Comparative analysis of gut microbiota of mosquito communities in central Illinois

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2017
Background The composition and structure of microbial communities that inhabit the mosquito midguts are poorly understood despite their well-documented potential to impede pathogen transmission.

The Destruction of Mosquitoes [PDF]

Nature, 1891
ON two occasions, when proceeding northwards to Arctic Norway, I was much interested in observing the fact that the plague of mosquitoes, which is so intolerable there, especially prevails in latitudes beyond the northern range of the swallow.

Biological Control Strategies for Mosquito Vectors of Arboviruses

Insects, 2017
Historically, biological control utilizes predatory species and pathogenic microorganisms to reduce the population of mosquitoes as disease vectors. This is particularly important for the control of mosquito-borne arboviruses, which normally do not have ...

Environmental factors influence the local establishment of Wolbachia in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes in two small communities in central Vietnam [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]

Gates Open Research, 2022
Background: The wMel strain of Wolbachia has been successfully introduced into Aedes aegypti mosquitoes and subsequently shown to reduce transmission of dengue and other pathogens, under both laboratory and field conditions.

Rural buyers' perception about mosquito repellants [PDF]

Mosquito repellants prevent mosquito bites and prevention of "man-mosquito contact" is a critical factor in transmission and spread of any disease through mosquitoes particularly in rural area.

Once bitten, twice shy: A modeling framework for incorporating heterogeneous mosquito biting into transmission models [PDF]

arXiv
The potential for outbreaks of mosquito-borne disease is linked to the frequency at which mosquitoes feed on blood, also known as the biting rate. But standard models of mosquito-borne disease transmission inherently assume that mosquitoes bite only once per reproductive cycle, an assumption commonly violated in nature. Drivers of multiple biting, like

Can mosquitoes fly in the rain? [PDF]

arXiv, 2011
Collisions with raindrops are one of many obstacles insects face during flight. In this fluid dynamics video, we present a series of high-speed films of impacts between mosquitoes and raindrops. We also present drop impacts upon insect mimics, which are unsupported styrofoam balls of the same mass as mosquitoes.

Assessing Insect Growth Regulator Resistance Using Bioassays: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Methoprene and Pyriproxyfen Inhibition of Emergence in Three Vector Mosquito Species

Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease
This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to: (1) characterize the distribution of published inhibition of emergence (IE50, IE90, and IE95) reference values for pyriproxyfen and methoprene in Culex pipiens [L.], Aedes aegypti [L.], and Aedes ...
