Genetic structure and kdr mutations in Aedes aegypti populations along a road crossing the Amazon Forest in Amapá State, Brazil [PDF]
Insecticide resistance in Aedes aegypti poses a significant threat to disease control. One form of resistance, caused by kdr mutations in the Na V gene, hinders vector control efforts in Brazil.

The influence of different sources of blood meals on the physiology of Aedes aegypti harboring Wolbachia wMel: mouse blood as an alternative for mosquito rearing [PDF]
Background Aedes aegypti control programs have failed to restrain mosquito population expansion and, consequently, the spread of diseases such as dengue, Zika, and Chikungunya.

High larvicidal efficacy of yeast-encapsulated orange oil against Aedes aegypti strains from Brazil [PDF]
Background Botanical substances such as essential oils (EOs) have demonstrated insecticidal properties and are a valid option for vector control. However, free EOs are unreliable as mosquito larvicides due their easy degradation by environmental exposure

Population Structure of the Invasive Asian Tiger Mosquito, <i>Aedes albopictus</i>, in Europe. [PDF]
The Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus, is currently the most widespread invasive mosquito species in the world and poses a significant threat to human health. We genotyped 748 Ae. albopictus mosquitoes from locations across Europe and Asia (the native range) to examine population genetic structure and found evidence for multiple independent ...

Embryonic development and egg viability of wMel-infected Aedes aegypti [PDF]
Background Aedes aegypti is a major disease vector in urban habitats, involved in the transmission of dengue, chikungunya and Zika. Despite innumerous attempts to contain disease outbreaks, there are neither efficient vaccines nor definite vector control

In tune with nature: Wolbachia does not prevent pre-copula acoustic communication in Aedes aegypti [PDF]
Background Mosquito-borne diseases are rapidly spreading to vast territories, putting at risk most of the world’s population. A key player in this scenario is Aedes aegypti, a hematophagous species which hosts and transmits viruses causing dengue and ...
