Results and Impacts of the Integrated Land and Water Management for Adaptation to Climate Variability and Change (ILWAC) Project: Evaluation Report por Kizito, Fred, Mwongera, Caroline, Pondi, Brian, Mwungu, Chris M., Odhiambo, Collins, Koech, Nicholas, Shikuku, Kelvin Mashisia, Nkonya, Ephraim M., Nigussie, Likie, Appoh, Richard K., Touré, Abdoulaye, Sakana, Naomi, Billard, Benjamin, Jalloh, Abdulai, Bamba, Cheikh Ahmadou, Kuiseu, Julienne, Kouamé, Kouadio, Akana, David

“…ILWAC increased significantly the value of assets to almost 90%; a factor attributable to additional assets that were distributed to farmer groups such as the case of Gambia, Senegal and Sierra Leone. This study therefore confirms that more assets in ILWAC supported households offered better livelihood options than those in the control group. …”

Using artificial odors to optimize attractiveness of host decoy traps to malaria vectors por Akoton, R., Sawadogo, S.P., Tossou, E., Nikiema, A.S., Tchigossou, G., Sovegnon, P.M., Djogbenou, L., Zeukeng, F., Hawkes, F.M., Dabire, R.K., Djouaka, R., Gibson, G.

“…The trap using synthetic human odor alone caught the fewest An. gambiae s.l. compared to the other baited traps. Both Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles gambiae were caught by each trap, with a predominance of An. coluzzii. …”

Spatio-temporal dynamics of malaria vector niche overlaps in Africa por Ibrahim, E.A., Odindi, J., Wamalwa, M., Tonnang, H.E.Z.

“…We employed a dynamic cellular automata (CA) model to map niche overlaps among primary (Anopheles gambiae complex, An. funestus group) and secondary (An. pharoensis, An. coustani) malaria vectors across African, using open-access environmental and vector occurrence datasets sourced from open-access geospatial portals, and spanning 1985 to 2021. …”

Using non-insecticidal traps indoors can complement insecticide-treated nets to target insecticide-resistant malaria vectors por Akoton, R., Sovegnon, P.M., Djihinto, O.Y., Medjigbodo, A.A., Agonhossou, R., Adegnika, A.A., Gibson, G., Djouaka, R.F., Hawkes, F.M., Djogbenou, S.L.

“…In the present study, a mosquito collection technique, the Host Decoy Trap (HDT), was coupled with standard ITNs as a complementary intervention, and its effectiveness against insecticide-resistant Anopheles gambiae s.l. was assessed in experimental huts.…”

Resistance to neonicotinoids is associated with metabolic detoxification mechanisms in Anopheles coluzzii from agricultural and urban sites in southern Benin por Tchigossou, G., Dossou, C., Tepa-Yotto, G., Koto, M., Atoyebi, S.M., Tossou, E., Adanzounon, D., Gouété, M., Sina, H., Tchouakui, M., Dione, Michel M., Wondji, C., Djouaka, R.

“…Material and methods: <i>An. gambiae sl.</i> larvae were collected from three urban sites and two agricultural sites in southern Benin. …”

Sugar host preferences in adult Anopheles coluzzii por Malmgren, Louise

“…Nonetheless, studies on sugar source preferences on females of the principal malaria vectors have demonstrated the existence of sugar attraction and feeding. Females of An. gambiae s.l. appear to display polymorphism for blood host preference, which has led to the suggestion that their response to nectar stimuli is similarly genetically based. …”

Sequencing of Culex quinquefasciatus establishes a platform for mosquito comparative genomics por Arensburger, P., Megy, K., Waterhouse, Robert M., Abrudan, J., Amedeo, P., Antelo, B., Bartholomay, L., Bidwell, S., Caler, E., Camara, F., Campbell, C.L., Campbell, K.S., Casola, C., Castro, M.T., Chandramouliswaran, I., Chapman, S.B., Christley, S., Costas, J., Eisenstadt, E., Feschotte, C., Fraser-Liggett, C.M., Guigo, R., Haas, B., Hammond, M., Hansson, B.S., Hemingway, J., Hill, S.R., Howarth, C., Ignell, R., Kennedy, R.C., Kodira, C.D., Lobo, N.F., Mao, C., Mayhew, G., Michel, K., Mori, A., Liu, N., Naveira, H., Nene, Vishvanath M.

“…Here, we describe the genomic sequence of C. quinquefasciatus: Its repertoire of 18,883 protein-coding genes is 22% larger than that of Aedes aegypti and 52% larger than that of Anopheles gambiae with multiple gene-family expansions, including olfactory and gustatory receptors, salivary gland genes, and genes associated with xenobiotic detoxification.…”

Preliminary efficacy investigations of oral fipronil against Anopheles arabiensis when administered to Zebu cattle (Bos indicus) under field conditions por Poché, R.M., Githaka, Naftaly W., Gool, F. van, Kading, R.C., Hartman, D., Polyakova, L., Abworo, Edward O., Nene, Vishvanath M., Lozano Fuentes, S.

“…The indoor resting density of An. gambiae s.s. was not significantly different between the treatment (T1, T2) and their corresponding control plots (C1, C2). …”

Spatial-temporal coupling of malaria vector habitat suitability and biting probability por Aduvukha, G.R., Abdel-Rahman, E.M., Mutanga, O., Odindi, J., Tonnang, H.E.Z.

“…An independent set of validation data with An. gambiae complex biting observations (n =25) for the years (2017-2021) was used. …”

Screening for Theileria parva secretory gene products by functional analysis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae por Musembi, S., Janoo, R.T.K., Sohanpal, B.K., Ochanda, H., Ole-MoiYoi, O.K., Bishop, Richard P., Nene, Vishvanath M.

“…This system is dependent on successive rounds of enrichment of plasmid recovered from transfected cells and has been used to identify many novel higher eukaryotic secretory proteins (5,6) including secreted proteins from the salivary glands of Anopheles gambiae (7). A simplified SST method has been described that exploits the requirement of a secreted enzyme in permitting growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae when sucrose is the sole carbon source (8,9). …”

Seasonal variation in mosquito abundance and environmental predictors in semi-pastoral southern Kenya: implications for endemic Rift Valley fever por Gerken, Keli N., Olubowa, Richard R., Chiuya, Tatenda, Korir, Max, Fèvre, Eric M., Stringer, A., Morse, A., Baylis, M.

“…Traps placed at households in cropland areas hosted significantly more mosquitoes overall and were associated with more Anopheles spp., predominantly Anopheles gambiae (Kruskal–Wallis χ2 = 6.9, df = 2, P = 0.03), while those in shrubland areas had more Aedes aegypti (Kruskal–Wallis χ2 = 11.9, df = 2, P = 0.002). …”
