Faunistic inventory of the genus Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) in Mauritius Island, Indian Ocean: Diversity and spatial distribution of species of veterinary interest Inventaire faunistique du genre Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) sur l'île Maurice dans l'océan Indien: diversité et répartition spatiale des espèces présentant un intérêt vétérinaire

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Four Afrotropical Culicoides species are recorded in Mauritius with suspected or historically involvement in BTV and EHDV transmission. All species were distributed all over the island. While intra‐specific morphological variations were detected, genetic analyses did not reveal any cryptic diversity. Abstract Viruses transmitted by biting midge species

An updated checklist of Culicoides Latreille, 1809 biting midges from the highlands of eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo Une liste mise à jour des moucherons piqueurs de Culicoides Latreille, 1809 des hautes terres de l'est de la République démocratique du Congo

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
The highlands of eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) are home to critically endangered eastern gorillas (Gorilla beringei). Climate change could increase the abundance and distribution of Culicoides‐borne diseases. We utilized morphological and molecular techniques to identify Culicoides spp.

Comparative efficacy and studies of mode of action of minerals from diatoms against three species of filth flies

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Mortality for diatomaceous earth was observed as early as 2 h after exposure with 50% and 90% mortality at 3.5 and 4.6 h (LT50 and LT90, respectively) for Musca domestica. The LT50 and LT90 increased when the size of the fly species increased (M. domestica to Cochliomyia macellaria to Sarcophaga bullata) and increased for all three from 50 to 70 ...

Bayesian Inference for Joint Estimation Models Using Copulas to Handle Endogenous Regressors

Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study proposes a Bayesian approach for finite‐sample inference of the Gaussian copula endogeneity correction. Extant studies use frequentist inference, build on a priori computed estimates of marginal distributions of explanatory variables, and use bootstrapping to obtain standard errors. The proposed Bayesian approach facilitates precise

Estimating Correlations Between Clinical Trial Outcomes Using Generalised Estimating Equations

Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurately estimating the correlations among clinical trial outcomes is crucial for managing the risk of biopharmaceutical investment portfolios. We propose a novel algorithm for estimating correlations in large clinical trial datasets using a generalised estimating equations (GEE) framework.

Fully Modified GLS Estimation for Seemingly Unrelated Cointegrating Polynomial Regressions

Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A new feasible generalized least squares estimator is proposed. Our estimator incorporates (1) the inverse autocovariance matrix of multidimensional errors, and (2) second‐order bias corrections. The resulting estimator has the intuitive interpretation of applying a weighted least squares objective function to filtered data series.
