Evidence for multiple-insecticide resistance in urban Aedes albopictus populations in southern China

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Aedes albopictus (Skuse) is an invasive mosquito that has become an important vector of chikungunya, dengue and Zika viruses. In the absence of specific antiviral therapy or a vaccine, vector management is the sole method available for reducing Aedes ...

Distribution of dengue vectors, Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus, in a few selected semi-urban areas of the Central Province of Sri Lanka

Sri Lankan Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2018
Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus are the two major vectors transmitting dengue viruses. The current study was undertaken from October to November 2014 to identify the distribution of dengue vectors in the Akurana Medical Officer of Health (MOH ...

Rapid local adaptation to northern winters in the invasive Asian tiger mosquito Aedes albopictus : A moving target

Journal of Applied Ecology, 2019
Rapid adaptation in response to novel environments can facilitate species invasions and range expansions. Understanding how invasive disease vectors rapidly evolve to novel conditions—particularly at the edge of its non‐native range—has important ...

Prior Hydrologic Disturbance Affects Competition between Aedes Mosquitoes via Changes in Leaf Litter.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Allochthonous leaf litter is often the main resource base for invertebrate communities in ephemeral water-filled containers, and detritus quality can be affected by hydrologic conditions. The invasive mosquito Aedes albopictus utilizes container habitats

Detection of a sympatric cryptic species mimicking Aedes albopictus (Diptera: Culicidae) in dengue and Chikungunya endemic forest villages of Tripura, India, posing a daunting challenge for vector research

Scientific Reports
The Aedes (Stegomyia) albopictus (Skuse, 1895) (Diptera: Culicidae) is one of the major vectors for Dengue and Chikungunya. However, our study uncovered another mosquito species morphologically similar to Ae. albopictus but is genetically different.

The major and minor Aedes mosquitoes from southern Nigeria exhibit low resistance towards public health insecticides

GigaByte
Insecticide-based interventions continue to serve as the cornerstone of Aedes mosquito control, the primary vectors of arboviruses. This study assessed the insecticide resistance profiles of four Aedes mosquitoes in three rural areas in southern Nigeria,
