Egg-laying by female Aedes aegypti shapes the bacterial communities of breeding sites

K. D. Mosquera Duran, L. E. Martinez Villegas, G. da Rocha Fernandes, M. Rocha David, R. Maciel-de-Freitas, L. A. Moreira, M. G. Lorenzo

This study shows that female Aedes aegypti modify bacterial communities in breeding sites through oviposition, reducing alpha diversity and promoting specific taxa that benefit larval development.

Vector competence of Aedes aegypti, Aedes albopictus, and Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes for Mayaro virus

L. A. Moreira, T. N. Pereira, F. D. Carvalho, S. F. De Mendonca, M. N. Rocha

This study evaluates the vector competence of three mosquito species for Mayaro virus, finding high transmission rates in Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus but not in Culex quinquefasciatus.
