WASTE PICKER’S BEHAVIOUR ON DHF AND IT’S CORRELATION WITH THE PRESENCE OF AEDES AEGYPTI LARVA

open access: yesJurnal Ners, 2017
Introduction: Dengue Haemorhagic Fever is an endemic disease caused by dengue virus with Aedes aegypti as the vector. Most of waste pickers in waste goods pool refuse fogging, 3M programme and abatization, so that DHF outbreak occurs in that area every ...

Exploring the potential of using male‐killing endosymbionts to induce female‐biased insect populations for enhanced biomass production

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Overview of the mindset and long‐term goals with the approach suggested in this study. We provide a first proof of concept that male‐killing endosymbionts can be used to establish female biased populations with higher production efficiency than populations with a 50/50 sex ratio. This biological tool can have marked positive impact on future commercial

Contribution to the genetics of the mosquito aedes aegypti [PDF]

open access: yes
The literature relevant to mosquito genetics is first reviewed. In the present work, 51 different strains of Aedes aegypti have been examined for colour variation in particular. Methods of rearing, handling and routine are briefly described. Colour

Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) signaling regulates fluid excretion and uric acid metabolism in the mosquito Anopheles gambiae

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) signaling via its receptor has integral roles in mosquito physiology, mediating fluid excretion, stimulating hindgut contractions, and in modulating uric acid levels. Together, these results uncover previously unrecognized roles of prostaglandin signaling in osmotic balance and metabolic homeostasis in mosquitoes.

Aedes aegypti

open access: yes
Phylum Arthropoda:Aedes aegyptiSEMThe elongate eggs of A. aegypti measured ca 600 µm long (̄x = 596.9 ± 17.1 μm). The posterior and anterior ends tapered into a spindle shape and the centre measured 165 µm in diameter (Figure 4a). The textured surface was covered with outer chorionic cells (sensu Mundim-Pombo et al. 2021).

Conserved dimerization architecture in C‐type lectins from virus‐vector mosquitoes

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
C‐type lectins (CTLs) are involved in the detection of viral/microbial carbohydrates. We studied a family of soluble CTLs in the mosquito Aedes aegypti, which acts as a vector for viruses like dengue and Zika. Using crystallography, biophysics, and structure prediction approaches, we found that these proteins consistently pair together in the same ...

RNA activation in insects: From emerging evidence to molecular applications

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Canonical RNA activation involves small RNAs interacting with promoter sequences, but there is also evidence of non‐canonical RNAa in eukaryotes. Emerging evidence suggests the presence of RNAa in insects. RNAa can be utilised as a tool for functional genomic studies in insects.

Handbook of general information on Aedes aegypti eradication [PDF]

open access: yes
"Eradication of the yellow fever mosquito Aedes aegypti from the United States, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands was begun in 1964 as a cooperative program of the state and local health departments and Communicable Disease Center of the U.S.

TcFur1, a furin 1 ortholog in Tribolium castaneum, regulates reproduction and carbohydrate metabolism without affecting lipid homeostasis

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
TcFur1, a furin 1 ortholog in Tribolium castaneum, is highly expressed in pupae and declines in adults. TcFur1 knockdown reduces oviposition but does not alter triacylglycerol levels or total lipase activity. TcFur1 knockdown increases circulating trehalose and decreases expression of insulin‐like peptides and the AKH receptor.
