Size and sex in early developmental stages in a frog‐biting mosquito

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Our knowledge of the morphological scaling of body parts over development across sexes in mosquitoes mainly focuses on well‐studied anthropophilic species, leaving a noticeable gap in our understanding of the developmental biology of mosquitoes with limited medical consequences.

Larvicidal Effectiveness of Azolla pinnata against Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) with Its Effects on Larval Morphology and Visualization of Behavioural Response

Journal of Parasitology Research, 2018
Dengue is vector-borne diseases with 390 million infections per year extending over 120 countries of the world. Aedes aegypti (L.) (Diptera: Culicidae) is a primary vector for dengue viral infections for humans.

Understanding the genetics of sex determination in insects and its relevance to genetic pest management

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
In insect sex determination pathways, the primary signals may vary within and between insect orders; however, the relay and terminal genes are more conserved. The upstream components of insect sex determination pathways ensure the downstream components are sex‐specifically spliced to regulate the development of male and female‐specific traits in a sex ...

Larvicidal Effect of Hyptis suaveolens (L.) Poit. Essential Oil Nanoemulsion on Culex quinquefasciatus (Diptera: Culicidae)

Molecules, 2022
Mosquitoes can be vectors of pathogens and transmit diseases to both animals and humans. Species of the genus Culex are part of the cycle of neglected diseases, especially Culex quinquefasciatus, which is an anthropophilic vector of lymphatic filariasis.

From Stream to Bloom: Exploring the Potential Role of Aquatic Insects for Pollination in Wetland Environments

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The substantial loss of insects we are experiencing today has been highlighted all over the world. There is a growing concern about the global decline of pollinators and its impact on terrestrial and agricultural ecosystems, but the focus of scientists towards bees remains the rule.
