Resistência a inseticidas em populações de Simulium (Diptera, Simuliidae)

Abstract: This article presents the findings of a population-based cross-sectional survey carried out during a mass immunization campaign. A group of 3,305 mothers whose babies were 0 to 180 days old was selected by systematic sampling and interviewed with a pretested questionnaire. The prevalence of exclusive breast-feeding among 0-15 day-old children was 62% (IC 95%: 58.5-65.3) and 12.8% (11.0-14.7), among 151-180 day-old children. The average duration of exclusive breast-feeding was 39.4 days. The prevalence of predo… Show more

“…Probably, the low level of resistance to AzMe observed in the present study is a result of prevailing insecticide activation by MFOs over detoxification mechanisms. Nevertheless, cases of resistance to OP in black fly populations already have been reported in Brazil [27,28] and Africa [29]. According to a review of cases of resistance in arthropods, the largest group of cases (35.1%) from a total of 504 species resistant to insecticides recorded by the end of 1989 belonged to the order Diptera [30].…”

“…The results obtained demonstrate the insecticidal properties of EOs from the species L. lasiocalycina, L. insignis and L. thymoides in the biocontrol of N. corniger. Despite their inferior insecticidal activity when compared to the commercial agrochemical, essential oils are less harmful to the environment and do not promote the development of resistance in insects (Campos & Andrade, 2002).…”

“…Dessa forma, alterações no ambiente podem contribuir para o aumento da população desses organismos, pois os simulídeos apresentam uma capacidade de responder a modificações ambientais de forma notável, uma vez que são organismos sensíveis a alterações de caráter biótico ou abiótico em seu habitat (CAMPOS et al, 2002). Uma explosão populacional de simulídeos em um determinado local pode se tornar um problema preocupante, uma vez que esses organismos são vetores de doenças e organismos Esse trabalho teve como objetivo trazer aspectos gerais sobre a biologia e importância de estudos com simulídeos, além de demonstrar os diferentes campos em que esses organismos podem ser estudados, já que estudos com esses animais apresentam aplicabilidade em diferentes áreas da Biologia, Medicina ou Veterinária.…”
