Abstract Background Surveillance of the host–anopheline mosquitoes’ interaction is important for assessing malaria transmission risk and guiding vector control. We assume that changes in malaria vector species’ feeding habits, as well as the su

Abstract Improved understanding of mosquito–plant feeding interactions can reveal insights into the ecological dynamics of pathogen transmission. In wild malaria vectors Anopheles gambiae s.l. and An. funestus group surveyed in selected dryland eco

Abstract Among the factors affecting the effectiveness of malaria control is poor knowledge of the entomologic drivers of the disease. We investigated anopheline populations as part of a baseline study to implement house screening of windows and door

Abstract In the Americas, the fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) exists in two genetically distinct strains, the corn (C) and rice (R) strains. Despite their names, these strains are not associated with host plant preferences but have been shown t

IntroductionPreviously, we documented that the malaria vector Anopheles gambiae responds to volatile emissions from the root exudate water of the invasive plant, Parthenium hysterophorus. However, the origin of the volatiles remains to be investigate

Abstract Background The fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda, is a devastating invasive pest and a threat to food security in Africa, with yield losses of 20–50%. Recent studies highlighted the importance of cereal crops such as maize and sor

Phlebotomine sand flies are medically important as vectors of the protozoan parasites that cause leishmaniasis and other bacterial and viral pathogens. Previous work demonstrated that both sexes of certain species of sandflies are attracted to 1-octe

Intraguild interactions are known to trigger competition among phytophagous insects that depend on the same food source, which may have implications on natural enemy performance. Here, we tested the hypothesis that intraguild interactions between the
