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 …

Extrinsic environmental factors influence the spatiotemporal dynamics of many organisms,
including insects that transmit the pathogens responsible for vector‐borne diseases (VBDs) …

Abstract Purpose of Review To describe a collection of recent work published on thermal
suitability for vector-borne diseases, in which mapping approaches illustrated the …

Background Climate and climate change affect the spatial pattern and seasonality of malaria
risk. Season lengths and spatial extents of mapped current and future malaria transmission …

Despite their economic and ecological importance, some insect species are human disease
vectors. In addition, agricultural pests cause significant losses in a large number of important …

Health-related risks from climate change are growing exponentially, but direct attribution of
health outcomes to human influence on the climate remains challenging,. Here, we leverage …

Background Sporozoites isolated from the salivary glands of Plasmodium-infected
mosquitoes are a prerequisite for several basic and pre-clinical applications. Although …

Ingestion of an additional blood meal (s) by a hematophagic insect can accelerate
development of several vector-borne parasites and pathogens. Most studies, however, offer …

Phenotypic flexibility allows individuals to reversibly modify trait values and theory predicts
an individual's relative degree of flexibility positively correlates with the environmental …

Laboratory-derived temperature dependencies of life-history traits are increasingly being
used to make mechanistic predictions for how climatic warming will affect vector-borne …
