The burden of gene transfer from one mosquito generation to the next falls on the female
and her eggs. The selection of an oviposition site that guarantees egg and larval survival is …

Background To accelerate efforts towards control and possibly elimination of mosquito-
borne diseases such as malaria and lymphatic filariasis, optimally located outdoor …

“Mosquitoes–Identification, Ecology and Control” presents a wealth of information on the
bionomics, systematics, ecology, research techniques and control of both nuisance and …

Mosquito-transmitted pathogens cause major public health problems and contribute
substantially to the global burden of disease. Aedes mosquitoes transmit dengue, Zika …

Mosquitoes represent the major arthropod vectors of human disease worldwide transmitting
malaria, lymphatic filariasis, and arboviruses such as dengue virus and Zika virus …

The intensifying expansion of arboviruses highlights the need for effective invasive Aedes
control. While mass-trapping interventions have long been discredited as inefficient …

Disease transmission by arthropods normally requires at least 2 host contacts. During the
first, a pathogen (nematode, protozoan, or virus) is acquired along with the blood from an …

Abstract The Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus (Skuse), is a highly invasive container-
inhabiting species with a global distribution. This mosquito, similar to other Stegomyia …

Background & objectives: The ecology and distribution of various mosquito species is
important in the determination of mosquito vector abundance and associated diseases …

Abstract Invasive mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) play a key role in the spread of a number
of mosquito-borne diseases worldwide. Anthropogenic changes play a significant role in …
