Mosquito vectors of arboviruses in French Polynesia
New Microbes and New Infections, 2019 The circulation of arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) throughout the Pacific is no exception in French Polynesia (FP). We review here the mosquito vectors involved or potentially involved in the transmission of arboviruses in FP.

An overview of mosquito vectors of Zika virus
Microbes and Infection, 2018 The mosquito-borne arbovirus Zika virus (ZIKV, Flavivirus, Flaviviridae), has caused an outbreak impressive by its magnitude and rapid spread. First detected in Uganda in Africa in 1947, from where it spread to Asia in the 1960s, it emerged in 2007 on the Yap Island in Micronesia and hit most islands in the Pacific region in 2013.

Mosquito Oviposition Behavior and Vector Control [PDF]
Insects, 2016 The burden of gene transfer from one mosquito generation to the next falls on the female and her eggs. The selection of an oviposition site that guarantees egg and larval survival is a critical step in the reproductive process.

Spatiotemporal analysis of mosquito-borne infections and mosquito vectors in mainland Portugal [PDF]
BMC Infectious DiseasesBackground The incidence of mosquito-borne infections has increased worldwide. Mainland Portugal’s characteristics might favour the (re)emergence of mosquito-borne diseases.

Wolbachia and Asaia Distribution among Different Mosquito Vectors Is Affected by Tissue Localization and Host Species [PDF]
MicroorganismsMicrobial communities play an important role in the fitness of mosquito hosts. However, the factors shaping microbial communities in wild populations, with regard to interactions among microbial species, are still largely unknown.

The virome of vector mosquitoes
Current Opinion in Virology, 2021 Mosquitoes are the major vectors for arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) of medical importance. Aedes aegypti and A. albopictus are the most prolific and widespread mosquito vectors being responsible for global transmission of dengue, Zika and Chikungunya viruses.

Transgenic refractory Aedes aegypti lines are resistant to multiple serotypes of dengue virus
Scientific Reports, 2021 The areas where dengue virus (DENV) is endemic have expanded rapidly, driven in part by the global spread of Aedes species, which act as disease vectors.

Robust network stability of mosquitoes and human pathogens of medical importance
Parasites & Vectors, 2022 Background The exact number of mosquito species relevant to human health is unknown, posing challenges in understanding the scope and breadth of vector–pathogen relationships, and how resilient mosquito vector–pathogen networks are to targeted ...
