in response to insecticides, which may ...
