The evidence that climate warming is changing the distribution of Ixodes ticks and the
pathogens they transmit is reviewed and evaluated. The primary approaches are either …

Anthropophilic female mosquitoes are well known for their strong attraction to human hosts,
but plant nectar is a common energy source in their diets. When sugar sources are scarce …

Vector‐borne diseases cause significant financial and human loss, with billions of dollars
spent on control. Arthropod vectors experience a complex suite of environmental factors that …

Temperature is a strong driver of vector-borne disease transmission. Yet, for emerging
arboviruses we lack fundamental knowledge on the relationship between transmission and …

The rearing temperature of the immature stages can have a significant impact on the life-
history traits and the ability of adult mosquitoes to transmit diseases. This review assessed …

Arguably one of the most important effects of climate change is the potential impact on
human health. While this is likely to take many forms, the implications for future transmission …

Monitoring local mosquito populations for insecticide resistance is critical for effective vector-
borne disease control. However, widely used phenotypic assays, which are designed to …

Wolbachia is an intracellular endosymbiont infecting most arthropod and some filarial
nematode species that is vertically transmitted through the maternal lineage. Due to this …

Urban transmission of arthropod‐vectored disease has increased in recent decades.
Understanding and managing transmission potential in urban landscapes requires …

The time it takes for malaria parasites to develop within a mosquito, and become
transmissible, is known as the extrinsic incubation period, or EIP. EIP is a key parameter …
