Rodents are considered one of the animal pests with the greatest impact on agricultural production and public health. Anticoagulant rodenticides (ARs), used as one of the most effective ways to control rodent populations worldwide. ARs inhibit the vitamin K 2,3-epoxide reductase (VKORC1) enzyme caus...
The quality and quantity of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) extracted from insects are extremely important in genomic research. We tested the hypothesis that DNA can be extracted from bed bugs when stored in different preservatives at various temperatures. The bed bugs were stored in five preservatives ...
This study was carried out to investigate the potential vectors and mosquito infection rates of Dirofilaria immitis and D. repens in Tula region which is located in central part of Russia. Mosquitoes were captured throughout three mosquito seasons (2013–2015). A total of 719 genomic DNA pools, extra...
The development of resistance against insecticides, which are primarily used for bed bug (Cimex lectularius) control, is considered to one of the main reasons for the worldwide expansion of this pest. This study provides evidence of the occurrence of resistance and the mechanisms associated with a d...
Pyrethroid-resistance in bed bugs, Cimex lectularius, has been described in many countries, but up to now, for Germany no data are available. However, pest control companies increasingly report difficulties in controlling bed bugs with pyrethroids. In the present study four bed bug strains were coll...
In termites, the mechanisms underlying caste differentiation and related physiological processes have remained elusive. To address this problem, we undertook a genomic research program that uses the common U.S. termite Reticulitermes flavipes Kollar as a model. These studies have allowed us to uncov...
