mixture for controlling insecticide-resistant malaria vectors.	the spread of resistance to pyrethroids in the major afrotropical malaria vectors anopheles gambiae s.s. necessitates the development of new strategies to control resistant mosquito populations. to test the efficacy of nets treated with repellent and insecticide against susceptible and insecticide-resistant an. gambiae mosquito populations, we impregnated mosquito bed nets with an insect repellent mixed with a low dose of organophosphorous insecticide and tested them in a rice-growing area near ...	2008	18976553
beyond nature and nurture: phenotypic plasticity in blood-feeding behavior of anopheles gambiae s.s. when humans are not readily accessible.	to test for the effects of host accessibility on blood-feeding behavior, we assessed degrees of anthropophily of the malaria mosquito anopheles gambiae at two stages of the behavioral sequence of host foraging, in a rice growing area near bobo-dioulasso, burkina faso, where humans are not readily accessible because of years of generalized use of (mostly non-impregnated) bed nets. first, patterns of host selection were assessed by the identification of the blood meal origin of indoor-resting samp ...	2009	19996432
