Modelling the Dynamics of an Aedes albopictus Population [PDF]
We present a methodology for modelling population dynamics with formal means of computer science. This allows unambiguous description of systems and application of analysis tools such as simulators and model checkers.

Population Structure of the Invasive Asian Tiger Mosquito, <i>Aedes albopictus</i>, in Europe. [PDF]
The Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus, is currently the most widespread invasive mosquito species in the world and poses a significant threat to human health. We genotyped 748 Ae. albopictus mosquitoes from locations across Europe and Asia (the native range) to examine population genetic structure and found evidence for multiple independent ...

Insect‐specific viruses used in biocontrol of mosquito‐borne diseases
Insect‐specific RNA viruses (ISRVs) are involved in a wide range of families including Flaviviridae, Bunyaviridae, Negeviruses, Togaviridae, Reoviridae, Mesoniviridae, and Rhabdoviridae, which cannot infect vertebrates, including humans. However, ISRVs can infect and replicate in mosquitoes, interfering with the replication of mosquito‐borne viruses ...
