Abstract

Anopheles mosquitoes are one of the most widespread malaria vectors in Thailand. In some groups cannot be clearly indicated that they are main malaria vectors. This project has been studied to determined the genetic diversity of Anopheles nigerrimus and An. nitidus in Hatyai district in Songkhla Province using Suppressor of Cytokines Signalling (SOCS) gene that is promoted to increase the infection of malaria in immune system. In this study, Anopheles nigerrimus and An. nitidus were found in term of individuals 5 and 5, respectively. SOCS was amplified to 125 bp. in this study. The analysis has demonstrated that Anopheles nigerrimus and An.nitidus SOCS gene was not significantly different in genetic variation and genetic diversity.
