This study examines how drought tolerance of Aedes aegypti mosquito eggs varies with climate conditions and human association, finding urban mosquitoes have higher survival under arid conditions.

This study shows that parental exposure to wet and dry conditions affects egg viability, thermotolerance, and nutrient composition in Aedes aegypti.

This study examines the thermotolerance of mosquito eggs and adults from Aedes species, finding that human-associated lineages have higher egg viability under high-temperature stress.

This study shows that repeated blood feeding during drought increases mosquito survival and viral transmission potential by enhancing activity and CO2 sensing.

This study compares sleep and activity patterns of Aedes albopictus mosquito strains from different geographic origins, finding heritable differences in activity levels but not peak activity times.

This study compares activity and sleep levels across 17 Ae. aegypti lines, finding population differences linked to host preference, ancestry, and human population density.
