Increasing insecticide resistance in Anopheles funestus and Anopheles arabiensis in Malawi, 2011–2015 [PDF]

Malaria Journal, 2016
La sensibilité des principaux vecteurs du paludisme à Anopheles aux insecticides courants a été surveillée sur une période de 5 ans à travers le Malawi pour informer et guider le programme national de lutte contre le paludisme. Des anophèles et des larves nourris au sang ont été prélevés sur plusieurs sites dans seize districts à travers le pays entre ...

First report of the L1014F kdr mutation in wild populations of Anopheles arabiensis in Cabo Verde, West Africa

Parasites & Vectors, 2021
Background Due to the lack of vaccines, malaria control mainly involves the control of anopheline vectors (Anopheles spp.) using chemical insecticides.

Malaria in migrant agricultural workers in western Ethiopia: entomological assessment of malaria transmission risk

Malaria Journal, 2021
Background Ethiopia has made great strides in malaria control over the last two decades. However, this progress has not been uniform and one concern has been reported high rates of malaria transmission in large agricultural development areas in western ...

Malaria risk and receptivity: Continuing development of insecticide resistance in the major malaria vector Anopheles arabiensis in northern KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa

South African Journal of Science, 2022
Malaria incidence in South Africa is highest in the three endemic provinces: KwaZulu-Natal, Mpumalanga and Limpopo. The contribution to malaria transmission by several mosquito species, variation in their resting behaviours and low levels of insecticide

Insecticide Resistance in Anopheles arabiensis and Anopheles gambiae from Mozambique [PDF]

Journal of Medical Entomology, 2006
Abstract Malaria control in the southern part of Mozambique is currently by indoor residual spraying with a carbamate insecticide and by pyrethroid-treated bed-nets distributed to pregnant women and children under five in northern Mozambique. The susceptibility of Anopheles gambiae s.s.

Entomologic Inoculation Rates of Anopheles arabiensis in Southwestern Ethiopia [PDF]

The American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2013
We collected anophelines every second week for one year from randomly selected houses in southwestern Ethiopia by using Centers for Disease Control (CDC) light traps, pyrethrum spray catches, and artificial pit shelter constructions to detect circumsporozoite proteins and estimate entomologic inoculation rates (EIRs).

The role of grass volatiles on oviposition site selection by Anopheles arabiensis and Anopheles coluzzii [PDF]

Malaria Journal, 2017
The reproductive success and population dynamics, of Anopheles malaria mosquitoes is strongly influenced by the oviposition site selection of gravid females. Mosquitoes select oviposition sites at different spatial scales, starting with selecting a habitat in which to search.

Anopheles arabiensis in Sudan: a noticeable tolerance to urban polluted larval habitats associated with resistance to Temephos

Malaria Journal, 2018
Background It has been documented that unplanned urbanization leads to the exposure of members of the Anopheles vectors to a range of water pollution in urban settings.

Life expectancy of Anopheles funestus is double that of Anopheles arabiensis in southeast Tanzania based on mark-release-recapture method

Scientific Reports, 2023
Anopheles arabiensis and Anopheles funestus sensu stricto mosquitoes are major East African malaria vectors. Understanding their dispersal and population structure is critical for developing effective malaria control tools.

Biochemical basis of permethrin resistance in Anopheles arabiensis from Lower Moshi, north-eastern Tanzania. [PDF]

, 2010
BACKGROUND: Development of resistance to different classes of insecticides is a potential threat to malaria control. With the increasing coverage of long-lasting insecticide-treated nets in Tanzania, the continued monitoring of resistance in vector ...
