Transmission blocking immunity in the malaria non-vector mosquito Anopheles quadriannulatus species A.
Despite being phylogenetically very close to Anopheles gambiae, the major mosquito vector of human malaria in Africa, Anopheles quadriannulatus is thought to be a non-vector. Understanding the difference between vector and non-vector mosquitoes can facilitate development of novel malaria control str...
