Dengue, Chikungunya, and Zika: Spatial and Temporal Distribution in Rio de Janeiro State, 2015–2019
Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2022 Simultaneous spatial circulation of urban arboviral diseases, such as dengue, chikungunya, and Zika, is a major challenge. In this ecological study of urban arboviruses performed from 2015 to 2019, we analyzed the spatial and temporal dynamics of these ...

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti, a critical vector for tropical diseases, poses significant challenges for studying its embryogenesis due to difficulties in removing its rigid chorion and achieving effective fixation for in situ hybridization. Here, we present novel methodologies for fixation, dechorionation, DAPI staining, and in situ hybridization, enabling ...

Scientific Reports, 2022 Mosquito saliva facilitates blood feeding through the anti-haemostatic, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties of its proteins. However, the potential contribution of non-coding RNAs to host manipulation is still poorly understood. We analysed

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Animal behaviour in human‐dominated landscapes is difficult to study at large spatial and temporal scales, especially for small species characterised by elusive movements. Citizen science can help overcome these limitations by turning routine human–animal encounters into observations of where and when species are active.

, 2022 Arboviruses are most prevalent in tropical and subtropical regions, where arthropods are widespread. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that the mortality burden of arbovirus diseases, such as yellow fever in Africa, was 84,000–170,000 ...

Evaluating larvicide performance against Culicoides sonorensis in semi‐field conditions
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.This study evaluated the efficacy of larvicide products against Culicoides sonorensis populations under controlled semi‐field conditions. Larvicide efficacy against C. sonorensis declined over time, in different environmental conditions. In particular, precipitation and habitat disturbance influenced residual performance. Abstract BACKGROUND Culicoides

Presence, Location and Conservation of Putative G-Quadruplex Forming Sequences in Arboviruses Infecting Humans [PDF]
, 2023 Guanine quadruplexes (G4s) are non-canonical nucleic acid structures formed by guanine (G)-rich tracts that assemble into a core of stacked planar tetrads.

Automatic insect identification, counting, and monitoring techniques: a review
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Automated insect monitoring increasingly integrates optical, acoustic, infrared, radar, electrostatic, and biosensing technologies with artificial intelligence. No single approach is universally optimal; reliable deployment depends on task‐specific validation, representative datasets, robustness under field conditions, energy autonomy, connectivity ...

Viruses, 2022 In this work, we presented data from a two-year study of flavi-, flavi-like, and phenuiviruses circulation in the population of ixodid ticks in the Chelyabinsk region. We isolated three tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) strains from I.

Insect Science, EarlyView.Overview of the mindset and long‐term goals with the approach suggested in this study. We provide a first proof of concept that male‐killing endosymbionts can be used to establish female biased populations with higher production efficiency than populations with a 50/50 sex ratio. This biological tool can have marked positive impact on future commercial
