Distribution of Aedes () cretinus in Türkiye.

Objective: , a white and black stripped , shares morphological similarities with and which are among the most important vectors and invasive species in the world. Due to its limited distribution and low population density, information on the biology and ecology of the species has been limited so far. This study aimed to determine distribution of Ae.

Potential of 3-octanone as a lure and kill agent for control of the Brown garden snail.

The brown garden snail (Cornu aspersum) is a major agricultural pest, causing damage to a wide range of economically important crops. Withdrawal or restricted use of pollutant molluscicides like metaldehyde has prompted a search for more benign control products. This study investigated the response of snails to 3-octanone; a volatile organic compound (VOCs) produced by the insect pathogenic fungus Metarhizium brunneum.

Arthropod vectors of disease agents: Their role in public and veterinary health in Turkiye and their control measures.

Mosquitoes, sandflies, and ticks are hematophagous arthropods that pose a huge threat to public and veterinary health. They are capable of serving as vectors of disease agents that can and have caused explosive epidemics affecting millions of people and animals. Several factors like climate change, urbanization, and international travel contribute substantially to the persistence and dispersal of these vectors from their established areas to newly invaded areas.

Detection of L1014F knockdown resistance mutation in Culex tritaeniorhynchus populations.

Culex tritaeniorhynchus is a major Japanese encephalitis virus vector distributed in Southeast Asia and surrounding countries. The aim of the present study is to investigate insecticide resistance status among 10 Cx. tritaeniorhynchus populations of the Mediterranean region of Turkey.

Community acceptability of dengue fever surveillance using unmanned aerial vehicles: A cross-sectional study in Malaysia, Mexico, and Turkey.

Surveillance is a critical component of any dengue prevention and control program. There is an increasing effort to use drones in mosquito control surveillance. Due to the novelty of drones, data are scarce on the impact and acceptance of their use in the communities to collect health-related data.

Insecticide Resistance and Mechanisms of Populations in the Mediterranean and Aegean Regions of Turkey During 2017-2018.

Background: has a significant public health importance since it is an important vector of West Nile virus and Rift Valley fever virus. We, therefore, aimed to determine the insecticide resistance level in populations in the Aegean and Mediterranean regions of Turkey.

Methods: Bioassays have been carried out against Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) (4%), Malathion (5%), Fenitrothion (1%), Propoxur (0.

The first implementation of allele-specific primers for detecting the knockdown and acetylcholinesterase target site mutations in malaria vector, Anopheles sacharovi.

Anopheles sacharovi, a primer malaria vector species of Turkey, have a significant public health importance. It is aimed to determine the insecticide resistance status in Anopheles sacharovi populations in the Aegean and Mediterranean regions of Turkey. A total of 1638 individuals were analysed from 15 populations.

Current insecticide resistance status in Anopheles sacharovi and Anopheles superpictus populations in former malaria endemic areas of Turkey.

Anopheles sacharovi and Anopheles superpictus have a significant public health importance since they are primer and seconder malaria vectors of Turkey, respectively. As a result of intensive insecticide usage in historically malaria endemic regions of Turkey for long years, insecticide resistance problem has occurred inevitably. In this study, we aimed to investigate the involvement of the detoxification enzymes in insecticide resistance in Turkish An.

Distribution pattern and genetic structure of Aedes zammitii (Diptera: Culicidae) along the Mediterranean and Aegean coasts of Turkey.

The Mariae species complex, consisting of Aedes mariae, Aedes phoeniciae, and Aedes zammitii, has a limited distribution worldwide. All three species are found in rocky habitats on the coastal areas of Mediterranean countries. Aedes phoeniciae and Ae.
