Abstract West Nile virus (WNV) primarily infects birds and mosquitoes but has also caused over 2,000 human deaths, and >50,000 reported human cases in the United States. Expected numbers of WNV neuroinvasive cases for the present were described for the Northeastern United States, using a negative binomial model. Changes in temperature‐based suitability

In tune with nature: Wolbachia does not prevent pre-copula acoustic communication in Aedes aegypti
Background Mosquito-borne diseases are rapidly spreading to vast territories, putting at risk most of the world’s population. A key player in this scenario is Aedes aegypti, a hematophagous species which hosts and transmits viruses causing dengue and ...

The risks of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus nuisance and vector‐borne diseases are rising and their ranges are expanding. The studies identified by this extensive review come together to suggest little potential risk of adverse impact of suppressing or eliminating invasive Aedes spp. on their predators and food webs.

Host blood meal identity modifies vector gene expression and competency
Abstract A vector's susceptibility and ability to transmit a pathogen—termed vector competency—determines disease outcomes, yet the ecological factors influencing tick vector competency remain largely unknown. Ixodes pacificus, the tick vector of Borrelia burgdorferi (Bb) in the western U.S., feeds on rodents, birds, and lizards.

Embalses Costeros Para el Control de los Mosquitos
Los embalses costeros utilizados en Florida para el control de los mosquitos son marismas o manglares con un dique periférico que permite inundar el área durante la temporada de cría de mosquitos. Desde entonces, investigaciones científicas han demostrado que el embalsamiento puede causar serios impactos ambientales en las marismas, manglares y esteros

Dinâmica Populacional do Vetor Transmissor da Dengue
Estuda-se a dinâmica da população de mosquitos transmissor da dengue através de modelo matemático autônomo. Dependendo da hipótese admitida para a capacidade de oviposição, mostra-se a existência ou não de condições para a eliminação dos mosquitos por ...

High larvicidal efficacy of yeast-encapsulated orange oil against Aedes aegypti strains from Brazil
Background Botanical substances such as essential oils (EOs) have demonstrated insecticidal properties and are a valid option for vector control. However, free EOs are unreliable as mosquito larvicides due their easy degradation by environmental exposure

The presence of mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) in flood containment reservoirs in the eastern region of the City of São Paulo, Brazil [PDF]
INTRODUÇÃO: Alterações no ambiente vêm contribuindo com mudanças climáticas, como o aumento do volume de chuvas, que acarreta as inundações. Medidas estão sendo tomadas no enfrentamento das inundações, como a implantação dos reservatórios de contenção de

Socio‐ecological drivers of multiple zoonotic hazards in highly urbanized cities
Effectively identifying and managing zoonotic hazards requires understanding the socio‐ecological processes driving hazard distribution and pathogen prevalence in dynamic and heterogeneous urban landscapes. Here we discuss how landscape patterns, abiotic conditions, and biotic interactions influence zoonotic hazards across highly urbanized cities (HUCs)
