Effect of the chitin synthesis inhibitor triflumuron on the development, viability and reproduction of Aedes aegypti.
The control of Aedes aegypti is impaired due to the development of resistance to chemical insecticides. Insect Growth Regulators (IGR) exhibit distinct mechanisms of action and are considered potential vector control alternatives. Studies regarding the effects of sublethal IGR doses on the viability of resulting adults will contribute to eval-uating their impact in the field. We analyzed severa...
متن کاملAedes albopictus, Aedes fluviatilis, Culex quinquefasciatus, Anopheles aquasalis and Anopheles
The fat body is the main storage and intermediary metabolism organ of insects and is responsible for the synthesis and supply of haemolymph substances. It consists of a mass of cells located underneath the epidermis and, in some insects, the fat body also surrounds the digestive and reproductive organs (reviewed by Haunerland & Shirk 1995 and Roma et al. 2010). Fat body cells, known as trophocy...
متن کاملCharacterization of dengue virus in Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus spp. of mosquitoes: A study in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan
Dengue is a vector-borne disease caused by dengue virus. According to the recent report of CDC that one-third population of the world are at high risk with Dengue fever. The prevalence of the dengue hemorrhagic fever was found more in tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world. Aedes mosquitoes was reported as the main cause of transmission of dengue virus. So the current study was planned ...
متن کاملMalathion resistance in Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus after its use in Aedes aegypti control programs.
The continued widespread use of malathion in Aedes aegypti control programs in Latin America has generated insecticide resistance to this chemical in Culex quinquefasciatus but not in Ae. aegypti. To determine the extent of this resistance, the susceptibility of Cx. quinquefasciatus and Ae. aegypti from several countries to malathion was evaluated. Bioassay results indicated that all Ae. aegypt...
متن کاملCompetence of Aedes aegypti, Ae. albopictus, and Culex quinquefasciatus Mosquitoes as Zika Virus Vectors, China
In China, the prevention and control of Zika virus disease has been a public health threat since the first imported case was reported in February 2016. To determine the vector competence of potential vector mosquito species, we experimentally infected Aedes aegypti, Ae. albopictus, and Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes and determined infection rates, dissemination rates, and transmission rates....
