Heritability and phenotypic plasticity of biting time behaviors in the major African malaria vector Anopheles arabiensis

This study estimates the heritability of biting time in Anopheles arabiensis mosquitoes and finds significant genetic contribution to shifts in biting behavior.

Emergence of Lyme disease on treeless islands in Scotland, UK

This study examines Lyme disease emergence on treeless islands in Scotland, finding higher tick prevalence and human exposure linked to increased incidence.

Rapid ageing and species identification of natural mosquitoes for malaria surveillance

This paper develops a deep learning method to rapidly identify mosquito species and age from mid-infrared spectra, with high accuracy for malaria vectors.

The coefficient of determination R2 and intra-class correlation coefficient from generalized linear mixed-effects models revisited and expanded

The paper expands the estimation of R2 and ICC for generalized linear mixed models to non-Gaussian distributions and discusses methodological considerations.
