IDENTIFICATION OF A TNF-TNFR-LIKE SYSTEM IN MALARIA VECTORS (ANOPHELES STEPHENSI) LIKELY TO INFLUENCE PLASMODIUM RESISTANCE

Identification of a TNF-TNFR-like system in malaria vectors (Anopheles stephensi) likely to influence Plasmodium resistance

Abstract Identification of Plasmodium-resistance genes in malaria vectors remains an elusive goal despite the recent availability of high-quality genomes of several mosquito vectors.Anopheles stephensi, with its three distinctly-identifiable forms at the egg stage, correlating with varying vector competence, offers an ideal species to discover func
