COSMOS integrates vector-pathogen metagenomics to monitor mosquito-borne diseases, detecting pathogens and mosquito communities in field samples with high accuracy.

This study evaluates how k-mer based tools affect abundance estimation in metagenomic data with closely related references, showing differential performance based on sample-reference distance and reference similarity.

This study finds that mass-planted large bromeliads in urban areas increase mosquito populations, raising public health risks.

This study uses genomic data to show that Aedes vigilax mosquito populations exhibit varying genetic structures between panmixia and localized stability, with implications for pest management.

This review identifies vertebrate animals other than humans, ardeid birds, and pigs with evidence of naturally occurring Japanese encephalitis virus infection, highlighting diagnostic limitations and potential roles in epidemiology.

The paper examines how waterbird species' functional diversity and traits correlate with Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) landscape distribution across Australia and the Central Indo-Pacific region.
