Neoclassical development of genetic sexing strains for insect pest and disease vector control

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 618-639, April 2026.
The sterile insect technique has been effectively used for decades, and an important component is the availability of sex separation systems, in particular genetic sexing strains. Classical approaches, such as irradiation‐induced chromosomal translocations, have yielded stable strains for species like the Mediterranean fruit fly.

The potential of Ireland’s native three-spined stickleback (Gasterostues aculeatus) for the biological control of mosquito larvae (subfamily: Culicinae) in Ballyvergan Marsh, Youghal, Co. Cork [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Marshes provide suitable habitats for larval development of nuisance and vector mosquitoes worldwide. Ecological and ecotoxicological consequences of traditional methods have forced mosquito management to less destructive approaches such as Open Marsh ...

Recently Evolved, Stage‐Specific Genes Are Enriched at Life‐Stage Transitions in Flies

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 344, Issue 7, Page 428-441, November 2025.
We discovered that 20%–30% of protein‐coding genes in Drosophila melanogaster and Aedes aegypti are only expressed during specific stages of development. Surprisingly, many of these stage‐specific genes are newly evolved, unique to flies and mosquitoes, shedding light on how insect development has evolved over time.

Integrating Wind Speed Into Climate‐Based West Nile Virus Models: A Comparative Analysis in Two Distinct Regions

open access: yesGeoHealth, Volume 9, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Since its introduction to North America in 1999, West Nile virus (WNV) has become the most widespread mosquito‐borne disease in the United States. Climatic conditions significantly influence transmission dynamics. While temperature, precipitation, and humidity are known to affect mosquito populations and virus replication, wind speed is often ...

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

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 5, Page 425-434, May 2025.
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.
