This project investigates the genetic factors influencing sex differentiation in the malaria vector mosquito, Anopheles gambiae. By utilizing advanced molecular techniques, it aims to identify genes that regulate mosquito development, which could inform new strategies for vector control.
Anopheles gambiae is the major vector species of human malaria in Africa.
Notably only female mosquitoes transmit the disease because unlike males that use nectar as energy source, they must feed on blood to generate their progeny.
This implies that the genes controlling male and female differentiation are crucial in determining the ability of female mosquitoes to transmit the disease.
This project has the objective to investigate in male and female A. gambiae the structure and the relative abun…
