Mosquitoes as Suitable Vectors for Alphaviruses
Alphaviruses are arthropod-borne viruses and are predominantly transmitted via mosquito vectors. This vector preference by alphaviruses raises the important question of the determinants that contribute to vector competence. There are several tissue barriers of the mosquito that the virus must overcome in order to establish a productive infection. Of importance are the midgut, basal lamina and t...
متن کامل[Culicidae mosquitoes as emerging vectors of diseases].
A review is presented of the relationships between the so-called emerging infectious diseases and what may be defined as emerging vectors. These include not only those that have recently appeared but also those that present remarkable behavioral changes. Specific factors leading to that emergence can be associated with the powerful human influence on the environment. So the man-made, i.e. anthr...
متن کاملNew series of Drosophila expression vectors suitable for behavioral rescue.
Drosophila melanogaster remains an excellent model system for understanding complex biological processes. This is in large part due to the many tools that can be applied experimentally. The control of transgene expression in Drosophila has been an extremely successful technique for assessing genetic function. P-element mediated germ-line transformation is routinely used to generate novel Drosop...
متن کاملOcclusion Area as Suitable Guidance for Terrestrial Laser Scanner Localization
Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS) technology, have altered quickly data acquisition for map production in surveying. In many cases, it is impossible to complete surveying of the desired area without TLS displacement in one station to another. Occlusion is innate in data acquisition, with this type of device. To solve this problem, TLS devices should be placed in different locations and scanning o...
متن کاملTicks and mosquitoes as vectors of Borrelia burgdorferi s. l. in the forested areas of Szczecin.
The aim of the study was to determine the infection level of adult forms and larvae of ticks and mosquitoes with Borrelia burgdorferi in the forested areas of Szczecin. A total of 1699 ticks Ixodes ricinus, including 1422 nymphs, 277 adult forms and 2862 mosquito females representing the genera Aedes (89.6%) and Culex (10.4%) were collected between the years 2004 and 2005. A further 3746 larvae...
