| laboratory and field efficacy of bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis and bacillus sphaericus against anopheles gambiae s.l. and culex quinquefasciatus in ouagadougou, burkina faso. | two wettable powders (bactimos and vectobac) and one flowable concentrate (teknar) of bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis (b.t.i.) and primary powders of bacillus sphaericus isolates 1593 and 2362 were evaluated (laboratory) against field-collected larvae of anopheles gambiae s.l. and culex quinquefasciatus in ouagadougou, burkina faso. bactimos, vectobac and a corn-cob b.t.i. formulation (abg-6138g) were field tested against cx. quinquefasciatus and an. gambiae s.l. the isolates of b. sphae ... | 1987 | 3504891 |
| experimental formulations of bacillus sphaericus and b. thuringiensis israelensis against culex quinquefasciatus and anopheles gambiae (diptera: culicidae) in burkina faso. | efficacies of locally produced, sustained release granular formulations of bacillus sphaericus (bs) strain 2362 and b. thuringiensis israelensis (bti) were compared with commercial liquid concentrates of the same bacteria in cesspits and rain-filled puddles in ouagadougou, burkina faso. duration of control was dependent on the product, the transient nature of some sites, and the target mosquito larvae. bs granules applied at the rate of 3.0 g/m2 (30 kg/ha) reduced culex quinquefasciatus say 99% ... | 1999 | 10071494 |
