Transmission of pathogens by mosquito vectors pose serious challenges to public health. Controlling the vectors is a promising option in preventing the spread of infectious agents. Several chemical approaches though effectively control mosquitoes, proved to cause side effects including resistant mosquito species and environmental contamination. Green chemistry mediated nanoparticles synthesis is simple, quick, economically modest and environmentally safe and hence could be a safe alternative. The purpose of this review is to categorise, analyse, and organise the main findings from research papers on plant extract mediated zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) with potential larvicidal properties. The investigation involved analysing the published literature from different scientific databases. The main focus was on identifying scientific reports on the green synthesized ZnO-NPs that showed the larvicidal potency (LC50) less than 25 μg/mL. Further, the review discusses the various methods of synthesis of ZnO-NPs and their mechanism of toxicity against mosquito larvae. The consolidated and organized information presented in this review can be effectively utilized for the design, development, and optimization of phyto-mediate nanoparticles synthesis with potential larvicidal activity. The summarized data provides a foundation for further research and application in the field of herbal insecticides, particularly focusing on their larvicidal properties.

Mosquitoes are the important vectors of several arthropod diseases, which remain a prioritized domain for epidemiology research. Mosquito vector control strategies have classically relied on adult management using chemical insecticides like synthetic pyrethroids. The indiscriminate and non-judicial practice of pesticides has caused tolerance of mosquito population to insecticides of choice. The evolvement of tolerance relies on the expression of few orinterplay of many gene products, belonging to cytochrome P450 and carboxylesterase and glutathione superfamily. The present investigation involves the expression pattern of six cytochrome P450 and ve esterase candidate genes CYP6M2, CYP6AA7, CYP6Z2, CYP9J34, CYP6BTQ6B7, CYP6AE14 and α-Esterase, Esterase B1, Neuroactin, KM234968, KM234962 in larval and adults Culex quinquefasciatus permethrin resistance strain. Results found expression of the genes CYP6AA7 by 10 folds in larval PerRes and an adult, the expression was only 4.5 folds (P < 0.001; F-73.85), while CYP6M2remains unchanged (P > 0.05; F-0.2496). Esterase gene was 9.0 folds over-expressed in larva and 2.5 folds in adults (P < 0.001; F-27.75). Based on the expression pro le the present study suggests that the cytochrome P450CYP6A and esterase gene family may contribute metabolic resistance to permethrin in larval and adult Cx. quinquefasciatus strain.
