Life table analysis of Anopheles balabacensis, the primary vector of Plasmodium knowlesi in Sabah, Malaysia

Background: Plasmodium knowlesi has become a major public health concern in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo, where it is now the only cause of indigenous malaria. The importance of P. knowlesi has spurred on a series of studies on this parasite, as well as on the biology and ecology of its principal vector, Anopheles balabacensis. However, there remain critical knowledge gaps on the biology of An. balabacensis, such as life history data and life table parameters. To fill these gaps, we conducted a life table study of An. balabacensis in the laboratory. Characterising vector life cycles and survival ra... Mehr ...
