Genetic Dissection of Anopheles gambiae Gut Epithelial Responses to Serratia marcescens
Genetic variation in the mosquito Anopheles gambiae profoundly influences its ability to transmit malaria. Mosquito gut bacteria are shown to influence the outcome of infections with Plasmodium parasites and are also thought to exert a strong drive on genetic variation through natural selection; how...
