Vector competence of Aedes japonicus for chikungunya and dengue viruses [PDF]

European Mosquito Bulletin, 2011
The Asian bush mosquito Aedes japonicus japonicus (Theobald, 1901) [=Ochlerotatus japonicus (sensu Reinert et al., 2004) =Hulecoeteomyia japonica (sensu Reinert et al., 2006)], has invaded large parts of North America and has recently started to spread ...

Vector competence of anthropophilic mosquitoes for a new mesonivirus in Senegal [PDF]

Emerging Microbes & Infections, 2020
The mesoniviruses (MESOVs) belong to the newly described Mesoniviridae family (Order: Nidovirales). They have never been reported in Senegal until recently during a study in arbovirus emergence with the detection of a new species of MESOV named Dianke ...

Genetics of Mosquito Vector Competence [PDF]

Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews, 2000
SUMMARY Mosquito-borne diseases are responsible for significant human morbidity and mortality throughout the world. Efforts to control mosquito-borne diseases have been impeded, in part, by the development of drug-resistant parasites, insecticide-resistant mosquitoes, and environmental concerns over the application of ...

Vector Competence of Aedes aegypti from São Tomé and Príncipe for West Nile Virus Transmission [PDF]

Microorganisms
The global distribution of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, particularly in tropical regions, poses a significant public health risk due to their apparent ability to transmit arboviruses such as West Nile virus (WNV).

The Insect Microbiome Modulates Vector Competence for Arboviruses [PDF]

Viruses, 2014
Diseases caused by arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses), such as Dengue, West Nile, and Chikungunya, constitute a major global health burden and are increasing in incidence and geographic range. The natural microbiota of insect vectors influences various aspects of host biology, such as nutrition, reproduction, metabolism, and immunity, and recent ...

Vector Competence of California Mosquitoes for West Nile virus [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2002
To identify the mosquito species competent for West Nile virus (WNV) transmission, we evaluated 10 California species that are known vectors of other arboviruses or major pests: Culex tarsalis, Cx. pipiens pipiens, Cx. p. quinquefasciatus, Cx. stigmatosoma, Cx. erythrothorax, Ochlerotatus dorsalis, Oc. melanimon, Oc.

Impact of insecticide resistance on malaria vector competence: a literature review

Malaria Journal, 2023
Since its first report in Anopheles mosquitoes in 1950s, insecticide resistance has spread very fast to most sub-Saharan African malaria-endemic countries, where it is predicted to seriously jeopardize the success of vector control efforts, leading to ...

Inventory for the assessment of representational competence of vector fields [PDF]

Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021
Representational competence is essential for the acquisition of conceptual understanding in physics. It enables the interpretation of diagrams, graphs, and mathematical equations, and relating these to one another as well as to observations and experimental outcomes. In this study, we present the initial validation of a newly developed cross-contextual

Assessing vector competence of mosquitoes from northeastern France to West Nile virus and Usutu virus

bioRxiv, 2023
West Nile virus (WNV) and Usutu virus (USUV) are two arthropod-borne viruses that circulate in mainland France. Assessing vector competence has only been conducted so far with mosquitoes from southern France while an increasingly active circulation of ...

Vector Competence of Aedes albopictus for Yellow Fever Virus: Risk of Reemergence of Urban Yellow Fever in Brazil

Viruses, 2023
The risk of the emergence and reemergence of zoonoses is high in regions that are under the strong influence of anthropogenic actions, as they contribute to the risk of vector disease transmission. Yellow fever (YF) is among the main pathogenic arboviral
