Exploiting the behaviour of wild malaria vectors to achieve high infection with fungal biocontrol agents [PDF]
, 2012 Background
Control of mosquitoes that transmit malaria has been the mainstay in the fight against the disease, but alternative methods are required in view of emerging insecticide resistance.Kirby, Matthew J, Mpingwa, Monica W, Mpingwa, M W, Russell, T, Koenraadt, C J M, Koenraadt, Constantianus J M, Lyimo, Issa N, Lyimo, I.N., Mpingwa, M.

, 2011 BACKGROUND: Insecticide-resistant mosquitoes are compromising the ability of current mosquito control tools to control malaria vectors. A proposed new approach for mosquito control is to use entomopathogenic fungi.Knols, B.G.J., Bart GJ Knols, N'Guessan Raphael, Annabel FV Howard, Farenhorst, Marit, Knols, Bart G.
