The paper documents rapid genomic and behavioral shifts toward human specialization in urban Aedes aegypti populations in West Africa over five years.

The paper analyzes microbial diversity in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes across life stages and breeding sites, finding convergent enrichment of Gammaproteobacteria, suggesting maternal transmission.

The paper develops a predictive model for human specialist behavior in Aedes aegypti by integrating population genomics and ecological factors.

This study examines morphological and genetic diversity in Aedes aegypti across different landscapes in West Africa, revealing significant variation in scaling patterns and mitochondrial lineages.

The paper develops de novo chromosome-scale genomes for two Aedes mosquito species and compares them to a reference genome to reveal chromosomal rearrangements and gene expansion differences.

This study identifies chromosomal inversions in Aedes aegypti using Hi-C, revealing geographic distribution patterns and potential roles in host choice and disease transmission.

This study evaluates the effects of Metarhizium fungal infection on Anopheles coluzzii larvae and adults, showing reduced survival and cross-stage maternal effects.

The paper introduces a dataset of mosquito wing images to support geometric morphometry and machine learning for species identification.

This study tracks insecticide resistance in Aedes aegypti over three years in Burkina Faso, showing increasing resistance to pyrethroids linked to kdr mutations.

This study sequenced 1,206 Aedes aegypti genomes to trace the origin and global spread of the species, revealing its evolution from a forest-dwelling to an urban, human-biting form and its impact on dengue risk.

The paper identifies novel persistent viruses in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes using small RNA sequencing and confirms their replication and transmissibility in cell lines.

This study investigates dengue virus susceptibility in African Aedes aegypti populations and finds significant variation and strain-specific interactions.
