Direct Evidence of Adult Aedes albopictus Dispersal by Car

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Whereas the Asian tiger mosquito (Aedes albopictus) has low active dispersal capabilities, its worldwide colonization has been rapid. Indirect evidence and informal reports have long implicated passive transportation in cars, but this has not previously ...

ZIKV Phylogenetic Characterization Reveals Evolutionary Diversity, Regional Dissemination, and Emergence of African Lineages in Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Basic Microbiology, Volume 66, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT During the last epidemic in 2015–2016, Zika virus (ZIKV) gaining worldwide attention due to its association with neurological complications such as microcephaly and Guillain‐Barré syndrome. ZIKV can be transmitted through vector‐borne, sexual, maternal‐fetal, and blood transfusion transmission.

Development of an eco‐friendly RNAi yeast attractive targeted sugar bait that silences the shaker gene in spotted‐wing drosophila, Drosophila suzukii

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 1, Page 732-741, January 2026.
This study discusses a promising new attractive targeted sugar bait (ATSB) technology using yeast that expresses shRNA targeting essential genes in the fruit pest spotted‐wing drosophila (SWD). The yeast, which is delivered using soda as a sugar bait, could one day be an effective component in integrated SWD control programs.

Dengue Fever and Its Burden in Burkina Faso: An Overview

open access: yesReviews in Medical Virology, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Dengue fever is an arbovirus disease caused by the dengue virus and has been diagnosed in Burkina Faso for many years. In recent decades, the disease has become a growing concern, thereby impacting the public health system. Several factors contribute to the pathogenesis of dengue fever, including the immune system and the virulence of ...

Quantification of permethrin resistance and kdr alleles in Florida strains of Aedes aegypti (L.) and Aedes albopictus (Skuse)

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2018
Recent outbreaks of locally transmitted dengue and Zika viruses in Florida have placed more emphasis on the importance of integrated vector management plans for Aedes aegypti (L.) and Aedes albopictus Skuse.

Assessing the success of a horizon scanning approach in predicting invasive non‐native species arrival

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
We conclude that horizon scanning provides a rapid, affordable and successful mechanism to predict the arrival of high‐risk INNS. We highlight the importance of citizen science, including biological recording, and of local expertise for detecting and documenting arrival of INNS.

The UK’s suitability for Aedes albopictus in current and future climates

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Society Interface, 2019
The Asian tiger mosquito Aedes albopictus is able to transmit various pathogens to humans and animals and it has already caused minor outbreaks of dengue and chikungunya in southern Europe.

Density Dependence During Evolutionary Rescue Increases Extinction Risk but Does Not Prevent Adaptation

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study investigates how density dependence influences evolutionary rescue in populations facing environmental stress. We found that while density dependence increases extinction risk by limiting population growth, it does not prevent adaptation in surviving populations.

Profiling an Enhanced IL‐6 Expression Distinguishes Host Susceptibility to Primary and Secondary Infections of the Dengue Virus in an Ex Vivo Whole‐Blood Coculture Model

open access: yesJournal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Dengue virus (DENV) infection can potentially lead to severe dengue disease due to the risk of antibody‐dependent enhancement. This study reports a comparative analysis of the host cytokine/chemokine response triggered by primary and secondary DENV infections using an artificial ex vivo whole‐blood coculture model to simulate viremia during the acute ...
