ABSTRACT The heavy reliance on pyrethroid‐based interventions has largely driven insecticide resistance in malaria vectors, accelerating the spread of resistant strains, including resistant Anopheles funestus strains. The efficacy of insecticide‐based interventions, especially insecticide‐treated nets (ITNs), the cornerstone of malaria control and ...

Pyriproxyfen is metabolized by P450s associated with pyrethroid resistance in An. gambiae
Pyrethroid resistance is widespread in the malaria vector Anopheles gambiae leading to concerns about the future efficacy of bednets with pyrethroids as the sole active ingredient. The incorporation of pyriproxyfen (PPF), a juvenile hormone analogue, into pyrethroid treated bednets is being trialed in Africa.

Context Organophosphates and chitin synthesis inhibitor pesticides pose a significant indirect threat to fish populations, necessitating effective remedial measures. Objective Supplementation with vitamin C (Vit C) in fish feed as a counteracting strategy to mitigate pesticides effect was explored in silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix ...

Insecticide resistance in Anopheles mosquitoes poses a growing challenge to malaria elimination efforts across sub‐Saharan Africa, threatening the continued effectiveness of frontline interventions. Among the metabolic mechanisms driving resistance, the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase gene CYP9K1 has been increasingly associated with detoxification and ...

Use of Cold Plasma for Phytosanitation and Decontamination of Food Products: A Review
Applications of cold plasma in food industry. ABSTRACT Consumers are increasingly demanding healthy and nutrient‐rich food. Although conventional thermal processing techniques (pasteurization, sterilization, and blanching) ensure food safety and extend shelf life, they often negatively impact nutritional value and sensory quality, and they also consume

A vacuolar type ATPase subunit B (vATPase‐B) gene is identified and expressed in the midgut of Bemisia tabaci and Frankliniella occidentalis. The double‐stranded RNA (dsRNA) specific to vATPase‐B was expressed in hot peppers by virus‐induced gene silencing (VIGS) and killed both whitefly and thrips.

ABSTRACT Large epidemiological impacts resulting from disease vector control interventions are typically associated with significant disruption of vector populations. While vector density is a frequently measured response, impacts on demography and connectivity are suspected but rarely quantified.
