breeding of aedes aegypti and a. simpsoni under the escarpment of the tanzanian plateau.villages under the escarpment of the tanzanian plateau were surveyed for breeding of aedes aegypti. in some places more than 27% of the water containers outside houses harboured a. aegypti larvae, while there was practically no breeding in containers inside houses. from 2% to 10% of tree holes contained a. aegypti larvae. in places, as many as 47 a. simpsoni larvae were collected from one pineapple plant, and the total mean number of larvae per pineapple was 6.6, while the percentage of plants w ...19724538907
seasonal changes in the larval populations of aedes aegypti in two biotopes in dar es salaam, tanzania.the seasonal dynamics of larval populations of aedes aegypti was studied in two different biotopes in dar es salaam, tanzania. the first biotope was located on the msasani peninsula on the coast 6 km north of dar es salaam, where a. aegypti breeds exclusively in coral rock holes. the population dynamics was studied during both the rainy and the dry season. seasonal changes in the density of a. aegypti larvae depend primarily on variation in rainfall. the population of larvae dropped to zero only ...19724539415
dry season survival of aedes aegypti eggs in various breeding sites in the dar es salaam area, tanzania.in field experiments in different breeding sites in a shaded suburban area, 7-40% of a. aegypti eggs survived a 120-day dry period. in a relatively unshaded coral area, only 3-23% of eggs survived 60 days in exposed sites, but 7-17% survived 120 days in shaded sites. survival in some sites was higher than in the laboratory at constant conditions.19724539825
host preferences of various strains of aedes aegypti and a. simpsoni as determined by an olfactometer.the author describes and illustrates a new type of olfactometer that can be used to determine the host preference of different strains of stegomyia mosquitos. experiments with human and animal hosts in tanzania showed that dark strains of a. aegypti are much less anthropophilic than light strains.19724540689
genetic manipulation of aedes aegypti: incorporation and maintenance of a genetic marker and a chromosomal translocation in natural populations.studies with aedes aegypti were undertaken to determine if an alien genotype can be (1) incorporated into a natural population and (2) maintained for several generations on its own without any subsequent introductions. such information is an essential prerequisite for successful application of any genetic control method. data from a walk-in, field population cage and from field releases of a genetic marker and a chromosomal translocation have demonstrated both genetic incorporation and persisten ...19734541148
sequential application of ultra-low-volume ground aerosols of fenitrothion for sustained control of aedes aegypti.a trial was carried out of the efficacy of fenitrothion ultra-low-volume aerosol applied by vehicle-mounted cold aerosol generator for the control of aedes aegypti. five applications of fenitrothion at intervals of 11-49 days at dosages of 511-1 095 ml/ha gave sustained control for 4-5 months in an area of some 14 ha containing 1 300 houses. immediate killing of adult mosquitos and some larvicidal effect interrupted oviposition and retarded the recovery of the mosquito population. sequential tre ...19734543550
breeding places and seasonal incidence of aedes aegypti, as assessed by the single-larva survey method.the single-larva survey method was employed to study the breeding places and seasonal incidence of aedes aegypti in dar es salaam, tanzania. from may 1968 to may 1969, 28 462 containers of water-located in approximately equal numbers indoors and outdoors-were investigated. the highest frequency of breeding (8.0%) of a. aegypti was observed in tires and motor parts. drums, barrels, water-pots, and other receptacles left outdoors showed a higher frequency (3.1%) than those kept indoors (0.6%). met ...19734544149
diel periodicity in the landing of aedes aegypti on man.the dynamics of transmission of disease agents by vectors depends, in part, on the probability of host-vector contact, which can vary with fluctuations of both host and vector. as important as seasonal variations is 24-hour periodicity in activity. periodicity in the landing of males and females of aedes aegypti on man has been assessed by means of catches of 15 hours or longer, with several persons as a bait. the assessments were made in a suburban area of tanzania and continued throughout one ...19734544150
arbovirus studies in luanda, angola. 1. virological and serological studies during a yellow fever epidemic.a yellow fever epidemic broke out in luanda, angola, in january 1971 and was halted in less than 3 months by prompt mass vaccination and intensive antimosquito measures. nine strains of yellow fever virus were isolated from hospitalized cases, but attempts to isolate the virus from aedes aegypti mosquitos failed. a serological survey for antibodies to arboviruses in 589 sera from unvaccinated persons showed that two arboviruses were circulating in the epidemic area: the yellow fever virus and th ...19734545154
arbovirus studies in luanda, angola. 2. virological and serological studies during an outbreak of dengue-like disease caused by the chikungunya virus.an outbreak of dengue-like disease was observed in luanda, angola, at the end of 1970 and beginning of 1971. chikungunya virus was isolated from the blood of a patient with typical symptoms of dengue and from a pool of aedes aegypti mosquitos. a survey for antibodies to arboviruses in the sera of persons living in luanda showed that the chikungunya virus was indeed responsible for the outbreak. the fact that this outbreak immediately preceded and continued concurrently with a yellow fever epidem ...19734545155
a large-scale field trial of ultra-low-volume fenitrothion applied by a portable mist blower for the control of aedes aegypti.long-term control of aedes aegypti, the vector of dengue haemorrhagic fever in thailand, was obtained by 2 thorough applications of fenitrothion mist applied at a target dosage rate of 0.1 ml per m(3) of room space. perfect control lasted for 6-7 months after treatment and densities were substantially reduced for up to a year after treatment. recovery of the population was still slow up to almost 16 months after treatment. this degree of control was achieved by the immediate mortalities produced ...19744549492
