Properties for Sourcing Nigerian Larvicidal Plants [PDF]

open access: yesMolecules, 2014
Aedes aegypti is the primary vector of chikungunya, yellow and dengue fevers. Dengue fever is the major cause of child morbidity and hospitalisation in some Asian and African countries, while yellow fever is prevalent in Nigeria. The development of resistance to the available insecticides has necessitated the continued search for safer ones from plants.

Development of an eco‐friendly RNAi yeast attractive targeted sugar bait that silences the shaker gene in spotted‐wing drosophila, Drosophila suzukii

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 1, Page 732-741, January 2026.
This study discusses a promising new attractive targeted sugar bait (ATSB) technology using yeast that expresses shRNA targeting essential genes in the fruit pest spotted‐wing drosophila (SWD). The yeast, which is delivered using soda as a sugar bait, could one day be an effective component in integrated SWD control programs.

Knowledge, Attitudes, Practices and Perceptions of the Eco‐Bio‐Social Determinants of Dengue Transmission in São Paulo, Brazil: A Mixed‐Methods Study

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 58-79, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Dengue is a mosquito‐borne disease prevalent in Latin America and the Caribbean. Transmission is determined by ecological, biological and social (eco‐bio‐social) factors. Understanding the knowledge, attitudes, practices and perceptions of dengue's eco‐bio‐social factors among at‐risk populations is essential for dengue prevention.
