Testing Anopheles larvae and adults using standard bioassays reveals susceptibility to chlorfenapyr (pyrrole) while highlighting variability between species

This study tests Anopheles larvae and adults using bioassays to assess susceptibility to chlorfenapyr, finding variability between species and populations.

Vegetable oil surfactants are synergists that can bias neonicotinoid susceptibility testing in adult mosquitoes.

This study shows vegetable oil surfactants enhance neonicotinoid toxicity in mosquitoes, potentially skewing resistance testing results.

Chronic exposure of mosquito larvae to pesticide residues endangers a new generation of agrochemicals repurposed for malaria prevention.

The paper investigates the effects of chronic pesticide exposure on mosquito larvae and finds some populations are pre-adapted to resist neonicotinoids.

Enhancing the efficacy of neonicotinoids against mosquitoes and overcoming resistance issues.

This study evaluates the efficacy of neonicotinoids against malaria vectors in Sub-Saharan Africa and identifies synergists to enhance their effectiveness.

Resistance to clothianidin reduces the efficacy of SumiShield 50WG, a neonicotinoid formulation for indoor residual spraying, against Anopheles gambiae

The paper tests if clothianidin resistance affects the efficacy of SumiShield 50WG against Anopheles gambiae and finds that resistance reduces its effectiveness.

Genomic insights into adaptive divergence and speciation among malaria vectors of the Anopheles nili group

The paper examines genomic differentiation in Anopheles nili group mosquitoes to understand adaptive divergence and speciation, finding strong population structure and high FST values between divergent populations.

Extensive genetic diversity among populations of the malaria mosquito Anopheles moucheti revealed by population genomics

This study uses population genomics to analyze genetic diversity in Anopheles moucheti, revealing extensive diversity and low genetic differentiation across populations.

Chromosome arm specific patterns of polymorphism associated with chromosomal inversions in the major African malaria vector, Anopheles funestus

The paper analyzes genetic variation in two Anopheles funestus populations, finding that chromosomal inversions significantly reduce nucleotide diversity and drive genetic divergence.

Pollutants and insecticides drive local adaptation in African malaria mosquitoes

This study identifies genetic differentiation and selection on xenobiotic resistance genes in urban and rural Anopheles mosquitoes due to pollutants and insecticides.
