Cytochrome P450associated with insecticide resistance catalyzes cuticular hydrocarbon production in Anopheles gambiae. [PDF]
The role of cuticle changes in insecticide resistance in the major malaria vector Anopheles gambiae was assessed. The rate of internalization of 14C deltamethrin was significantly slower in a resistant strain than in a susceptible strain.

Jasminum bioactives improve food preservation by providing antimicrobial and antioxidant effects, especially when incorporated into active packaging, edible films, and nanoformulations that enhance stability and controlled release. They also offer many pharmacological benefits, including anti‐inflammatory, neuroprotective, and wound‐healing properties.

Circadian rhythms in insecticide susceptibility, metabolic enzyme activity, and gene expression in Cimex lectularius (Hemiptera: Cimicidae). [PDF]
Many insect species display daily variation of sensitivity to insecticides when they are exposed to the same concentration at different times during the day. To date, this has not been investigated in bed bugs.

This study explores the effectiveness of essential oils in controlling postharvest phytopathogenic fungi for fruits and vegetables revealing how essential oils could offer sustainable solutions for reducing fungal contamination. By testing various oils in two methods, we identify Origanum vulgare, Syzygium aromaticum, and Cymbopogon citratus as potent ...

A systematic review of insecticide resistance in Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) and implications for dengue control in Indonesia [PDF]
Background and Aim: Dengue fever, primarily transmitted by Aedes aegypti, remains a critical public health challenge in Indonesia, with periodic outbreaks exacerbated by widespread insecticide resistance.

A Mathematical Model of Flavescence Dorée Epidemiology [PDF]
Flavescence dor\'ee (FD) is a disease of grapevine transmitted by an insect vector, $Scaphoideus$ $titanus$ Ball. At present, no prophylaxis exists, so mandatory control procedures (e.g. removal of infected plants, and insecticidal sprays to avoid transmission) are in place in Italy and other European countries.

A distinct strain of Arsenophonus symbiont decreases insecticide resistance in its insect host
Symbiotic bacteria are important drivers of phenotypic diversity in insects. One of the widespread symbionts to have emerged belongs to the genus Arsenophonus, however, its biological functions in most host insects remain entirely unknown. Here we report

Monitoring insecticide resistance in the bollworm Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) from 1998 to 2002 in Cote d'Ivoire, West Africa [PDF]
Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) is the major insect pest of the cotton crop in West Africa. Populations recently developed resistance to pyrethroids via the overproduction of oxidases.
