The mosquito Aedes aegypti is the major vector of arboviral diseases, particularly of Dengue
fever, of which there are more than 100 million cases annually. Mosquitoes, such as A …

Culex pipiens mosquitoes are important disease vectors inhabiting temperate zones,
worldwide. The seasonal reduction in temperature and photoperiod accompanying late …

Insects, like most organisms, have an internal circadian clock that oscillates with a daily
rhythmicity, and a timing mechanism that mediates seasonal events, including diapause. In …

For over 70 years, researchers have debated whether the ability to use day length as a cue
for the timing of seasonal events (photoperiodism) is related to the endogenous circadian …

Objective To perform molecular cloning of the AGO2 and Dcr-2 gene fragments associated
with RNA interference pathway of Aedes albopictus and characterize the transcription level …

Insect circadian rhythms are generated by a circadian clock consisting of transcriptional/
translational feedback loops, in which CYCLE and CLOCK are the key elements in …

Circadian rhythms are periodic phenomena recurring with a period of about 24 h that are
observed in a variety of physiological functions. The rhythms are driven by an endogenous …

To reveal overwintering dormancy (diapause) mechanisms of Culex pipiens pallens (L.),
global protein expression differences at three separate time points represent nondiapause …

The yellow fever mosquito Aedes aegypti is an obligatory blood feeder and a major arboviral
disease vector, evoking severe public health concerns worldwide. In adult female …

ABSTRACT Background: Aedes albopictus (Skuse 1894) mosquitoes can transmit deadly
arboviruses and are globally invasive due to their ability to survive in both tropical and …
