Anopheles stephensi<\/em> Liston is a major malaria vector with a geographical range from the Middle East through the Indian subcontinent and China. Throughout its natural range, Anopheles stephensi<\/em> is an important vector for both Plasmodium falciparum<\/em> and Plasmodium vivax<\/em>. The strain used for this genome sequencing project is the Indian Wild Type strain originally established at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research. It belongs to the “type” biological form and has a segregating 2Rb inversion. An. stephensi<\/em> is recognised as an important vector of malaria in urban areas bordering the Persian Gulf, including western and northwestern India. There are three known forms of An. stephensi<\/em> including the typical form which is an efficient vector of urban malaria, the intermediate form, which is typically found in rural villages and peri-urban areas, but very little is known about its vector status, and the mysorensis form which is restricted to rural areas with poor vectorial capacity due to its highly zoophilic behaviour. The mysorensis form is, however, considered an important vector in Iran. Its genome was sequenced in 2014 [1]<\/p>\n
