Surveillance, insecticide resistance and control of an invasive Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) population in California

Abstract: The invasion and subsequent establishment in California of in Aedes aegypti 2013 has created new challenges for local mosquito abatement and vector control districts. Studies were undertaken to identify effective and economical strategies to monitor the abundance and spread of this mosquito species as well as for its control. Overall, BG Sentinel (BGS) traps were found to be the most sensitive trap type to measure abundance and spread into new locations. Autocidal-Gravid-Ovitraps (AGO-B), when placed at a site… Show more

“…14,15,[29][30][31][32][33][34] In the Americas, the co-occurrence of V1016I and F1534C has been found in the Caribbean Islands, Mexico, Brazil, Venezuela and the USA; in Africa, the co-occurrence of V1016I and F1534C in Ghana has been reported. 31,[35][36][37][38][39][40][41] In conclusion, we report here the co-occurrence of mutations V1016I and F1534C in populations of A. aegypti of the Colombian Caribbean region with variation in its allelic and genotypic frequencies. Although F1534C occurs more frequently in the populations studied compared to V1016I, the latter was correlated to resistance to pyrethroids in populations of A. aegypti of the Colombian Caribbean region.…”

“…However, the V1016G mutation has not been reported in Latin America [31,32,46,47]. Instead, mutation V1016I was found, and often coexists with F1534C in South and North America, such as Venezuela [48], three French overseas territories [49], Brazil [50,51,52], Mexico [53], and the USA [54]. More recently, V1016I and F1534C were detected in Ghana, Africa [55], and a new mutation, T1520I, was found along with the F1534C mutation in a population in India [56].…”

“…Of note, efforts to reduce costs by decreasing the number of traps deployed per house appear to result in decreased efficacy. A recent study in Clovis, CA, by Cornel et al [59] using a single AGO trap per house (144 houses in total) failed to significantly reduce adult Ae. aegypti populations compared to the reductions experienced in the three traps/house interventions performed in Puerto Rico.…”
