Genetic variation in wild Anopheles arabiensis Patton of Mwea Irrigation Scheme, Kenya
(Cambridge University Press, 1987)
Electrophoretic variation was determined at eight enzyme loci in Anopheles arabiensis from four villages in Mwea Irrigation Scheme, Kenya. Seven loci had polymorphic alíeles of which at least two were common. Pooled allele ...
Seasonal population changes and malaria transmission potential of Anopheles pharoensis and the minor anophelines in Mwea Irrigation Scheme, Kenya
(1989)
A study in 1984 and 1985 showed that Anopheles gambiae s.l. and An. pharoensis were the major anophelines in Mwea Irrigation Scheme, Kenya, constituting 83.86% and 15.69% of the catch respectively. Four minor species made ...
Comparative dehydrogenase activity during the ontogenesis of the yellow fever mosquito Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti L. (diptera:culicidae)
(Elsevier, 1980)
α-GPDH in most active in adults, LDH in third instar larvae, and MDH in third instar larvac.
During pre-pupal growth, LDH is the most active enzyme, followed by MDH and α-GPDH; while during post-pupal growth, MDH is ...
Field studies of larval Anopheles arabiensis Patton of Mwea Irrigation Scheme, Kenya
(Cambridge University Press, 1989)
Between May 1984 and December 1985, the population of immature stages of Anopheles arabiensis was sampled by the dip method at sites close to two villages in Mwea Irrigation Scheme, Kenya. Larval presence corresponded to ...
Y-autosome genetic sexing strain of Anopheles albimanus (Diptera: Culicidae)
(1985)
Stripe (st+) is a dominant trait on chromosome 3R in region 33B on the cytological chromosome map of Anopheles albimanus. It is expressed as a white longitudinal stripe in fourth stage larvae and pupae, and marks a Y-autosome ...
Evaluation of Melia volkensii extract fractions as mosquito larvicides
(1988)
A standardized fraction of Melia volkensii fruit kernel extract was tested against Anopheles arabiensis mosquito larvae. The LC50 in 48 hr was 5.4 micrograms/ml. At low concentrations this fraction had growth inhibiting ...
