Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes exhibit takeoff responses when presented to commercial permethrin headspace. This product elicits electrophysiological activity in the antennae and tarsi. However, only the chemical information acquired from the tarsi plays a major role in the observed behavioral response.

Microbiome‐mediated chemical communication in insects: Implications for pest management
Microbiome–semiochemical interactions involve the following processes: direct microbial synthesis, host gene regulation, precursor biotransformation, microbiome modulation and indirect ecological signaling. Abstract Insects rely on semiochemicals to regulate aggregation, mating, foraging, and host selection. This review synthesizes evidence that insect‐

We used recently detected P450 DNA‐based markers of pyrethroid resistance in both Anopheles funestus and Anopheles gambiae to demonstrate that although pyrethroid‐resistant mosquitoes have higher ability to survive and live longer after exposure to Royal Guard, this net significantly affects their lifespan, blood feeding ability and interestingly ...

HYBRIDIZATION BETWEEN ANOPHELES CRUCIANS AND ANOPHELES BRADLEYI [PDF]
In the southeastern United States there exists the so-called crucians complex which consists of three species of the genus Anopheles: crucians, bradleyi and georgianus. They are morphologically very similar, and may be separated with certainty only as fourth instar larvae.

ABSTRACT Illegal gold mining has emerged as a major sustainability threat in the Amazon, eroding Indigenous rights, forest integrity, and climate mitigation efforts. This study examines how international market incentives relate to the expansion of illegal mining and associated deforestation within the Yanomami Indigenous Territory (YIT) from 2008 to ...

‘Reservoir dogs’: The emerging zoonotic risk associated with European dog imports to the UK
Abstract Background The movement of dogs from continental Europe to the UK poses a growing public health threat due to the associated risk of disease incursions. Current legislation is insufficient to address the risks and pre‐import control measures are focused only on rabies virus and the fox tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. Methods We conducted
