Role of Cattle Treated with Deltamethrine in Areas with a High Population of Anopheles Arabiensis in Moshi, Northern Tanzania. [PDF]

, 2007
Malaria control measures were initiated from in October 2005 to August 2006 in the Lower Moshi irrigation schemes, Tanzania. This manuscript reports on the entomological evaluation of the impact of pyrethroid-treated cattle in reducing the population of ...

Additional selection for insecticide resistance in urban malaria vectors: DDT resistance in Anopheles arabiensis from Bobo-Dioulasso, Burkina Faso. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
In the city of Bobo-Dioulasso in Burkina Faso, Anopheles arabiensis has superseded Anopheles gambiae s.s. as the major malaria vector and the larvae are found in highly polluted habitats normally considered unsuitable for Anopheles mosquitoes.

Chromosome-level genome assemblies of the malaria vectors Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles arabiensis [PDF]

GigaScience, 2020
Abstract Background Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles arabiensis belong to the Anopheles gambiae complex and are among the major malaria vectors in sub-Saharan Africa. However, chromosome-level reference genome assemblies are still lacking for these medically important mosquito species.

Interventions that effectively target Anopheles funestus mosquitoes could significantly improve control of persistent malaria transmission in south-eastern Tanzania.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Malaria is transmitted by many Anopheles species whose proportionate contributions vary across settings. We re-assessed the roles of Anopheles arabiensis and Anopheles funestus, and examined potential benefits of species-specific interventions in an area

Bio-efficacy of selected long-lasting insecticidal nets against pyrethroid resistant Anopheles arabiensis from South-Western Ethiopia. [PDF]

, 2012
The emergence and spread of insecticide resistance in the major African malaria vectors Anopheles gambiae s.s. and Anopheles arabiensis may compromise control initiatives based on insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) or indoor residual spraying (IRS), and ...

Ovipositional Behavior in the Context of Mass Rearing of Anopheles arabiensis

Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 2010
Large-scale production of mosquitoes is a key factor for a successful sterile insect technique program. A manageable mass-production cage must contain appropriate features for adult resting, mating, feeding, and ovipositional activities. In order to maximize egg collections, tests were conducted to determine the physical characteristics of ...

The impact of temperature on insecticide toxicity against the malaria vectors Anopheles arabiensis and Anopheles funestus [PDF]

Malaria Journal, 2018
It is anticipated that malaria elimination efforts in Africa will be hampered by increasing resistance to the limited arsenal of insecticides approved for use in public health. However, insecticide susceptibility status of vector populations evaluated under standard insectary test conditions can give a false picture of the threat, as the thermal ...

Localization and tissue tropism of the symbiont Microsporidia MB in the germ line and somatic tissues of Anopheles arabiensis

mBio
The Anopheles symbiont, Microsporidia MB, is maternally inherited and has a strong malaria transmission-blocking phenotype in Anopheles arabiensis. Microsporidia MB is also vertically transmitted, sexually transmitted, and avirulent.

Anopheles parensis contributes to residual malaria transmission in South Africa

Malaria Journal, 2019
Background Understanding the contribution of outdoor-resting Anopheles mosquitoes to residual malaria transmission is important in terms of scaling up vector control towards malaria elimination in South Africa.

The infectivity of the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana to insecticide-resistant and susceptible Anopheles arabiensis mosquitoes at two different temperatures [PDF]

, 2010
BACKGROUND: Control of the major African malaria vector species continues to rely extensively on the application of residual insecticides through indoor house spraying or bed net impregnation.
