Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Conducted a year‐long Malaise trap monitoring study across Germany, revealing 14,445 OTUs, including 8,589 assigned species, highlighting extensive small‐scale and largely undescribed diversity. Identified 17 invasive species, five of which are new records for Germany, underscoring the need for continuous monitoring to manage invasive species ...

The invasive dynamics of Aedes aegypti mosquito in a heterogenous environment [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 A reaction-diffusion-advection model is proposed and investigated to understand the invasive dynamics of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. The free boundary is introduced to model the expanding front of the invasive mosquitoes in a heterogenous environment. The threshold $R^D_0$ for the model with Dirichlet boundary condition is defined and the threshold $R ...

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.We compiled primary occurrence data for Culicidae in Brazil and our findings showed limitations in the spatial and temporal coverage of digital Culicidae data compared with the literature occurrence data. The Atlantic and Amazon Forests presented well‐surveyed inventories in Brazil's north and southeast. However, the distribution of occurrences reveals

Climate-disease connections: Rift Valley Fever in Kenya
Cadernos de Saúde PúblicaAll known Rift Valley fever(RVF) outbreaks in Kenya from 1950 to 1998 followed periods of abnormally high rainfall. On an interannual scale, periods of above normal rainfall in East Africa are associated with the warm phase of the El Niño/Southern ...

The quest for the best target genes for RNAi‐mediated pest control
Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.A major challenge for RNAi mediated pest control is the identification of the most effective RNAi target genes from the pool of ~37% of all genes that are essential. Effective RNAi target genes are predominantly highly conserved genes serving basic cellular functions such as protein degradation.

The loss of the urea cycle and ornithine metabolism in different insect orders: An omics approach
Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.Among urea cycle enzymes, only the nitric oxide synthase gene is universally present across insect genomes. All Hemiptera species lack the enzymes needed to convert citrulline to arginine, and some also lack the pathway from arginine to ornithine. Putrescine and spermidine synthesis is conserved in all insects, but aphids lack the capability to produce
