This year's World Malaria Report reflects on gains made -- but calls for further action as other threats arise.

NAIROBI - The spread of a mosquito in East Africa that thrives in urban areas and is immune to insecticide is fuelling a surge in malaria that could reverse decades of progress against the disease ...

"Chromobacterium biopesticide overcomes insecticide resistance in malaria vector mosquitoes" was co-authored by Chinmay Tikhe, Sare Issiaka, Yuemei Dong, Mary Kefi, Mihra Tavadia, Etienne Bilgo ...

A novel CRISPR-based tool introduces insecticide-susceptible genes without them spreading uncontrollably. Insecticide use and insecticide resistance form a vicious cycle – insecticides cause ...

Young children with severe malaria show partial resistance to artemisinin, the the primary treatment for the disease, finds a new study led by Indiana University School of Medicine researchers ...

The researchers showed that the biopesticide efficiently kills both ordinary and chemical-pesticide-resistant mosquitoes when included in standard baits. Even at sub-lethal doses, the biopesticide ...

“We’re seeing malaria vectors shift to early morning and ... Smith/Abbie Trayler-Smith What if mosquitoes became resistant to all insecticides – or the malaria parasite to all antimalarials?

Researchers analyzed the genomes of hundreds of malaria parasites to determine which genetic variants are most likely to confer drug resistance. Researchers at University of California San Diego ...

Scientists at the University of California, San Diego, studied the genomes of numerous malaria parasites to identify the genetic variants most associated with drug resistance. Their findings ...

ANALYSIS | THE INDEPENDENT & AGENCIES | A study conducted in Uganda has found evidence of partial resistance to Artemisinin; the primary treatment for malaria in young children with severe forms of ...

A new study from Uganda provides the first evidence to date that resistance to a lifesaving malaria drug may be emerging in the group of patients that accounts for most of the world’s malaria ...
