A synthetic biology approach for a vaccine platform against known and newly emerging serotypes of bluetongue virus [PDF]
, 2014 Bluetongue is one of the major infectious diseases of ruminants and is caused by Bluetongue virus (BTV), an arbovirus existing in nature in at least 26 distinct serotypes. Here, we describe the development of a vaccine platform for BTV.

Revista MVZ Córdoba, 2000 Hay muchos virus que pueden ser transmitidos de los animales al hombre por vectores artrópodos. De estos 400 o más virus, apenas 100 se sabe que causan enfermedad en el hombre y de ellos unos 40 causan sindromes clínicos graves, como Fiebre Amarilla, Dengue y Encefalitis Equinas.

What are the vector species of the Oropouche virus?
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Here, we review the timeline of Oropouche virus (OROV) detection in various hematophagous Diptera, from 1955 to date, including mosquitoes and midges. All vector competence experiments also are described. The results suggest that Culicoides are the primary vectors.

First record of Aedes aegypti (L.) (Diptera: Culicidae) infected by the parasite Ascogregarina culicis (Ross) (Apicomplexa: Lecudinidae) in Argentina [PDF]
, 2005 n a survey for parasites and pathogens of Aedes aegypti conducted in La Plata, Argentina, an aseptate gregarine was found parasitizing larvae, pupae and adults of this mosquito species. This gregarine species was identified as Ascogregarina culicis based

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.As West Africa urbanises, the risk of Lassa fever may paradoxically decrease. We found the invasive house mouse, a dominant urban species, outcompetes and displaces the primary Lassa virus host. Considering these species interactions is critical for accurately predicting future zoonotic disease patterns.

Digital evolution in time-dependent fitness landscapes [PDF]
, 2004 We study the response of populations of digital organisms that adapt to a time-varying (periodic) fitness landscape of two oscillating peaks. We corroborate in general predictions from quasi-species theory in dynamic landscapes, such as adaptation to the

Maltase 1 regulates DENV2 infection and life history in Aedes aegypti
Insect Science, EarlyView.Our study employed CRISPR/Cas9 to generate a MAL1 knockout strain of Aedes aegypti, demonstrating that the absence of MAL1 significantly suppresses DENV2 replication in the midgut and impairs viral transmission. The mutation also altered life‐history (hatching/pupation/emerging rates and sex‐specific survival), identifying MAL1 as a novel target for ...
