Anopheline mosquitoes are the major vectors of human malaria. Mosquito-parasite interactions are a critical aspect of disease transmission and a potential target for malaria control. Mosquitoes vary in their innate ability to support development of the malaria parasite, but the molecular mechanisms
The interplay between evolving host populations and evolving parasite populations is dominated by two key genetically based elements, namely the virulence of parasites and the resistance of their hosts. Here, Graham Mitchell gives a personal overview of ideas on the coevolution of parasite-host rela
