Many studies investigating the ecology and evolution of mosquitoes rely on morphometric
measurements related to body size to estimate fecundity. Determining the most reliable …

For malaria control, the utility of transgenic vector Anopheles mosquitoes (Diptera:
Culicidae) refractory to Plasmodium transmission, will depend on their interbreeding with the …

Background The incidence of malaria in the Amazon is seasonal and mosquito vectorial
capacity parameters, including abundance and longevity, depend on quantitative and …

In the Tropics, there is substantial temporal and spatial overlap of diseases propagated by
anthropophilic mosquito vectors (such as malaria and dengue) and human helminth …

The attractiveness of oviposition site for malaria vector mosquitoes is dependent upon a
number of physical and chemical factors. Many aspects of mosquito behavior, including host …

Insect midgut microbial symbionts have been considered as an integral component in
thermal adaptation due to their differential thermal sensitivity. Altered midgut microbial …

In this study, the effects of rearing temperature on survival and development rate of pre-
imaginal stages and on wing length of adult Culex pipiens (Diptera: Culicidae) were …

Background The work described in this article forms part of a study to suppress a population
of the malaria vector Anopheles arabiensis in Northern State, Sudan, with the Sterile Insect …

Background Malaria prevalence differs between the two islands that comprise the
archipelago of São Tomé and Príncipe. This may be due to differences in the biology of local …

Background The effective measures for the control of malaria and filariasis vectors can be
achieved by targeting immature stages of anopheline and culicine mosquitoes in productive …
