Entomological studies on the impact of a small-scale irrigation scheme on malaria transmission around Ziway, Ethiopia
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the impact of a small-scale irrigation scheme on the level of malaria transmission in a semi-arid area, and found that due to poorly maintained irrigation structures, the irrigation scheme created conducive breeding grounds for malaria vector species, particularly during the dry season.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The present study showed that Ph. orientalis females exhibited different nocturnal activity patterns with a peak in the early part of the night in the highland and in the latter part of The lowland areas, as the risk of acquiring L. donovani infections vary in the two areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasmodium falciparum gametocyte-induced volatiles enhance attraction of Anopheles mosquitoes in the field.
TL;DR: The findings of the present study revealed that the HMBPP-induced odour blend, when augmented with human body odour, is attractive to anopheline mosquitoes and could be used as a complementary vector control tool along with existing strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioactive Chemical Constituents from the Leaf of Oreosyce africana Hook.f (Cucurbitaceae) with Mosquitocidal Activities against Adult Anopheles arabiensis, the Principal Malaria Vector in Ethiopia
TL;DR: The results suggest that the purified fractions of O. africana possess a very high adulticidal effect against the principal malaria vector, An.
