Past and future spread of the arbovirus vectors Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus
Nature Microbiology, 2019 The global population at risk from mosquito-borne diseases—including dengue, yellow fever, chikungunya and Zika—is expanding in concert with changes in the distribution of two key vectors: Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus.

Improved reference genome of the arboviral vector Aedes albopictus [PDF]
Genome Biology, 2020 Background: The Asian tiger mosquito Aedes albopictus is globally expanding and has become the main vector for human arboviruses in Europe. With limited antiviral drugs and vaccines available, vector control is the primary approach to prevent mosquito ...

Differential Susceptibilities of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus from the Americas to Zika Virus
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2016 Background Since the major outbreak in 2007 in the Yap Island, Zika virus (ZIKV) causing dengue-like syndromes has affected multiple islands of the South Pacific region.

Integrated Aedes management for the control of Aedes-borne diseases
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018 Background Diseases caused by Aedes-borne viruses, such as dengue, Zika, chikungunya, and yellow fever, are emerging and reemerging globally. The causes are multifactorial and include global trade, international travel, urbanisation, water storage ...

Aedes Mosquitoes and Aedes-Borne Arboviruses in Africa: Current and Future Threats
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2018 The Zika crisis drew attention to the long-overlooked problem of arboviruses transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes in Africa. Yellow fever, dengue, chikungunya and Zika are poorly controlled in Africa and often go unrecognized.

Large-Scale Modelling of the Environmentally-Driven Population Dynamics of Temperate Aedes albopictus (Skuse) [PDF]
, 2016 The Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus, is a highly invasive vector species. It is a proven vector of dengue and chikungunya viruses, with the potential to host a further 24 arboviruses.
