Multiple insecticide resistance in Anopheles culicifacies s.l. (Diptera: Culicidae) in east-central India

Bionomics of Anopheles fluviatilis and Anopheles culicifacies (Diptera: Culicidae) in Relation to Malaria Transmission in East-Central India

The southern districts of Odisha State in east-central India have been highly endemic for falciparum malaria for many decades. However, there is no adequate information on the abundance of the vector species or their bionomics in relation to space and time in these districts. Therefore, a study was carried out on the entomological aspects of malaria transmission to generate such information. Co...

Insecticide resistance status in Anopheles culicifacies in Madhya Pradesh, central India.

status of insecticide resistance in anopheles culicifacies (diptera: culicidae) in ghasreghand district, sistan and baluchistan province, iran, (1997)

anopheles culicifacies s.l. plays an important role in transmission of malaria in sistan and baluchistan province, southeastern iran. adult susceptibility test on fieltt-collccled mosquitoes was conducted in ohasreghand district. who diagnostic test procedures revealed that adult females were resistant to 0.4% dieuirin (mortality 64.5 ± 3.13), tolerant to 0.1% propoxur (mortality 88.5 ± 2.24) a...

Triple insecticide resistance in Anopheles culicifacies: a practical impediment for malaria control in Odisha State, India

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES In Odisha State, the control of malaria vectors has become dependent on synthetic pyrethroids, which are used for treatment of all approved long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs). The vast use of just one class of insecticide has led to the problem of resistance to insecticides in malaria vectors. One of the major malaria vectors in Odisha State is Anopheles culicifacies...
