Mapping of Aedes albopictus abundance at a local scale in Italy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Given the growing risk of arbovirus outbreaks in Europe, there is a clear need to better describe the distribution of invasive mosquito species such as Aedes albopictus. Current challenges consist in simulating Ae. albopictus abundance, rather than its

Preimaginal development of Aedes aegypti L. (Diptera: Culicidae) in brackish water gives rise to adult mosquitoes with thicker cuticles and greater insecticide resistance

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
The principal arboviral vector Aedes aegypti can develop in coastal brackish water field habitats (0.5–15 g/L salt) with larvae possessing thicker cuticles and greater resistance to the larvicide Temephos. Females emerging from brackish water‐developing preimaginal stages are now shown to have thicker and remodelled leg and abdominal cuticles and ...

Nicotiana benthamiana as a Source of Cowpea Mosaic Virus‐Derived Particles That Specifically Package Designer RNAs

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The coupling of replication and encapsidation in the bipartite plant virus, cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV), has been used to specifically incorporate designer RNA molecules into viral particles via transient expression in Nicotiana benthamiana. This is achieved by placing the desired RNA sequence between the 5′ and 3′ UTRs of CPMV RNA‐2 so that ...
