A difference in larval mosquito size allows a biocontrol agent to target the invasive species

M. C. Russell

This study shows that smaller size of invasive Ae. albopictus larvae compared to native Cx. pipiens larvae increases predation efficiency by Megacyclops viridis copepods, supporting their use as biocontrol agents.

No impact of biocontrol agent's predation cues on development time or size of surviving Aedes albopictus under optimal nutritional availability

M. C. Russell, L. J. Cator

This study tests if copepod predation affects survival and development of Aedes albopictus larvae, finding no significant sublethal impact on surviving individuals.

Both consumptive and non-consumptive effects of predators impact mosquito populations and have implications for disease transmission

M. C. Russell, C. M. Herzog, Z. Gajewski, C. Ramsay, F. El Moustaid, M. V. Evans, T. Desai, N. Gottdenker, S. Hermann, A. G. Power, A. C. McCall

This study shows predators reduce mosquito survival and size, impacting disease transmission, and links predator avoidance behavior to drought-related West Nile virus cases.

Size, not temperature, drives cyclopoid copepod predation of invasive mosquito larvae

M. C. Russell, A. Qureshi, C. G. Wilson, L. J. Cator

This study finds that copepod size, not temperature, determines predation efficiency on invasive mosquito larvae, suggesting size-based biocontrol strategies.
