MRA-860B??Anopheles gambiae, Mali-NIH, Bulk Frozen(Vectors)|Anopheles gambiae|Mali-NIH, Bulk Frozen| -80°C or colder|NJ BesanskyAcknowledgment for publications should read "The following reagent was obtained through BEI Resources, NIAID, NIH: Anopheles gambiae, Strain Mali-NIH, Bulk Frozen, MRA-860B, contributed by Nora J. Besansky."|Quantity limit per order for this item is 1. This item can be ordered twice a year. Orders over this limit will be sent to NIAID for approval before shipment. The mosquito species complex Anopheles gambiae M form strains may also be referred to as Anopheles coluzzii, since a new species designation for these strains has been proposed. The Anopheles gambiae (An. gambiae), strain Mali-NIH colony was established from blood-fed adult females collected resting inside houses in Niono, Mali in June 2005. Approximately 80 isofemale families molecularly identified as An. gambiae M form were used to establish the colony, which was subsequently karyotyped as 2Rbc/bc; 2La/a. The An. gambiae, strain Mali-NIH colony is the source of DNA for the An. gambiae M form genome sequencing project (GenBank: ABKP00000000) supported by the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI). MRA-860B is suitable for DNA and RNA isolation, protein extraction, etc. Each tube of MRA-860B contains at least 100 adult male and female wild-type An. gambiae, strain Mali-NIH mosquitoes preserved in liquid nitrogen (quick-frozen).

Eggs are provided on damp filter paper and should be hatched immediately upon receipt.Note: For information on hatching and establishing a stock of A. gambiae refer to Methods in Anopheles Research.
