Behaviour of Anopheles albimanus in relation to pyrethroid‐treated bednets

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, 1997
Abstract. Responses of the malaria vector Anopheles albimanus to pyrethroid impregnated bednets made of cotton or nylon, compared with untreated nets, were investigated in houses occupied by two people inside and/or outside two bednets, in coastal Chiapas, México.

Homozygous translocations in Anopheles albimanus

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1983
Four homozygous, autosomal translocation stocks were established in Anopheles albimanus, which is an important vector of malaria in Central America. When inbred, the fertility of these homozygous translocation stocks ranged from 87.4 to 92.5%, and similar fertilities were observed in outcrosses to a normal strain.

The Distribution of Anopheles Albimanus in the Caribbean Islands

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1953
Summary 1.  The presence of A. albimanus in the island units of the Caribbean is discussed. 2.  Field observations have now established its absence from the Netherlands Leeward and Windward Islands, Trinidad and Tobago, Grenada, St. Vincent, Barbados, St. Lucia, Martinique, Dominica and St. Kitts.

Inheritance of Resistance to Dieldrin in Anopheles albimanus Wiedemann

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1961
Summary and Conclusions Parent and hybrid populations of dieldrin resistant (El Salvador) and susceptible (Panama) Anopheles albimanus were tested for resistance by exposing 2- to 3-day-old adults to the World Health Organization dieldrin-impregnated test papers.

Studies on the Ecology of Anopheles Albimanus

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1972
Summary In general, it seems that A. albimanus might be more zoophilic than anthropophilic, more exophagic than endophagic, more exophilic than endophilic, not particularly long-lived, and infrequently found harboring malaria parasites. Yet, this species is considered to have been responsible for the annual transmission of malaria to thousands of ...

Genetic variability and mapping of peptidase-4 in Anopheles albimanus

Journal of Heredity, 1987
Field-collected and laboratory populations of Anopheles albimanus were analyzed for the presence of variability for the enzyme, peptidase. Four zones of peptidase electromorphs were observed. The Peptidase-4 (Pep-4) locus was analyzed genetically and assigned to a location adjacent to the centromere on the right arm of chromosome 2 by employing crosses

Isolation of a sex-linked homozygous translocation in Anopheles albimanus

Journal of Heredity, 1982
A viable sex-linked homozygous translocation was isolated in Anopheles albimanus Wiedemann by using cytogenetic techniques and the X-linked marker, white eye. An examination of the meiotic chromosomes from ovaries established that the long arm of the X chromosome is involved in the translocation, and preparations of salivary gland chromosomes were used

Isolation and characterization of histones from Anopheles albimanus Weidemann

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1989
1. Histones from Anopheles albimanus adults were prepared by a combination of techniques including chromatin isolation and selective extractions. 2. The anopheline histones were identified on acid urea gels by comparing their electrophoretic profile with that of calf thymus histones and histones isolated from other tissue. 3.

Distribution of Anopheles albimanus, Anopheles vestitipennis, and Anopheles crucians Associated with Land Use in Northern Belize

Journal of Medical Entomology, 2006
Anthropogenic land use changes often alter natural patterns of disease transmission. The goal of this study was to determine whether phosphorus input from sugarcane, Saccharum officinarum L., cultivation in northern Belize could pose a significant environmental impact on malaria transmission by changing vegetation structure and composition of wetlands ...
