Behavioural determinants of gene flow in malaria vector populations: Anopheles gambiae males select large females as mates
BACKGROUND: Plasmodium-refractory mosquitoes are being rapidly developed for malaria control but will only succeed if they can successfully compete for mates when released into the wild. Pre-copulatory behavioural traits maintain genetic population structure in wild mosquito populations and mating b...
