Genetic technologies for disease vectors

Current Opinion in Insect Science, 2015
The first genetic technologies for insect vectors of disease were introduced 20 years ago. As of today there are 12 classes of genetic technologies used as functional genomic tools for insect vectors of important diseases. Although the applications of genetic technologies in insect disease vectors have been conducted primarily in mosquitoes, other ...

Genetic and Physical Map of the pLAFR1 Vector

DNA Sequence, 2004
This paper presents the complete sequencing and annotation of the pLAFR1 vector. pLAFR is a tetracycline-resistant "cosmid" cloning vector, which is derived from the 20 kb plasmid pRK290, a RK2-derivative. Due to its broad host range, the pLAFR1 vector has been widely used in the genetic analysis of a broad number of gram-negative bacterial species ...

Genetics of a Molluscan Vector of Schistosomiasis

Nature, 1970
A complex of several genetic factors determines the susceptibility of juvenile Biomphalaria glabratus to infection by Schistosoma mansoni. A simple dominant factor can cause juvenile susceptible snails to become refractory to the parasite at maturity. Stocks of such adults may prove to be of use in genetic control of S. mansoni in endemic areas.

Molecular Genetic Manipulation of Mosquito Vectors

Annual Review of Entomology, 1995
Despite their central role in disease transmission, relatively little is known of the molecular biology of arthropod vectors. Modern molecular approaches will undoubtedly provide considerable information about gene regulation and expression in vectors and consequently a much better understanding of the biology and molecular biology of vectors.

Poxviruses as Genetic Vectors

1995
Since the pioneering studies of Edward Jenner on using live virus vaccines during the early 1800s (Baxby 1981), a considerable amount of information has been obtained on the biology and replication of poxviruses. Vaccinia virus, the agent used to vaccinate humans against smallpox and eradicate this disease, has been widely studied in the laboratory due

Adenoassociated virus vectors for genetic immunization

Immunologic Research, 2002
Genetic immunization has initiated a new era of vaccine research, which provides a stable and long-lived source of the protein antigen. Such a vaccine is a simple, robust, and effective means of eliciting both antibody- and cell-mediated immune responses compared with protein or peptide vaccines.

FPGA implementation of genetic vector quantizers

Neurocomputing, 2010
This paper presents a novel hardware architecture for genetic vector quantizer (VQ) design. It is based on steady-state genetic algorithm (GA) and adopts shift registers for accelerating mutation and crossover operations while reducing area cost. It also uses a pipeline for fitness evaluation.
