Vector‐borne infectious diseases are still an important global health problem. Malaria is the
most important among them, mainly pediatric, life‐threatening disease. Malaria and other …

Highlights•Long-distance dispersal underlies the global threat of mosquito disease•Long-
distance dispersal and active flight should be analysed as distinct processes•Insecticide …

ABSTRACT A major insecticide resistance mechanism in insect pests is knock‐down
resistance (kdr) caused by mutations in the voltage‐gated sodium channel (Vgsc) gene …

Background Anopheles funestus is a leading vector of malaria in most parts of East and
Southern Africa, yet its ecology and responses to vector control remain poorly understood …

The primary control methods for the African malaria mosquito, Anopheles gambiae, are
based on insecticidal interventions. Emerging resistance to these compounds is therefore of …

Abstract The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) suffers from one of the highest malaria
burdens worldwide, but information on its Anopheles vector populations is relatively limited …

Background Insecticide resistance is jeopardising malaria control efforts in Africa.
Deciphering the evolutionary dynamics of mosquito populations country-wide is essential for …

Neonicotinoid insecticides (NNIs) are extensively used in agricultural production in China
due to their selective neurotoxicity towards target insects. In recent years, the rapid …

To keep ahead of the evolution of resistance to insecticides in mosquitoes, national malaria
control programmes must make use of a range of insecticides, both old and new, while …

Resistance to pyrethroid and organophosphate insecticides in the malaria vector Anopheles
gambiae (sl) is conferred by a variety of genetic mutations, including single nucleotide …
