Abstract

Mosquitoes are a major cause of lethal vector-borne diseases like dengue, malaria, filariasis, chikungunya, and Japanese encephalitis, among other diseases. In a developing country like India, mosquito-borne diseases are significant threats to familiar people as in certain places, there remains low sanitation. Larval and pupal life stages of mosquitoes are mostly confined to tropical and temperate waterbodies and often form a significant proportion of biomass waterbodies. Due to rebound vectorial capacity, resistance to chemical insecticides, and harmful environmental effects, the vector control program has shifted to using biological control agents. These methods are target-specific, eco-friendly, cost-effective, and can be easily deployed. So, the present review is focused on collating and updating the information on the use of aquatic predators, bacterial strains such as Bacillus sp. and actinobacterial, algae, and fungi, which are widely used for control of adult mosquitoes in their variety of natural habitats. This review also covers the predation of larvivorous fish and botanical insecticides.

蚊媒生物防制药剂研究进展
蚊子是登革热、疟疾、丝虫病、基孔肯雅病和日本脑炎等致命媒介传播疾病的主要原因。在印度这样的发展中国家,蚊子传播的疾病对熟悉的人来说是重大威胁,因为在某些地方,卫生条件仍然很差。蚊子的幼虫和蛹生活阶段大多局限于热带和温带水体,通常在生物量水体中占很大比例。由于媒介的反弹能力、对化学杀虫剂的抵抗力和有害的环境影响,媒介控制计划已转向使用生物控制剂。这些方法针对特定目标,环保,成本效益高,并且可以轻松部署。因此,本综述的重点是整理和更新有关水生捕食者、细菌菌株(如芽孢杆菌)的使用信息。以及放线菌、藻类和真菌,它们在各种自然栖息地被广泛用于控制成年蚊子。这篇综述还涵盖了对食草动物鱼类和植物杀虫剂的捕食。
