Abstract

Anopheles species are vectors for malaria. To date, insecticide application has been the primary method for controlling mosquito disease vectors. Chemical interventions to control vectors may occasionally prove ineffective, due to the development of insecticide resistance. Target-site insensitivity is one of the primary mechanisms that contribute to resistance. This study aims to determine the G119S (mutation of glycine to serine) and L1014S (mutation of leucine to phenylalanine) mutation rates of Anopheles superpictus Grassi, 1899 (Culicidae: Anophelinae) and Anopheles sacharovi Favre, 1903 (Culicidae: Anophelinae) populations and their seasonal variations in the Aegean Region. For both A. superpictus and A. sacharovi, the G119S mutation was observed at a low frequency during all three periods. The mean L1014S frequency for A. sacharovi populations in the spring 2018, fall 2018, and spring 2019 periods was 0.063, 0.156, and 0.196, respectively. For A. superpictus populations, the frequencies were 0.025, 0.013, and 0.024, respectively. Pyrethroids, the most widely utilized insecticide in recent years, which are presumed to be effective, will ultimately exhibit reduced efficacy in some of these populations.

土耳其两种主要疟疾媒介超照按蚊和萨沙罗维按蚊（双翅目：库蚊科）种群的季节性耐药性状况

按蚊是疟疾的媒介。迄今为止，施用杀虫剂一直是控制蚊虫病媒的主要方法。由于杀虫剂抗药性的发展，控制病媒的化学干预措施有时可能被证明无效。靶位不敏感是导致耐药的主要机制之一。本研究旨在测定爱琴海地区1899年（库蚊科：按蚊科）格氏按蚊和1903年（库蚊科：按蚊科）萨哈罗维按蚊种群G119S（甘氨酸突变为丝氨酸）和L1014S（亮氨酸突变为苯丙氨酸）突变率及其季节变化。在这3个时期，超级伊蚊和萨哈罗维伊蚊的G119S突变频率均较低。2018年春季、2018年秋季和2019年春季沙颡鱼种群L1014S频次均值分别为0.063、0.156和0.196。超蠓种群的频率分别为0.025、0.013和0.024。拟除虫菊酯类杀虫剂是近年来使用最广泛的杀虫剂，被认为是有效的，但最终对其中一些种群的效果会下降。
