EFFICACY OF PERMANET® 2.0 AGAINST ANOPHELES CULICIFACIES AND ANOPHELES STEPHENSI, MALARIA VECTORS IN INDIA

Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 2007
Bioefficacy of PermaNet was evaluated in both the laboratory and field against Anopheles culicifacies and An. stephensi, major malaria vectors in India. Contact bioassays were carried out after repeated washings and ring net bioassays to determine the median knockdown time of mosquitoes.

Seasonal abundance and climatic determinants of Anopheles vectors in Sri Lanka: its implications in the malaria post-elimination era [PDF]

Malaria Journal
Background Sri Lanka has been malaria-free since 2012, yet the risk of malaria re-introduction is high during the post-malaria elimination phase due to influx of infected individuals from endemic countries, the presence of competent Anopheles vectors ...

Molecular studies of Anopheles culicifacies (Diptera: Culicidae) in Sri Lanka: Sibling species B and E show sequence identity at multiple loci

European Journal of Entomology, 2006
The anomaly that Anopheles culicifacies (Diptera: Culicidae) species B is a major vector of malaria in Sri Lanka, but a non-vector in India, has been noted for several years. In 1999, a Y chromosome dimorphism associated with Plasmodium vivax infectivity

Mapping the Insecticide Resistance Landscape of Malaria Vectors in Odisha, India (1993-2024): A Scoping Review. [PDF]

J Trop Med
Background Vector‐borne​ diseases (VBDs) are a serious threat to public health, globally. Different genera of mosquitoes, acting as disease vectors, transmit diseases such as malaria, filariasis, dengue, chikungunya, Zika fever, and others. Malaria in humans is caused by Plasmodium species transmitted by Anopheles mosquitoes.
