Odorant-Binding Proteins of the Malaria Mosquito Anopheles funestus sensu stricto
BACKGROUND The mosquito Anopheles funestus is one of the major malaria vector species in sub-Saharan Africa. Olfaction is essential in guiding mosquito behaviors. Odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) are highly expressed in insect olfactory tissues and involved in the first step of odorant reception. An improved understanding of the function of malaria mosquito OBPs may contribute to identifying new...
متن کاملSalinity tolerance of Anopheles farauti Laveran sensu stricto.
To assess the salt tolerance of the malaria vector Anopheles farauti sensu stricto, larvae were collected from a freshwater environment on the outskirts of Honiara, Solomon Islands and placed in trays containing water with salinity varying from freshwater to seawater. Dead larvae and pupae and emerged adults were recorded and preserved. Most adults and nearly half of the larvae and pupae were t...

متن کاملStatus of Insecticide Susceptibility in Anopheles gambiae Sensu Lato and Anopheles funestus Mosquitoes from Western Kenya
The status of resistance was investigated in Anopheles gambiae sensu lato and An. funestus (Diptera: Culicidae) mosquitoes from western Kenya to four classes of insecticides approved by World Health Organization for indoor residual spraying. The prevalence of the knockdown-resistance (kdr) mutation associated with resistance to pyrethroids and DDT was determined in An. gambiae s.l.. Standard Wo...
متن کاملSusceptibility to three pyrethroids and detection of knockdown resistance mutation in Ghanaian Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto.
Although insecticides play a crucial role in malaria control programs, this strategy is threatened by the development of resistance in the vectors to commonly used public health insecticides. Due to their known efficacy and lower toxicity to humans and non-target organisms, pyrethroids have been used in many vector control projects. In West Africa, pyrethroid resistance in the major malaria vec...
