Innate preference for host-odor blends modulates degree of anthropophagy of Anopheles gambiae sensu lato (Diptera: Culicidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
In field studies, Anopheles gambiae Giles sensu stricto obtains most blood meals from humans, whereas Anopheles quadriannulatus Theobald bites predominantly bovids. We investigated whether host odors modulate the host preference of these mosquito species.

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

open access: yes, 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 ...

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

open access: yes, 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 ...

Trends in the selection of insecticide resistance in Anopheles gambiae s.l. mosquitoes in northwest Tanzania during a community randomized trial of longlasting insecticidal nets and indoor residual spraying. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Anopheles gambiae s.l. (Diptera: Culicidae) in Muleba, Tanzania has developed high levels of resistance to most insecticides currently advocated for malaria control. The kdr mutation has almost reached fixation in An. gambiae s.s. in Muleba.

open access: yes, 2005
Four laboratory-raised colonies of two karyotypic forms of Anopheles aconitus, i.e., Form B (Chiang Mai and Phet Buri strains) and C (Chiang Mai and Mae Hong Son strains), were experimentally infected with Plasmodium falciparum and P.

Infection of Malaria (Anopheles gambiae s.s.) and Filariasis (Culex quinquefasciatus)Vectors with the Entomopathogenic Fungus Metarhizium Anisopliae. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Current intra-domiciliary vector control depends on the application of residual insecticides and/or repellents. Although biological control agents have been developed against aquatic mosquito stages, none are available for adults.

Efficacy of repellent products against caged and free flying Anopheles stephensi mosquitoes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The efficacy of 9 repellents (8 commercial repellents and one product under development) was evaluated on the skin at dosages of 0.65 and 1.7 mg of product/cm2, the latter dosage being the industrial standard for deet based repellents.

[Biology of Anopheles (Kerteszia) neivai H., D. & K., 1913 (Diptera: Culicidae) in the Pacific coast of Colombia. I. Fluctuation of the larval population and characteristics of their breeding places].

open access: yesRevista de saude publica, 1988
The fluctuation of the larval population and characteristics of the breeding places of Anopheles (Kerteszia) neivai were studied in the village of Charambirá, Istmina county, Department of Chocó. This mosquito species is considered to be the malaria vector in this region of the Pacific coast of Colombia.
