Crepuscular Behavioral Variation and Profiling of Opsin Genes in Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles stephensi (Diptera: Culicidae)
We understand little about photo-preference and the molecular mechanisms governing vision-dependent behavior in vector mosquitoes. Investigations of the influence of photo-preference on adult mosquito behaviors such as endophagy and exophagy and endophily and exophily will enhance our ability to develop and deploy vector-targeted interventions and monitoring techniques. Our laboratory-based ana...
متن کاملSpatial and habitat distribution of Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles arabiensis (Diptera: Culicidae) in Banambani village, Mali.
We studied the larval distribution and composition of Anopheles arabiensis Patton, An. gambiae s.s. Giles, and its forms, among local habitats; and their association with the adults between these habitats in Banambani village, Mali during the mid-rainy seasons of 1997-1999. For species and form identification we used polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and PCR-restriction fragment-length polymorphi...
متن کاملResistance Mechanisms of Anopheles stephensi (Diptera: Culicidae) to Temephos
BACKGROUND Anopheles stephensi is a sub-tropical species and has been considered as one of the most important vector of human malaria throughout the Middle East and South Asian region including the malarious areas of southern Iran. Current reports confirmed An. stephensi resistance to temephos in Oman and India. However, there is no comprehensive research on mechanisms of temephos resistance in...
متن کاملThe salivary gland chromosomes of Anopheles ramsayi and its relationship with Anopheles stephensi (Culicidae: Diptera).
The process of speciation, interrelationship of the species and the evolution ary trends in the family culicidae have been studied by the various workers using the banding pattern of the salivary gland chromosomes. Based on a comparison of the salivary chromosome maps the phylogenetic kinship among the various sp ecies of the genus Anopheles, studied so far, is now well understood (Schreiber 19...
متن کاملMating affects egg maturation in Anopheles gambiae Giles (Diptera: Culicidae).
The effect of mating on egg development and the size of the female accessory glands during the gonotrophic cycle of Anopheles gambiae was investigated. Although females that received a measured meal of blood were more likely to produce an egg batch when they were mated, the increased reproduction was not the result of male accessory gland substances. Changes in the size of the female accessory ...
