Field-simulated residual efficacy of betacyfluthrin against Anopheles sinensis Wiedemann.
The residual efficacy of a relatively new pyrethroid, betacyfluthrin was compared with DDT against Anopheles sinensis Wiedemann in some village houses in Penang, Malaysia, for a period of 30 weeks. Efficacy was determined by exposing laboratory-cultured An. sinensis mosquitos to treated wall surfaces with either betacyfluthrin at 15 and 25 mg/m2 or DDT at 2,000 mg/m2 for one hour. Betacyfluthri...
متن کاملBiology, Bionomics and Molecular Biology of Anopheles sinensis Wiedemann 1828 (Diptera: Culicidae), Main Malaria Vector in China
China has set a goal to eliminate all malaria in the country by 2020, but it is unclear if current understanding of malaria vectors and transmission is sufficient to achieve this objective. Anopheles sinensis is the most widespread malaria vector specie in China, which is also responsible for vivax malaria outbreak in central China. We reviewed literature from 1954 to 2016 on An. sinensis with ...
متن کاملOrganization of olfactory centres in the malaria mosquito Anopheles gambiae
Mosquitoes are vectors for multiple infectious human diseases and use a variety of sensory cues (olfactory, temperature, humidity and visual) to locate a human host. A comprehensive understanding of the circuitry underlying sensory signalling in the mosquito brain is lacking. Here we used the Q-system of binary gene expression to develop transgenic lines of Anopheles gambiae in which olfactory ...
متن کاملThe genome sequence of the malaria mosquito Anopheles gambiae.
Anopheles gambiae is the principal vector of malaria, a disease that afflicts more than 500 million people and causes more than 1 million deaths each year. Tenfold shotgun sequence coverage was obtained from the PEST strain of A. gambiae and assembled into scaffolds that span 278 million base pairs. A total of 91% of the genome was organized in 303 scaffolds; the largest scaffold was 23.1 milli...
متن کاملFemale-biased gene expression in the malaria mosquito Anopheles gambiae
Females of the malaria-carrying mosquito, Anopheles gambiae, must deal with a number of tasks never confronted by males, including blood-feeding and defense against Plasmodium infection. Here, we examine global gene expression differences between the sexes in A. gambiae via Affymetrix GeneChip® microarrays and find a dramatic over-representation of genes expressed more highly in females. Approx...
