Scientists with the National Institutes of Health in the United States have found a way to infect mosquitoes with bacteria in order to break the genetic transmission of malaria. According to research newly published in the journal Science, the bacterial infection that would be introduced to mosquitoes is inheritable and could be passed on for as many as 34 generations of the aerial blood-suckers, rendering them immune to malaria parasites.
