Global impact of mosquito biodiversity, human vector-borne diseases and environmental change
More than 3,400 species of mosquito have been recorded worldwide. They include 37 genera,

A model for the coevolution of immunity and immune evasion in vector-borne diseases with implications for the epidemiology of malaria
We describe a model of host‐parasite coevolution, where the interaction depends on the
investments by the host in its immune response and by the parasite in its ability to suppress (or …
