A mark-release-recapture experiment with Anopheles lesteri paraliae in northwest Peninsular Malaysia
Annals of Tropical Medicine & Parasitology, 1992In a coastal village in northwest Malaysia, 3231 fed Anopheles females of eight to 10 species were collected, marked with fluorescent dust, and released on three consecutive nights. In collections made on the 10 nights after the first release, 58 mosquitoes of three species, An. lesteri paraliae, An. subpictus and An.

Aedes aegypti survival and dispersal estimated by mark-release-recapture in northern Australia.
The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene, 1998The survival and dispersal of adult Aedes aegypti were estimated in northern Australia where sporadic outbreaks of Ae. aegypti-borne dengue viruses have occurred in recent years. Standard mark-release-recapture methods were used. In addition, a new sticky trap was used to capture the mosquitoes.

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, 2021
AbstractStudies of insect movement are hampered by the small size of insects and the associated difficulty in tracking them in the environment. We tested the potential of quantum dots (QDs) to mark large numbers of insects very quickly. Our results demonstrate that green CdTe (cadmium tellurium) QDs were effective markers in the laboratory and can be ...

Estimation of foraging territories of Reticulitermes grassei through mark–release–recapture
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, 2007AbstractSubterranean termites have highly cryptic life habits and their foraging activities are as a rule confined to below‐ground level gallery systems. Mark–release–recapture (MRR) using fat‐soluble histological dyes is a candidate method for the study of foraging dynamics and territories, but has not hitherto been standardized experimentally. A wide

A mark-release-recapture experiment with Mansonia mosquitos in Malaysia.
The Southeast Asian journal of tropical medicine and public health, 1991An experiment was carried out with Mansonia mosquitos in an area endemic for subperiodic Brugia malayi to assess the applicability of the mark-release-recapture method to these mosquitos. An estimated 17,880 individuals of six species of Mansonia were marked with fluorescent dust and released: 453 Ma. annulata, 305 Ma. annulifera, 6,200 Ma.

Field‐based experimental evolution of three cereal pathogens using a mark–release–recapture strategy
Plant Pathology, 2013Field‐based experimental evolution is a research approach in which study species are allowed to evolve across several generations under well‐defined field conditions. Field‐based experiments in pathogen evolution became feasible with advances in molecular markers and computing technologies.

Abstract. In Queensland, Australia, in response to isolated cases of dengue infection, larval control of the vector Aedes aegypti (L.) (Diptera: Culicidae) is targeted at breeding sites within 200 m of a case and interior spraying with a pyrethroid adulticide is targeted ...

Methods to mark termites with protein for mark–release–recapture and mark–capture type studies
Insectes Sociaux, 2009Studies were conducted to investigate the feasibility of marking the southwestern desert subterranean termite, Heterotermes aureus (Snyder), with rabbit immunoglobulin G (IgG) protein for mark–release–recapture (MRR) and mark–capture type studies. Qualitative laboratory studies were conducted to determine how long reagent-grade rabbit IgG is retained ...

Three subterranean termite species [eastern subterranean termite, Reticulitermes flavipes (Kollar); R. virginicus (Banks); and R. hageni (Banks)] were included in 67 mark–release–recapture experiments conducted with 57 different colonies in Georgia over 3 yr (1992, 1993, and 1995).

Butterfly mobility: genetics and mark-release recapture studies
2013Biological dispersal has always been an important topic in several studies in population ecology. It is known that different butterfly species present a sedentary or migratory behaviour. While the genetic analysis intends to respond to population structure and isolation issues that are mostly well studied, the effects of different dispersal behaviours ...
