Project description:Ascertain the transcriptional response of the major malaria vector Anopheles coluzzii to the pyrethroid deltamethrin over ten time points.
Project description:Overall, the study aims at obtaining a comprehensive picture of the African malaria mosquito, Anopheles gambiae, transcriptome using high-coverage RNA-seq of sexed whole-insect samples collected at different developmental time points. This experiment focuses on transcriptomes of 10h, 20h, 28h and 36h male and female embryos.
Project description:Overall, the study aims at obtaining a comprehensive picture of the African malaria mosquito, Anopheles gambiae, transcriptome using high-coverage RNA-seq of sexed whole-insect samples collected at different developmental time points. This experiment focuses on transcriptomes of 4 h, 10 h and 20 h old male and female pupae.
Project description:Field resistant Anopheles coluzzii were compared to the lab susceptible Anopheles coluzzii N'Gousso. The samples were collected in 2014 in Burkina Faso and show resistance to pyrethroid insecticides.
