PUBLICATION: Plasmodium malariae contributes to high levels of malaria transmission in a forest– savannah transition area in Cameroon by Daniel Nguiffo-Nguete & al

News

Many species of Plasmodium are responsible for malaria transmission. Malaria control efforts are heavily focused on Plasmodium falciparum, the most virulent and well-known. However, other Plasmodium species do not receive the same attention. To strengthen malaria control, it is preferable to understand the role of all Plasmodium species. In this study, we assessed the contribution…

PUBLICATION: Impact of insecticide resistance on malaria vector competence: a literature review by Pierre Fongho Suh & al

News

  It is well established that the Anopheles mosquito’s, transmitting malaria are rapidly becoming resistant to insecticides in most endemic countries. With increasing proportions of insecticide resistant Anopheles vectors on the field, it is predicted that the successes obtained over the past decade in reducing vector’s abundances through the use of  insecticide-based control tools will…
