Virtual dissection of Aedes aegypti mosquito using phase‐contrast synchrotron microtomography

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract In this paper, in‐line phase‐contrast synchrotron microtomography was used to study the morphology of adult Aedes aegypti. These specimens are vectors of several arboviruses, causing dengue, chikungunya, Zika and yellow fever. The morphological details of this insect species are still incomplete and insufficient.

Preimaginal development of Aedes aegypti L. (Diptera: Culicidae) in brackish water gives rise to adult mosquitoes with thicker cuticles and greater insecticide resistance

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
The principal arboviral vector Aedes aegypti can develop in coastal brackish water field habitats (0.5–15 g/L salt) with larvae possessing thicker cuticles and greater resistance to the larvicide Temephos. Females emerging from brackish water‐developing preimaginal stages are now shown to have thicker and remodelled leg and abdominal cuticles and ...

Host‐feeding preferences of Culex pipiens and its potential significance for flavivirus transmission in the Camargue, France

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
We identified Culex pipiens bloodmeals at the species level in natural, agricultural and peri‐urban habitats and calculated host preferences based on forage ratios. This analysis showed Passeriformes, and in particular Columba livia, Passer montanus and Turdus sp., to be the preferred Cx. pipiens hosts.

Morin hydrate reduces survival and fertility, delays development and weakens lipid reserves in Aedes aegypti

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Morin hydrate promoted mortality and reduced the rate of pupation and egg laying in Aedes aegypti larvae that survive treatment. Morin hydrate reduces the levels of triacylglycerol, the main lipid reserve in A. aegypti larvae. The expression of proteins involved in lipogenesis and lipolysis was downregulated and upregulated, respectively, in larvae ...

Extended time to maturity in Anopheles coluzzii: Implications of late egg hatch for vector control and transgene fitness

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
The fitness of Anopheles coluzzii mosquito lines (VK strain) selected for early and late egg hatching was compared with each other and a reference strain (Mopti). There was an observed increase in fitness in fecundity and survival among the late‐hatching lines, but no negative effects of selection on fecundity and adult survival were detected.

Modelling vector and host distributions to inform potential disease risk: A case study of West Nile virus in the United Kingdom

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Correlative modelling approaches can be used successfully to predict the distribution of vectors and hosts involved in vector‐borne diseases of concern. For West Nile virus in the United Kingdom, host distributions are unlikely to be a significant factor influencing change. Vector distributions and urbanisation will drive increasing risk. Projecting to
