Understanding the Wolbachia-mediated inhibition of arboviruses in mosquitoes: progress and challenges [PDF]

, 2014
Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) pose a considerable threat to human and animal health, yet effective control measures have proven difficult to implement, and novel means of controlling their replication in arthropod vectors, such as mosquitoes, are

Shrubs and trees as natural insect protection for grazing animals in Switzerland and the alpine region: A systematic review of in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials Sträucher und Bäume als natürlicher Insektenschutz für Weidetiere in der Schweiz und im Alpenraum: Eine systematische Literaturübersicht über in vitro‐, in vivo‐ und klinische Studien

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Biting or irritating insects are a threat to the health and welfare of grazing animals. This systematic review reveals that several shrubs and bushes growing in the alpine area have insecticidal, insect‐repellent and/or attractant properties. The alder Alnus glutinosa, juniper Juniperus communis, spruce Picea abies and walnut Juglans regia are ...

DNA barcoding and geometric morphometry of tabanid flies (Diptera: Tabanidae) in Thailand and a new record of a Thai horse fly

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Tabanus tenens identified in this study is a newly recorded species in Thailand. DNA barcoding using the cox1 gene identified tabanid species in the present study. WGM data from different sites served as a reference for species identification. Abstract Tabanid flies are gaining high medical and veterinary importance due to their role as a vector of ...

Molecular bases of insect odorant receptor function: specificity and evolution

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 1036-1049, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Insect odorant receptors (ORs) are a class of chemoreceptors that insects use to detect volatile cues in their environment. In recent years, major advances in the field of structural biology have made it possible to obtain the first structures of insect ORs.

What are the vector species of the Oropouche virus?

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 2785-2793, April 2026.
Here, we review the timeline of Oropouche virus (OROV) detection in various hematophagous Diptera, from 1955 to date, including mosquitoes and midges. All vector competence experiments also are described. The results suggest that Culicoides are the primary vectors.

Infecção experimental do Culex quinquefasciatus pelo Plasmodium juxtanucleare

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1944
Foram feitas duas séries de experiências para verificar a possibilidade da infecção de mosquitos com o P. juxtanucleare. Na primeira foram utilizados 158 exemplares de Aedes aegypti e 152 de Culex quinquefasciatus, com resultados negativos.
