Insect cytokine growth-blocking peptide (GBP) regulates insect development

open access: yesApplied Entomology and Zoology, 2006
Growth-blocking peptide (GBP) was first identified in the hemolymph of the host armyworm, Pseudaletia separata, whose growth is halted in the last instar larval stage by parasitization with the parasitoid wasp, Cotesia kariyai. Studies on the mechanism of growth retardation by GBP revealed that GBP titers in hemolymph fluctuate synchronously with ...

Pyriproxyfen for mosquito control: female sterilization or horizontal transfer to oviposition substrates by Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto and Culex quinquefasciatus

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2014
Background The use of gravid mosquitoes as vehicles to auto-disseminate larvicides was recently demonstrated for the transfer of pyriproxyfen (PPF) by container-breeding Aedes mosquitoes and presents an appealing idea to explore for other disease vectors.
