This study optimizes an RT-PCR assay to detect Japanese encephalitis virus in mosquitoes from Laguna, Philippines, finding no detectable JEV genetic material in tested samples.

This study uses ddRAD-Seq to analyze genetic variation in Aedes aegypti populations across Metropolitan Manila, finding non-neutral SNPs associated with landscape and climate variables and contrasting spatial divergence between sexes.

This study examines how a primary road affects the genetic structure and gene flow of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes at a fine spatial scale, finding significant genetic differentiation across the road.

The paper analyzes the genetic structure of coconut scale insect populations in the Philippines, finding two genetically distinct outbreak groups with no recent gene flow between them.

This study uses machine learning to detect adaptive divergence in Ephemera strigata populations, finding higher resolution in Random Forest compared to traditional methods and identifying altitudinal adaptation.
