Molecular Genetic Manipulation of Mosquito Vectors
Annual Review of Entomology, 1995Despite 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.

Genetics of a Molluscan Vector of Schistosomiasis
Nature, 1970A 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.

Vectors for reverse genetics and expression analysis [PDF]
, 2006 The binary Agrobacterium pPZP211 vector is stable and fully sequenced. We have produced derivatives of this vector that can be used for general over-expression, nodule-specific expression, expression pattern analysis, and protein localization studies.

Genetic manipulation of insect vectors as a strategy for the control of vector-borne disease
Annals of Tropical Medicine & Parasitology, 1994A variety of very effective methods have been employed for suppressing insect vector populations, including the application of biological control agents and the elimination of breeding sites, with a continuing and heavy reliance on the use of chemical insecticides.

Adenoassociated virus vectors for genetic immunization
Immunologic Research, 2002Genetic 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.

Herpesviruses as Genetic Vectors
1995The members of the Herpesviridae family are large, DNA-containing, enveloped viruses. Nearly 100 herpesviruses infect a broad spectrum of the animal kingdom (Roizman 1990). So far, seven different types of human herpesviruses have been described (Table 5.1).

HSV-1 Amplicon Vectors as Genetic Vaccines
2014HSV-1 amplicon vectors have been used as platforms for the generation of genetic vaccines against both DNA and RNA viruses. Mice vaccinated with such vectors encoding structural proteins from both foot-and-mouth disease virus and rotavirus were partially protected from challenge with wild-type virus (D'Antuono et al.

A genetic algorithm design for vector quantization
1st International Conference on Genetic Algorithms in Engineering Systems: Innovations and Applications (GALESIA), 1995A new genetic learning algorithm is described in this paper to perform vector quantization for image compression. The algorithm is initialized by generating several random code-books to create a gene pool. A genetic algorithm is then developed and activated to improve on the performance of the initial code-books.

Vector Genetics in Malaria Control
2006Anopheles culicifacies is the major vector of rural malaria in the plains of India. Cytogenetic analysis of polytene chromosomes revealed that A. culicifacies is a complex of five sibling species designated as A, B, C, D, and E. Each sibling species has its own distribution pattern which is influenced by the environment. Sibling species differ in their

A theoretical assessment of the effects of vectors genetics on a host-vector disease
Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computing, 2020A host-vector disease model with insecticide resistance genes is proposed as a system of differential equations. The resistance-induced reproduction number $${\mathcal {R}}_e$$ is determined and qualitative stabilities analysis are provided.
