Past and future spread of the arbovirus vectors Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus
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.

Enhanced Zika virus susceptibility of globally invasive Aedes aegypti populations
Domesticating Zika virus Why hasn't Zika virus (ZIKV) disease caused as much devastation in Africa, its continent of origin, as it has in the Americas? Outside of Africa, this flavivirus is transmitted by a ubiquitous mosquito subspecies, Aedes aegypti ...

Persistent susceptibility of Aedes aegypti to eugenol [PDF]
AbstractBotanical insecticides are preferred for their environment and user-friendly nature. Eugenol is a plant-based monoterpene having multifarious biocidal activities. To understand whether eugenol would persistently work against Aedes aegypti, we performed larvicidal bioassays on thirty successive generations and determined median lethal ...

Bacteria as Ovipositional Attractants for \u3ci\u3eAedes Aegypti\u3c/i\u3e (Diptera: Culicidae) [PDF]
The effectiveness of selected bacterial species as ovipositional attractants for Aedes aegypti was compared. Bacterial washes, in glass containers, were utilized as ovipositional substrates and subsequent egg counts determined the degree of ovipositional

Estimating the impact of city-wide Aedes aegypti population control: An observational study in Iquitos, Peru. [PDF]
During the last 50 years, the geographic range of the mosquito Aedes aegypti has increased dramatically, in parallel with a sharp increase in the disease burden from the viruses it transmits, including Zika, chikungunya, and dengue.

The ultrastructure of the Aedes aegypti heart [PDF]
Comparative structural analyses of the heart and associated tissues in 4th instar larvae (L4), pupae and adults of Aedes aegypti were undertaken using a combination of microscopy techniques. The Ae. aegypti heart consists of cardiomyocytes arranged in a helical fashion, and it is physically associated with intersegmental groups of pericardial cells ...
