Dietary Influences on the Longevity and Reproductive Success of Anopheles aquasalis in Laboratory Studies: Sucrose vs. Honey

Insects
Malaria continues to be a major public health challenge in tropical and subtropical regions. Anopheles aquasalis, a key laboratory model for malaria research, plays a critical role in the study of vector–parasite interactions. Although vector life traits

Evidence of Zika Virus Infection in Pigs and Mosquitoes, Mexico

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2021
Evidence suggests that pigs seroconvert after experimental exposure to Zika virus and are potential sentinels. We demonstrate that pigs are also susceptible to natural Zika virus infection, shown by the presence of antibodies in domestic pigs in Yucatan,

Mitochondrial introgression hampers the DNA barcoding of cryptic yellow fever vectors Haemagogus capricornii Lutz and Hg. janthinomys in the Atlantic Forest, Brazil

Parasites & Vectors
Background Yellow fever is a major public health concern in Brazil, transmitted in sylvatic cycles by Haemagogus and Sabethes mosquitoes. Among them, Haemagogus janthinomys and Hg.

Microbial Odorant Detection Guides Drosophila Parasitoids Seeking Hosts in Fermenting Fruits

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Yeast microbes in fermenting fruits attract both host flies and their parasitoid wasps. Female Leptopilina boulardi detect yeast‐emitted ethyl esters via two olfactory receptors, LbouOR167 and LbouOR136. A conserved residue, Leu159, is critical for binding these compounds, enabling female wasps to locate host‐rich habitats.

Wolbachia wMel and wAlbB strains differentially impact the vector competence of Aedes aegypti with a Brazilian genetic background for DENV-1 virus

Parasites & Vectors
Background Aedes aegypti mosquitoes infected with the endosymbiotic bacterium Wolbachia pipientis have been released as a sustainable strategy to mitigate arbovirus transmission.

DENV-1 Titer Impacts Viral Blocking in wMel Aedes aegypti with Brazilian Genetic Background

Viruses
Several countries have been using Wolbachia deployments to replace highly competent native Aedes aegypti populations with Wolbachia-carrying mosquitoes with lower susceptibility to arboviruses such as dengue, Zika, and chikungunya.

Repellents inhibit P450 enzymes in Stegomyia (Aedes) aegypti. [PDF]

, 2012
The primary defence against mosquitoes and other disease vectors is often the application of a repellent. Despite their common use, the mechanism(s) underlying the activity of repellents is not fully understood, with even the mode of action of DEET ...
