DNA methylase 1 influences temperature responses and development in the invasive pest Tuta absoluta

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 503-515, October 2024.
Dnmt1 regulates the adaptability of tomato leaf miner to temperature. TaDnmt1 RNAi impacts the larval growth and development, resulting in a significant increase (57%) in larval mortality and decrease in pupation (49.3%) and pluming (50.9%). The rapid geographic expansion of Tuta absoluta infestation is closely associated with TaDnmt1‐mediated ...

Immune functions of C‐type lectins in medical arthropods

Insect Science, Volume 31, Issue 3, Page 652-662, June 2024.
C‐type lectins (CTLs) in mosquito vectors facilitate viral infection. Mosquito CTLs (mosGCTLs) bind to the viral envelope (E) proteins of the West Nile virus (WNV) (A), the Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) (B), and the dengue virus (DENV) (c), thus enhancing viral entry into cells via membrane receptors such as mosPTP‐1. Abstract C‐type lectins (CTLs)

Distribution and phylogenetic diversity of Anopheles species in malaria endemic areas of Honduras in an elimination setting

Parasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Anopheles mosquitoes are the vectors of malaria, one of the most important infectious diseases in the tropics. More than 500 Anopheles species have been described worldwide, and more than 30 are considered a public health problem. In Honduras,

Adaptation and evaluation of the bottle assay for monitoring insecticide resistance in disease vector mosquitoes in the Peruvian Amazon

Malaria Journal, 2009
Background The purpose of this study was to establish whether the "bottle assay", a tool for monitoring insecticide resistance in mosquitoes, can complement and augment the capabilities of the established WHO assay, particularly in resource-poor ...

Using green fluorescent malaria parasites to screen for permissive vector mosquitoes

Malaria Journal, 2006
Background The Plasmodium species that infect rodents, particularly Plasmodium berghei and Plasmodium yoelii, are useful to investigate host-parasite interactions. The mosquito species that act as vectors of human plasmodia in South East Asia, Africa and

Genome-wide cataloging and orthology analysis of long noncoding RNA expression in three species of Anopheles mosquito

BMC Genomics
Background Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are versatile regulatory molecules that affect cellular phenotypes through context-specific expression. While their role in controlling cellular pathways is well-established in insects, investigating lncRNA ...
