Genomic Insights Into Host Shifts Between Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium simium in Latin America

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Malaria in Latin America is largely caused by Plasmodium vivax, but the closely related monkey parasite Plasmodium simium has recently been observed in humans, thus raising new public health concerns. By screening 719 monkey samples from five Latin America countries, we identified 23 Plasmodium‐positives.

Resting behaviour as a target for innovative mosquito control strategies

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, Page 1890-1905, September 2025.
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 ...

Abundance, Diversity and Phenology of Mosquito Larvae in a Highly Anthropized Wetland: Health and Management Implications of Gándaras de Budiño (NW Spain)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
The natural and anthropized wetland of Gándaras de Budiño (Galicia, Spain) hosts a great number of mosquito species. Culex pipiens s.l. and Culex torrentium pose an emerging risk for West Nile virus transmission. The temporary and polluted waters, as well as the summer and spring seasons, favor the larval proliferation of these vectors.

Population Structure of the Invasive Asian Tiger Mosquito, Aedes albopictus, in Europe

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2025.
The Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus, is currently the most widespread invasive mosquito species in the world and poses a significant threat to human health. We genotyped 748 Ae. albopictus mosquitoes from locations across Europe and Asia (the native range) to examine population genetic structure and found evidence for multiple independent ...

Combating infections under siege: Healthcare challenges amidst the military assault in Gaza

World Medical &Health Policy, Volume 17, Issue 1, Page 188-213, March 2025.
Abstract The ongoing Israeli military assault on Gaza has caused a devastating collapse of healthcare infrastructure, resulting in an unprecedented surge in infectious diseases. The destruction of sanitation systems, restrictions on medical supplies, and displacement of civilians have created an environment conducive to the rapid spread of waterborne ...
