| first record of a new member of anopheles hyrcanus group from iran: molecular identification, diagnosis, phylogeny, status of kdr resistance and plasmodium infection. | the current study aimed to provide further evidence on the status of species composition, insecticide resistance, and vectorial capacity within the members of anopheles (anopheles) hyrcanus group in ardebil, giulan, and khuzestan provinces of iran. sequencing the internal transcribed spacer 2 (its2) of ribosomal dna gene led to identification of two members of hyrcanus complex: anopheles hyrcanus pallas and a new species/form, hereafter called anopheles hyrcanus sp(ir) as a world record. further ... | 2009 | 19769039 |
