Identification of two species within the Anopheles minimus complex in northern Vietnam and their behavioural divergencesW Van Bortel
Department of Parasitology, Prince Leopold Institute of Tropical Medicine, Antwerpen, Belgium
Trop Med Int Health 4:257-65. 1999..Thus a vector control strategy will have a nonuniform effect on the various components of this diverse vector system...- Molecular identification of Anopheles minimus s.l. beyond distinguishing the members of the species complexW Van Bortel
Department of Parasitology, Prince Leopold Institute of Tropical Medicine, Antwerpen, Belgium
Insect Mol Biol 9:335-40. 2000..From this it is clear that molecular identification has to focus not only on the species of complexes, but also on related species if they hamper the morphological identification of the 'sensu lato species'... - Confirmation of Anopheles varuna in vietnam, previously misidentified and mistargeted as the malaria vector Anopheles minimusW Van Bortel
Department of Parasitology, Prince Leopold Institute of Tropical Medicine, Antwerp, Belgium
Am J Trop Med Hyg 65:729-32. 2001..Despite the fact that several potential secondary vectors were found during the study, the primary target for vector control in the region should be An. dirus... - Population genetic structure of the malaria vector Anopheles minimus A in VietnamW Van Bortel
Department of Parasitology, Prince Leopold Institute of Tropical Medicine, Nationalestraat 155, B 2000 Antwerpen, Belgium
Heredity 91:487-93. 2003..The macrogeographical population structure indicates that genes may spread over large areas, whereas the presence of an 'urban' An. minimus A population shows the ability of this species to adapt to anthropogenic environmental changes... - Presence of Anopheles culicifacies B in Cambodia established by the PCR-RFLP assay developed for the identification of Anopheles minimus species A and C and four related speciesW Van Bortel
Department of Parasitology, Prince Leopold Institute of Tropical Medicine, Antwerpen, Belgium
Med Vet Entomol 16:329-34. 2002.... - Suggesting new species? Comments on "Evidence for a new species of Anopheles minimus from the Ryukyu Archipelago, Japan"W Van Bortel
Department of Parasitology, Prince Leopold Institute of Tropical Medicine, Nationalestraat 155, B-2000 Antwerpen, Belgium
J Am Mosq Control Assoc 19:261-4. 2003..We discuss these topics on the basis of recent studies on the Anopheles minimus complex, one of the most widespread vector groups in Southeast Asia... - Deltamethrin-impregnated bednets as an operational tool for malaria control in a hyper-endemic region of Burundi: impact on vector population and malaria morbidityW Van Bortel
Laboratory of Medical Entomology, Prince Leopold Institute of Tropical Medicine, Antwerpen, Belgium
Trop Med Int Health 1:824-35. 1996..Further evaluation has to point out the possible shift of the clinical spectrum and the age-specific admission of malaria cases to assess the long-term benefit of this control method... - Introduction and establishment of the exotic mosquito species Aedes japonicus japonicus (Diptera: Culicidae) in BelgiumV Versteirt
Department of Parasitology, Entomology Unit, Institute of Tropical Medicine, Nationalestraat 155, B 2000 Antwerp, Belgium
J Med Entomol 46:1464-7. 2009..Considering the accompanying species found during the surveys, we also report here the first observation of Culex (Maillotia) hortensis hortensis (Ficalbi) in Belgium...
