| development of a methodology for malariogenic stratification as a tool for malaria control. | modified plan of operation (mpo) for malaria control launched in 1977 failed to curb malaria incidence beyond about 2 million cases per annum and thus necessitated development of multipronged malaria control strategies based upon malariogenic stratification. a model for such stratification based upon six most sensitive, but quantifiable, epidemiological parameters for which records are easily available at phc level, namely, topography, average annual rainfall, vector(s), average annual parasite ... | 1990 | 2230013 |
| isolation of japanese encephalitis virus from mosquitoes collected in karnataka state, india from 1985 to 1987. | detection and isolation of japanese encephalitis (je) virus using mosquito inoculation and immunofluorescence techniques were attempted from female mosquitoes collected in je endemic areas of kolar and mandya districts of karnataka state, india, from 1985 to 1987. 65,388 mosquitoes consisting of 19 species in 1541 pools were processed. of these, 18 pools showed the presence of je virus antigen. je virus was isolated from 9 pools, 3 of culex gelidus, 2 of c. tritaeniorhynchus, and one each of c. ... | 1989 | 2575809 |

| the scope and limitations of insecticide spraying in rural vector control programmes in the states of karnataka and tamil nadu in india. | the resurgence of malaria in india began in 1966 and the states of karnataka and tamil nadu were no exception to this phenomenon. in both states the peak occurrence came in 1976. malaria was largely confined to highly vulnerable and receptive areas. the problem of increased incidence was particularly associated with the development of several irrigation and hydro-electric schemes. improperly maintained irrigation systems and reservoirs provided ideal breeding grounds. the present paper examines ... | 1982 | 6206995 |

| larvivorous fish in wells target the malaria vector sibling species of the anopheles culicifacies complex in villages in karnataka, india. | malaria was a major problem in a sericulture area of karnataka, south india, where anopheles culicifacies s.l. and a. fluviatilis s.l. were considered to be the main vectors. sibling species complexes of these two species were analysed in three ecologically different villages. among a. culicifacies, only sibling species a and b were found. in puram, a village with 22 wells, species a predominated; species b predominated in a village with four wells and a stream, and in a village with a stream an ... | 2005 | 15607336 |
| a community-based health education programme for bio-environmental control of malaria through folk theatre (kalajatha) in rural india. | health education is an important component in disease control programme. kalajatha is a popular, traditional art form of folk theatre depicting various life processes of a local socio-cultural setting. it is an effective medium of mass communication in the indian sub-continent especially in rural areas. using this medium, an operational feasibility health education programme was carried out for malaria control. | 2006 | 17173672 |
| mosquitoes of the mangrove forests of india: part six--kundapur, karnataka and kannur, kerala. | mosquitoes of 26 species belonging to 16 subgenera and 11 genera were recorded in the kundapur mangroves of karnataka, and 17 species belonging to 11 subgenera and 7 genera were recorded in the mangroves of kannur, kerala along the west coast of india. genera recorded were aedes, anopheles, armigeres, culex, heizmannia, lutzia, mansonia, ochlerotatus, tripteroides, uranotaenia, and verrallina. species common to both mangrove forests were ae. albopictus, ae. vittatus, an. jamesi, ar. subalbatus, ... | 2006 | 17304922 |
| mosquito records from a hot and dry climatic area experiencing frequent outbreaks of japanese encephalitis, bellary district, karnataka, india. | mosquito species occurring in bellary district, karnataka, india were surveyed for japanese encephalitis (je) and west nile virus (wnv) from 2001 to 2003. a total of 37 mosquito species in 6 genera were recovered from larval and adult habitats. aedes, anopheles and culex were represented by 11 species each, mansonia by 2 species, and armigeres and lutzia by a single species. a total of 68,506 mosquitoes belonging to 20 species were collected at dusk. most (74.6%) were cx. tritaeniorhynchus and o ... | 2008 | 18437807 |
| larvicidal activity of oak quercus infectoria oliv. (fagaceae) gall extracts against anopheles stephensi liston. | there is a growing interest in the use of botanical insecticides to reduce the use of synthetic pesticides in order to avoid environmental side effects. anopheles stephensi is the primary vector of urban malaria, an endemic disease in india. so, an effort to assay an. stephensi larvae with gall extracts of quercus infectoria was made under laboratory conditions at mysore. ethyl-acetate extract was found to be the most effective of all the five extracts tested for larvicidal activity against the ... | 2009 | 19148681 |
| reduced susceptibility to selected synthetic pyrethroids in urban malaria vector anopheles stephensi: a case study in mangalore city, south india. | synthetic pyrethroids are potent insecticides most commonly used in the vector control programme. these are applied for indoor residual sprays, space sprays and in impregnated bed nets. resistance reduces the efficacy of insecticides. thus, the susceptibility status of the target vector(s) is monitored routinely to select the effective ones. a study was undertaken in a malaria endemic coastal city mangalore, karnataka, south india, against the known malaria vector anopheles stephensi. | 2010 | 20573246 |
