Stocking Density Induced Stress on Plasma Cortisol and Whole Blood Glucose Concentration in Nile Tilapia Fish (Oreochromis niloticus) of Lake Victoria, Kenya
(Hindawi, 2020)
Effects of high stocking densities (HSDs) were evaluated for Nile tilapia fish (Oreochromis niloticus) under culture to determine its
influence on plasma cortisol and whole blood glucose concentration. Plasma cortisol ...

commonly practised in Kenya is characterized by the ...
Direct and indirect efects of predation and parasitism on the Anopheles gambiae mosquito
(Parasites & Vectors, 2020)
A good understanding of mosquito ecology is imperative for integrated vector control of malaria. In
breeding sites, Anopheles larvae are concurrently exposed to predators and parasites. However, to our knowledge,
there ...
Grass-Like Plants Release General Volatile Cues Attractive for Gravid Anopheles Gambiae S.S. Malaria Vector Mosquitoes
(Research square, 2021)
Understanding the ecology and behaviour of disease vectors, including the olfactory cues
used to orient and select hosts and egg-laying sites, are essential for the development of novel,
insecticide-free control tools. ...
Salmonella identified in pigs in Kenya and Malawi reveals the potential for zoonotic transmission in emerging pork markets
(2020)
Salmonella is a major cause of foodborne disease globally. Pigs can carry and shed nontyphoidal Salmonella (NTS) asymptomatically, representing a significant reservoir for these
pathogens. To investigate Salmonella carriage ...
