Improving the population genetics toolbox for the study of the African malaria vector Anopheles nili: microsatellite mapping to chromosomes

We developed a chromosome map of microsatellite markers for Anopheles nili, a major malaria vector in the humid savannas and forested areas of sub-Saharan Africa. This map allows genome-wide inferences about the population structure of An. nili. Image: Mapping of a microsatellite on An. nili chromosomes.
