Morin hydrate reduces survival and fertility, delays development and weakens lipid reserves in Aedes aegypti

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Morin hydrate promoted mortality and reduced the rate of pupation and egg laying in Aedes aegypti larvae that survive treatment. Morin hydrate reduces the levels of triacylglycerol, the main lipid reserve in A. aegypti larvae. The expression of proteins involved in lipogenesis and lipolysis was downregulated and upregulated, respectively, in larvae ...

The effect of size on mate selection, fecundity and survival in Culex pipiens mosquitoes

Physiological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 204-215, June 2025.
Larval diet affects male and female adult size, female fecundity and female survival. Large non‐blood–fed females lived longer than small non‐blood–fed females. Mate size did not influence mating rate (insemination status). Even though larger females are more fit, males mated equally to large and small females when given the option. Blood feeding has a

Abundance of conserved CRISPR-Cas9 target sites within the highly polymorphic genomes of Anopheles and Aedes mosquitoes. [PDF]

, 2020
A number of recent papers report that standing genetic variation in natural populations includes ubiquitous polymorphisms within target sites for Cas9-based gene drive (CGD) and that these "drive resistant alleles" (DRA) preclude the successful ...

Current Distribution of Selected Vector‐borne Diseases in Domestic Dogs From Bucharest, Romania

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2025.
Serological testing of 317 dogs in Bucharest (2020‐2024) revealed an overall Canine vector‐borne diseases (CVBD) seroprevalence of 8.8%, with Dirofilaria immitis (12.62%) being the most common. Shelter and older dogs had higher infection rates. Climate change and vector expansion may influence pathogen spread, underscoring the need for enhanced ...

An Insect Salivary Sheath Protein Triggers Plant Resistance to Insects and Pathogens as a Conserved HAMP

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 21, June 5, 2025.
The salivary sheath protein myosin from SBPH is critical for the formation of the salivary sheath and feeding. However, myosin functions as a HAMP and triggered plant BAK1‐mediated PTI responses, which include the activation of calcium signaling pathways, MAPK phosphorylation, ROS bursts, and cell death, thereby triggering JA pathway.

Mathematical Analysis of the Transmission Dynamics of Malaria and Tuberculosis Co‐Infection With Control Strategies

Engineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Co‐infections such as malaria and tuberculosis pose significant public health challenges, particularly in regions where both diseases are endemic. Despite the global burden of these infections, their combined transmission dynamics remain poorly understood, highlighting the importance of this study. We develop a comprehensive mathematical model
