Study of Diversity and Distribution of Vector Mosquitoes in and Around Ajanta

Abstract

The study of diversity and distribution of vector mosquitoes in and around the Ajanta region is essential for understanding the public health implications of mosquito-borne diseases. This research investigates the species composition and geographical spread of vector mosquitoes, shedding light on potential disease transmission risks.Field surveys and collection of mosquito specimens were conducted across various ecological niches in the Ajanta area. Molecular techniques were employed to identify the species, including key vector species such as Aedes, Anopheles, and Culex. Additionally, environmental factors influencing mosquito abundance and distribution were analyzed. Variations in breeding sites and environmental conditions contribute to the heterogeneity in mosquito distribution. These insights are crucial for implementing targeted vector control strategies and public health interventions to mitigate the risk of mosquito-borne diseases in the Ajanta region.
