Silverleaf whiteflies show no increase in insecticide resistance

California Agriculture, 1996
The silverleaf whitefly (Bemisia argentifolii Bellows & Perring) continues to be a difficult pest to control in California's desert valleys. To gain a better understanding of the possible role that insecticide resistance plays in its annual outbreaks, a ...

Pyrethroid resistance in Anopheles gambiae leads to increased susceptibility to the entomopathogenic fungi Metarhizium anisopliae and Beauveria bassiana [PDF]

, 2010
Background Entomopathogenic fungi are being investigated as a new mosquito control tool because insecticide resistance is preventing successful mosquito control in many countries, and new methods are required that can target insecticide-resistant malaria

Dynamics of biotic resistance to plant invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biotic resistance, the reduction in invasion success caused by native communities, plays an important role in the long‐term dynamics of biological invasions. A large body of empirical research on biotic resistance has accumulated since the last comprehensive review on the subject 20 years ago, enabling us to achieve a refined understanding of ...

Review of the evolution of insecticide resistance in main malaria vectors in Cameroon from 1990 to 2017

Parasites & Vectors, 2017
Background Malaria remains a major public health threat in Cameroon and disease prevention is facing strong challenges due to the rapid expansion of insecticide resistance in vector populations.

Insecticide resistance in the West African malaria vector Anopheles gambiae and investigation of alternative tools for its delay [PDF]

, 2009
There is a current policy to eliminate malaria in the African continent. Pyrethroid-incorporated Long Lasting Insecticidal Nets (LLINs) and/or Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS) are the chemical weapons being deployed to achieve that goal. Rather worryingly,

Use of insecticide quantification kits to investigate the quality of spraying and decay rate of bendiocarb on different wall surfaces in Kagera region, Tanzania [PDF]

, 2015
Bendiocarb was introduced for the first time for Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS) in Tanzania in 2012 as part of the interim national insecticide resistance management plan.

Dual‐Function Electrocatalysis: Simultaneous Wastewater Remediation and Hydrogen Evolution—A Comprehensive Review

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Replacing the oxygen evolution reaction with the electro‐oxidation of pollutants and waste streams offers an energy‐efficient route for simultaneous hydrogen production and pollutant remediation. This review summarizes the reaction mechanisms, catalyst design principles, and emerging paired‐electrolysis strategies that govern activity, selectivity ...

Insecticide Resistance and Vector Control [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 1998
Insecticide resistance has been a problem in all insect groups that serve as vectors of emerging diseases. Although mechanisms by which insecticides become less effective are similar across all vector taxa, each resistance problem is potentially unique and may involve a complex pattern of resistance foci.

Susceptibility Status of Malaria Vectors to Insecticides Commonly used for Malaria Control in Tanzania. [PDF]

, 2012
The aim of the study was to monitor the insecticide susceptibility status of malaria vectors in 12 sentinel districts of Tanzania. WHO standard methods were used to detect knock-down and mortality in the wild female Anopheles mosquitoes collected in ...
