A CRISPR-Cas9 sex-ratio distortion system for genetic control. [PDF]

, 2016
Genetic control aims to reduce the ability of insect pest populations to cause harm via the release of modified insects. One strategy is to bias the reproductive sex ratio towards males so that a population decreases in size or is eliminated altogether ...

Evolutionary superscaffolding and chromosome anchoring to improve Anopheles genome assemblies

BMC Biology, 2020
New sequencing technologies have lowered financial barriers to whole genome sequencing, but resulting assemblies are often fragmented and far from ‘finished’.

The effects of human volatiles produced by skin microbiota on Forcipomyia (Lasiohelea) taiwana host preference

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Human skin volatiles influence midge behavior, with certain compounds acting as strong attractants or repellents. These odor differences are largely regulated by skin microbiota, offering insight into host preference mechanisms and potential for improved vector control. Abstract BACKGROUND Midges are widely distributed globally.

Functional synergy and genomic linkage of glyphosate resistance traits in Canada fleabane

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Stacking target‐site and non‐target‐site glyphosate resistance mechanisms in Conyza canadensis results in strong synergistic effects. This study quantifies gene × gene interactions and maps linked resistance loci, advancing our understanding of herbicide resistance genetics and informing management strategies.

Malaria vector density entomological surveillance system evaluation, Zambezia, Mozambique, 2017-2019

Journal of Interventional Epidemiology and Public Health
Introduction: Vector density is the degree of domiciliation of malaria vectors that influence the vectorial capacity of mosquito populations in different regions and at different times.

Experimental hut evaluation of bednets treated with an organophosphate (chlorpyrifos-methyl) or a pyrethroid (lambdacyhalothrin) alone and in combination against insecticide-resistant Anopheles gambiae and Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes [PDF]

, 2005
BACKGROUND: Pyrethroid resistant mosquitoes are becoming increasingly common in parts of Africa. It is important to identify alternative insecticides which, if necessary, could be used to replace or supplement the pyrethroids for use on treated nets ...

Development of an eco‐friendly RNAi yeast attractive targeted sugar bait that silences the shaker gene in spotted‐wing drosophila, Drosophila suzukii

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study discusses a promising new attractive targeted sugar bait (ATSB) technology using yeast that expresses shRNA targeting essential genes in the fruit pest spotted‐wing drosophila (SWD). The yeast, which is delivered using soda as a sugar bait, could one day be an effective component in integrated SWD control programs.
