Direct Evidence of Adult Aedes albopictus Dispersal by Car
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 ...

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 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 ...
