  abstract = {{I}n human malaria, transmission intensity is highly dependent on the vectorial capacity and competence of local mosquitoes. {M}ost mosquitoes are dead ends for the parasite, and only limited ranges of {A}nopheles are able to transmit {P}lasmodium to humans. {R}esearch to understand the determinants of vectorial capacity and competence has greatly progressed in recent years; however, some aspects have been overlooked and the evolutionary pressures that affect them often neglected. {H}ere, we review key factors of vectorial capacity and competence in {A}nopheles, with a particular focus on the most important malaria vector {A}nopheles gambiae. {W}e aim to point out selection pressures exerted by {P}lasmodium on {A}nopheles to improve its own transmission and discuss how the parasite might shape the vector to its benefit.},
