Development of a gravid trap for collecting live malaria vectors Anopheles gambiae s.l. [PDF]

, 2013
BACKGROUND: Effective malaria vector control targeting indoor host-seeking mosquitoes has resulted in fewer vectors entering houses in many areas of sub-Saharan Africa, with the proportion of vectors outdoors becoming more important in the transmission ...

Wild Animal Suffering Is Not Intractable: A Precautionary Approach to Compassionate Intervention

Journal of Applied Philosophy, Volume 43, Issue 2, Page 471-490, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Wild animals suffer due to human activity, yet natural factors contribute far more significantly to their suffering. In light of this, some propose that we have a pro tanto obligation to intervene in ecosystems to improve wild animal welfare.

Why does Anopheles Arabiensis predominate over An. Gambiae Sensu Stricto in hot and arid conditions? [PDF]

, 2005
The mosquitoes Anopheles arabiensis má An. gambiae s. s. are two sibling species that are the most efficient vectors of malaria across Africa. Although they occursympatrically over much of the continent, An.

Identification and mapping of potential and highly likely vectors for selected vector‐borne diseases in the EU and neighbouring countries

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract This report addresses Term of Reference 1.2 by providing a comprehensive knowledge‐mapping of arthropod vector species competent to transmit selected vector‐borne diseases (VBDs) including VBDs listed under Regulation (EU) 2016/429 and Regulation (EU) 2020/687, as well as additional non‐listed pathogens with potential epidemiological relevance.

Hybridization studies to modify the host preference of Anopheles gambiae.

, 2014
A strategy to decrease the vector competence of Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto (Diptera: Culicidae), the most efficient malaria vector in Africa, may consist of exploiting the genes involved in zoophily.

Molecular bases of insect odorant receptor function: specificity and evolution

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 1036-1049, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Insect odorant receptors (ORs) are a class of chemoreceptors that insects use to detect volatile cues in their environment. In recent years, major advances in the field of structural biology have made it possible to obtain the first structures of insect ORs.

Distribution and spread of pyrethroid and DDT resistance among the Anopheles gambiae complex in Tanzania.

, 2013
The development of insecticide resistance is a threat to the control of malaria in Africa. We report the findings of a national survey carried out in Tanzania in 2011 to monitor the susceptibility of malaria vectors to pyrethroid, organophosphate ...

Insect Olfactory Receptor‐Expressing Sensor Cells for Colorectal Cancer Diagnosis Using Urine Samples

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2026.
We developed a novel, noninvasive diagnostic method for colorectal cancer using sensor cells expressing insect ORs that detect volatile organic compounds in urine samples. By analyzing the luminescence responses of sensor cells and applying machine learning, our model achieved 80% sensitivity and an ROC‐AUC of 0.84 in distinguishing colorectal cancer ...
