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 ...

Vector control for the chikungunya disease: chemical control versus biological control: a mathematical point of view. [PDF]
, 2010 The aim of this talk is to present recent investigations on the Chikungunya Disease that hitted Réunion Island, a French territory in Indian Ocean, in 2005 and 2006. Chikungunya is a vectorborne Disease, usually localized in Asia and East-Africa. In 2005,

An All‐in‐One Metabarcoding Approach to Mosquito and Arbovirus Xenosurveillance
Molecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) has the potential to transform mosquito‐borne disease surveillance but remains under‐utilised. This study introduces a comprehensive multi‐loci metabarcoding‐based MX (molecular xenomonitoring) approach to mosquito and arbovirus surveillance, enabling parallel identification of mosquito vectors, circulating ...

Tomatidine, a natural steroidal alkaloid shows antiviral activity towards chikungunya virus in vitro
Scientific Reports, 2020 In recent decades, chikungunya virus (CHIKV) has re-emerged, leading to outbreaks of chikungunya fever in Africa, Asia and Central and South America. The disease is characterized by a rapid onset febrile illness with (poly)arthralgia, myalgia, rashes ...

Resting behaviour as a target for innovative mosquito control strategies
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract This work reviews and discusses how a deeper knowledge of mosquito time‐allocation, particularly resting periods, can enhance the effectiveness and deployment of classical vector control tools. As more high‐resolution data are gathered by novel tracking devices, follow‐up questions investigating mosquito behaviour are likely to arise ...

Chikungunya Epidemic Mortality in India: Lessons from 17th Century Bills of Mortality Still Relevant [PDF]
Chikungunya is a virus spread by the bite of the Aedes mosquito, which recently reemerged as a massive epidemic in the Indian Ocean islands and India. Chikungunya is generally considered self-limiting and has been reported as non-fatal but, since March ...
