Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of five species of the Anopheles dirus complex from Thailand, using allele-specific polymerase chain reaction
Catherine Walton,Jane M. Handley,Chaliow Kuvangkadilok,Frank H. Collins,Ralph E. Harbach,Visut Baimai,Roger K. Butlin +6 more
TL;DR: Primers can be combined in a single PCR reaction providing a rapid, sensitive and straightforward method of species identification, and only small quantities of DNA are required, leaving most of the mosquito to be used for other analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Closely Related Wolbachia Strains within the Pumpkin Arthropod Community and the Potential for Horizontal Transmission via the Plant
TL;DR: Potential roles for the plant in Wolbachia transmission and for whiteflies in being an infection source for other pumpkin leaf-feeding insects are suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hard ticks and their bacterial endosymbionts (or would be pathogens)
TL;DR: This review summarises several endosymbiotic bacterial species in hard ticks from various parts of the world, including Coxiella-, Francisella-, Rickettsia- and Arsenophonus-like symbionts as well as Candidatus Midichloria mitochondrii and Wolbachia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Population-genetic evidence for two species in Anopheles minimus in Thailand.
TL;DR: Sympatric occurrence of homozygotes for two electro‐morphs controlled by a locus for octanol dehydrogenase, and the absence of heterozygotes, at two localities, indicates two isomorphic species within the taxon Anopheles minimus Theobald in Thailand.
Journal ArticleDOI
Population Structure and Population History of Anopheles dirus Mosquitoes in Southeast Asia
Catherine Walton,Jane M. Handley,Willoughby Tun-Lin,Frank H. Collins,Ralph E. Harbach,Visut Baimai,Roger K. Butlin +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that this approach, rather than the use of fixation indices, is required in the future to understand contemporary gene flow in these mosquitoes.
