Abstract The global economic cost of Aedes-borne diseases, such as dengue, is estimated to be in the billions of dollars annually. In this scenario, a sustained vector control strategy is the only alternative to control dengue, as well as other disea

Ades aegypti is the most important arbovirus vector in the world, and new strategies are under evaluation. Biological studies mentioning the occurrence of a second mate in Aedes aegypti can interfere with vector control program planning, which involv

Transposons are a class of selfish DNA elements that can mobilize within a genome. If mobilization is accompanied by an increase in copy number (replicative transposition), the transposon may sweep through a population until it is fixed in all of its

Mosquitos transgênicos incapazes de transmitir malária podem ser um controle alternativo, mas atualmente não estão disponíveis. O estudo da interação mosquitopatógeno é importante para melhorar o desenho de genes. A proteína circumsporozoit
