Culex quinquefasciatus Mosquitoes Exposed to a Juvenile Hormone Analog may Take a Bloodmeal While Gravid

open access: yesArchives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 119, Issue 1, May 2025.
We applied s‐hydroprene, a juvenile hormone analog (JHA), to gravid female mosquitoes that have naturally ceased JH production. We found that gravid females exposed to JHAs blood fed in a dose dependent manner and this behavior could be induced through simulated environmental exposure.

Pairing Residual Contact Insecticide Use With Long‐Lasting Insecticide‐Incorporated Netting to Reduce Dispersal and Damage by Stored Product Insects

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 4, Page 501-514, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Long‐lasting insecticide‐incorporated netting (LLIN) can intercept insects and has shown promise for pest management before and after harvest in agriculture. Understanding how to incorporate LLIN into existing integrated pest management (IPM) programs, with other commonly used tactics like residual contact insecticides, can significantly ...

Evaluation of Residual Efficacy of Pyrethrin + Methoprene Aerosol on Two Dermestids: Impact of Particle Size, Species, and Temperature

open access: yesInsects, 2019
Residual effects of pyrethrin + methoprene aerosol dispensed at 4 and 16-µm particle sizes and an untreated control, was assessed against late-stage larvae of Trogoderma inclusum (LeConte), the larger cabinet beetle, and T.

Methoprene-Induced Genes in Workers of Formosan Subterranean Termites (Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki)

open access: yesInsects, 2020
Termites have a distinct polyphenism controlled by concise hormonal and molecular mechanisms. Workers undergo double molts to transform into soldiers (worker−presoldier−soldier).

Factors influencing community engagement approaches used in Aedes aegypti management in Cairns, Australia

open access: yesHealth Promotion Journal of Australia, Volume 36, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Issue Addressed An important part of preventing and managing Aedes‐borne mosquito disease outbreak risk is engaging the community. Research shows that high‐income countries tend to use top‐down measures for Aedes mosquito management, favouring educational approaches to engage the community over participatory approaches that actively involve ...

Involvement of Met and Kr-h1 in JH-Mediated Reproduction of Female Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel)

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Juvenile hormone (JH) prevents metamorphosis during insect larval stages and promotes adult reproductive processes. Krüppel-homolog 1 (Kr-h1), a zinc finger transcription factor assumed to be induced by JH via the JH receptor methoprene-tolerant (Met ...

The moulting arthropod: a complete genetic toolkit review

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 6, Page 2338-2375, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Exoskeletons are a defining character of all arthropods that provide physical support for their segmented bodies and appendages as well as protection from the environment and predation. This ubiquitous yet evolutionarily variable feature has been instrumental in facilitating the adoption of a variety of lifestyles and the exploitation of ...
