■ Abstract The genetic background of individual mosquito species and populations within those species influences the transmission of mosquito-borne pathogens to humans. Technical advances in contemporary genomics are contributing significantly to the detailed genetic analysis of this mosquito-pathogen interaction as well as all other aspects of mosquito biology, ecology, and evolution. A variet...

"Mosquitoes do not surrender to elephants," says Walter Lippman. In this book, P. F. Mattingly discusses some of the secrets that enable mosquitoes to be so courageous. The book is a comprehensive discussion of the natural history of mosquito-borne diseases and the mosquitoes which carry them. It primarily deals with current ecological concepts and succeeds in conveying a wealth of information ...

life table of almond moth, cadra cautella walker was studied on four main dry and semi-dry date palm varieties (deyri, zahedi, piarom, and rabbi) of iran under laboratory conditions. data were analyzed based on the age-stage, two-sex life table theory. duration of total preadult stages was 42.54, 45.79, 51.48 and 50.41 days on deyri, zahedi, piarom, and rabbi, respectively. the highest fecundit...

background: there is very little information about the mosquito fauna of qom province, central iran. by now only three species; anopheles claviger , an. multicolor , and an. superpictus have been reported in the province. to study mosquito fauna and providing a primary checklist, an investigation was carried out on a collection of mosquitoes in this province. methods: to study the mosquito (dip...

Malaria had being widely prevalent for a long time in Iran. Before starting any anti-malarial campaign in Iran about 60% of population was living in malaria endemic areas. In hyper-endemic areas, approximately 30 to 40% of the total mortality was due to malaria. The malariometric data, reported during 1921-1949 in the malaria surveys in some endemic areas, showed high endemicities of the diseas...
