Malaria is one of the deadliest diseases. Because of the ineffectiveness of current malaria-
control methods, several novel mosquito vector-based control strategies have been …

Malaria is still the most widespread parasitic disease and causes the most infections
globally. Owing to improvements in sanitary conditions and various intervention measures …

Plasmodium relies on numerous agonists during its journey through the mosquito vector,
and these agonists represent potent targets for transmission-blocking by either inhibiting or …

Zika (ZIKV) and dengue virus (DENV) are transmitted to humans by Aedes mosquitoes.
However, the molecular interactions between the vector and ZIKV remain largely …

Gene drives hold promise for the genetic control of malaria vectors. The development of
vector population modification strategies hinges on the availability of effector mechanisms …

Gene drives for mosquito population replacement are promising tools for malaria control.
However, there is currently no clear pathway for safely testing such tools in endemic …

Herbivorous insects have evolved many mechanisms to overcome plant chemical defences,
including detoxification and sequestration. Herbivores may also use toxic plants to reduce …

The increasing resistance to currently available insecticides in the malaria vector,
Anopheles mosquitoes, hampers their use as an effective vector control strategy for the …

Mosquito transgenesis and gene-drive technologies provide the basis for developing
promising new tools for vector-borne disease prevention by either suppressing wild …

Gene drives for mosquito population modification are novel tools for malaria control.
Strategies to safely test antimalarial effectors in the field are required. Here, we modified the …
