Differential susceptibilities of Anopheles albimanus and Anopheles stephensi mosquitoes to ivermectin [PDF]

Malaria Journal, 2018
Background Vector control is a crucial element of anti-malaria campaigns and works best when there is a thorough knowledge of the biology and behaviour of the Anopheles vector species responsible for transmitting malaria within a given locale.

Physiological Impacts on the Mosquito Vector Hosts Refine Vectorial Capacity Estimates of Mayaro Virus Transmission Risk [PDF]

Viruses
Mayaro virus (MAYV) is an alphavirus transmitted by mosquito vectors. Among the three MAYV genotypes (D, L, and N), genotype D has the broadest geographical distribution in Latin America and the Caribbean.

Ecoregional and altitudinal distribution of the principal malaria vectors in Colombia [PDF]

Malaria Journal
Background In Colombia, with over 100,000 cases reported in 2023, malaria is a significant vector-borne disease. The wide range of climates and highly variable topography and land cover of the country support a high species richness, favouring different ...

Composition and structure of the culturable gut bacterial communities in Anopheles albimanus from Colombia. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2019
The understanding of factors affecting the gut bacterial communities in malaria vectors is essential for the design of vector control interventions, such as those based on a paratransgenic approach.

Knockdown resistance (kdr) and organochlorine insecticide resistance in malaria vectors: a systematic review [PDF]

Malaria Journal
Background Anopheles albimanus, Anopheles darlingi, Anopheles dirus, and Anopheles punctipennis are key malaria vectors across multiple regions. Insecticide resistance especially to organochlorines poses a major challenge to vector control.

A Multi-Approach for In Silico Detection of Chromosome Inversions in Mosquito Vectors [PDF]

Microorganisms
In Brazil, Nyssorhynchus darlingi stands out as the primary malaria vector. Chromosome inversions have long been recognized as critical evolutionary mechanisms in diverse organisms.

IgG antibody response against Anopheles salivary gland proteins in asymptomatic Plasmodium infections in Narino, Colombia

Malaria Journal, 2020
Background The humoral immune response against Anopheles salivary glands proteins in the vertebrate host can reflect the intensity of exposure to Anopheles bites and the risk of Plasmodium infection. In Colombia, the identification of exposure biomarkers

A Follow-Up to the Geographical Distribution of Anopheles Species in Malaria-Endemic and Non-Endemic Areas of Honduras

Insects, 2022
Anopheles species are the vectors of malaria, one of the diseases with the greatest impact on the health of the inhabitants of the tropics. Due to their epidemiological relevance and biological complexity, monitoring of anopheline populations in current ...

Sublethal exposure to spinetoram impacts life history traits and dengue virus replication in Aedes aegypti

Insect Science, Volume 30, Issue 2, Page 486-500, April 2023., 2023
Graphical Abstract Sublethal spinetoram exposure originates Aedes aegypti females with smaller size and weaker blood‐feeding capacity; sublethal spinetoram exposure prolonged the immature development period in Ae. aegypti; and sublethal spinetoram exposure dysregulates mitochondrial function and stimulates dengue virus replication both in cells and in ...
