          Abstract

          The susceptibility of field collected Aedes aegypti larvae was evaluated in terms of median lethal time (LT50) and final mortality, when treated with temephos, Bacillus thuringiensis var israelensis as well as mixtures of these two agents. Third instar larvae were shown to be more susceptible than early and late fourth instar ones to the entomopathogen. Survival of some individuals when exposed to temephos suggest possible resistance. Temporal synergism in early fourth instar larvae was detected when they were exposed to mixtures of Bti-temephos. The possibility of this integrated treatment is commented on.

          A susceptibilidade de larvas de Aedes aegypti coletadas no campo foi avaliada em termos do tempo letal mediano (TL50) e da mortalidade final, quando tratadas com temephos, Bacillus thuringiensis var israelensis ou misturas desses dois agentes. As larvas de terceiro estádio mostraram-se mais suceptíveis ao patógeno do que aquelas no início ou no fim do quarto estádio. A sobrevivência de alguns indivíduos aos tratamentos com temephos permite sugerir a possibilidade de resistência. Foi detectada a existência de sinergismo temporal, quando larvas no início do quarto estádio foram tratadas com as misturas do Bti com o temephos. A possibilidade do tratamento integrado é comentada.

          Insecticide resistance in mosquitoes: a pragmatic review.

          Descriptions of the World Health Organization standard methods of assessing susceptibility or resistance in larval and in adult mosquitoes are presented, and the evaluation of their results are discussed. Other susceptibility test methods are also mentioned, including those based on esterase zymograms. Recent work on the biochemical mechanisms of resistance and cross-resistance are reviewed, along with possible countermeasures for the problem of mosquito resistance, now known in 113 species of culicines and anophelines.
