The Anopheles gambiae 2La chromosome inversion is associated with susceptibility to Plasmodium falciparum in Africa

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Chromosome inversions suppress genetic recombination and establish co-adapted gene complexes, or supergenes. The 2La inversion is a widespread polymorphism in the Anopheles gambiae species complex, the major African mosquito vectors of human malaria ...

Dynamic eIF3‐S6 Phase Separation Switch Instructed by m6A Modification Drives the Molting of Locusts

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This research reveals that reduced m6A modifications during insect molting trigger liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS) of the m6A reader eIF3‐S6, which binds and stabilizes key molting mRNAs, including EcR and Cht10. Disrupting m6A or LLPS causes cuticle remodeling defects and molting failure, highlighting the synergistic control of gene expression ...

Differential Transmission of Antiviral Drug-Resistant Chikungunya Viruses by Aedes Mosquitoes

open access: yesmSphere, 2018
The chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is transmitted by female Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes, mostly present in (sub)tropical regions. No antivirals are available to treat CHIKV infections.

Control of insect vectors and plant viruses in protected crops by novel pyrethroid-treated nets.

open access: yesPest Management Science, 2015
BACKGROUND Long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLITNs) constitute a novel alternative that combines physical and chemical tactics to prevent insect access and the spread of insect-transmitted plant viruses in protected enclosures.

Are agrochemical‐free and biodiversity‐friendly attributes substitutes or complements? Evidence from a coffee choice experiment

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract Eco‐labels inform consumers about the sustainable attributes of a product, but consumer face challenges to differentiate and select for specific attributes. Certification programs are similarly challenged to incentivize adoption of sustainable practices in product supply chains when consumer ability to differentiate sustainable attributes is ...

Hematophagous insects as vectors for frog trypanosomes.

open access: yesRevista de biologia tropical, 1977
De los resultados logrados al intentar infectar experimentalmente tres especies de artrópodos hematófagos (Rhodnius prolixus, Aedes aegypti y Culex pipiens) con un tripanosoma perteneciente al complejo Trypanosoma rotatorium, albergado por Hyla crepitans y Leptodactylus insularum se deduce que A.

Are all meats substitutes? A basket‐and‐expenditure‐based approach

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the relationship among animal‐based meat and plant‐based meat alternatives (PBMAs) using a basket‐and‐expenditure‐based choice experiment. In particular, we examine whether animal‐based meat products are substitutes or complements with PBMAs.
