Permanental Vectors [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2011
A permanental vector is a generalization of a vector with components that are squares of the components of a Gaussian vector, in the sense that the matrix that appears in the Laplace transform of the vector of Gaussian squares is not required to be either symmetric or positive definite.

Kochen-Specker Vectors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics A: Mathematical and General, 38, (7), 1577-1592 (2005), 2004
We give a constructive and exhaustive definition of Kochen-Specker (KS) vectors in a Hilbert space of any dimension as well as of all the remaining vectors of the space. KS vectors are elements of any set of orthonormal states, i.e., vectors in n-dim Hilbert space, H^n, n>3 to which it is impossible to assign 1s and 0s in such a way that no two ...

Enriching Word Vectors with Subword Information [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the Association for Computational Linguistics, 2016
Continuous word representations, trained on large unlabeled corpora are useful for many natural language processing tasks. Popular models that learn such representations ignore the morphology of words, by assigning a distinct vector to each word. This is

The voltage-gated sodium channel, para, limits Anopheles coluzzii vector competence in a microbiota dependent manner

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The voltage-gated sodium channel, para, is a target of DDT and pyrethroid class insecticides. Single nucleotide mutations in para, called knockdown resistant or kdr, which contribute to resistance against DDT and pyrethroid insecticides, have been ...

Genetics and immunity of Anopheles response to the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae overlap with immunity to Plasmodium

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Entomopathogenic fungi have been explored as a potential biopesticide to counteract the insecticide resistance issue in mosquitoes. However, little is known about the possibility that genetic resistance to fungal biopesticides could evolve in mosquito ...

Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals developmental heterogeneity among Plasmodium berghei sporozoites

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
In the malaria-causing parasite’s life cycle, Plasmodium sporozoites must travel from the midgut of a mosquito to the salivary glands before they can infect a mammalian host. However, only a fraction of sporozoites complete the journey.

Resistance status of Anopheles gambiae (s.l.) to four commonly used insecticides for malaria vector control in South-East Nigeria

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Progress made in the control of malaria vectors globally is largely due to the use of insecticides. However, success in the fight against malaria has slowed down or even stalled due to a host of factors including insecticide resistance.

Population genetics and genetic variation of Ctenocephalides felis and Pulex irritans in China by analysis of nuclear and mitochondrial genes

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2022
Background Fleas are the most economically significant blood-feeding ectoparasites worldwide. Ctenocephalides felis and Pulex irritans can parasitize various animals closely related to humans and are of high veterinary significance. Methods In this study,

Metagenomics of the midgut microbiome of Rhipicephalus microplus from China

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2022
Background Ticks, which are ectoparasites of animals, may carry multiple pathogens. The cattle tick Rhipicephalus microplus is an important bovine parasite in China. However, the midgut microbiome of R. microplus from China has not been characterized via

Comparative analysis of the anticoagulant activities and immunogenicity of HSC70 and HSC70TKD of Haemaphysalis flava

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2022
Background Haemaphysalis flava is a hematophagous ectoparasite that acquires the nutrition needed for development and reproduction by sucking blood and digesting the blood meal.
