Long term use of insecticides in malaria vector control has been shown to alter the behavior
of vectors. Such behavioral shifts have the potential of undermining the effectiveness of …

Background The auto-dissemination approach has been shown effective at treating cryptic
refugia that remain unaffected by existing mosquito control methods. This approach relies on …

This paper presents a review of numerous items of published literature on the use of spatial
technology for malaria epidemiology in South Africa between 1930 and 2013. In particular …

This study describes the aquatic habitats, species composition, and the insecticide
resistance level of the mosquito Culex pipiens pallens in Shandong Province, China. A …

Background Agent-based modelling (ABM) has been used to simulate mosquito life cycles
and to evaluate vector control applications. However, most models lack sugar-feeding and …

Aim: The aim of this study is to investigate Anopheles gambiae larval tolerance, density-as a
function of survivorship-and the response of their detoxification enzymes to levels of various …

Malaria causes extensive morbidity and mortality in humans and results in significant
economic losses in India. The distribution of immature malaria-transmitting Anopheles …

Targeting malaria vector mosquitoes outdoors has become a research priority to address
residual malaria transmission. Mosquito larval source management provides an excellent …

Current malaria vector control strategies in Africa target indoor resting and biting mosquitoes
and rely heavily on a small number of insecticides. These interventions have lead to the …

Malaria transmission in West Africa is closely tied to climate, as rain fed water pools provide
breeding habitat for the anopheles mosquito vector, and temperature affects the mosquito's …
