Assessing the population genetic structure and demographic history of Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles arabiensis at island and mainland sites in Uganda: implications for testing novel malaria vector control approaches
This study highlights how geographic and ecological factors shape mosquito population structure and provides critical evidence for the design and monitoring of genetic-based vector control interventions, including the planning and evaluation of field trials.
