This review examines how urban green infrastructures affect vector-borne disease risks for humans and animals, finding mixed impacts depending on vector type and environmental context.

The paper uses whole-genome sequencing of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes to identify genes associated with local adaptation in California, finding 112 genes showing strong signals of environmental adaptation.

The paper identifies AaegOR11, an odorant receptor in Aedes aegypti, that responds to fenchone and phenolic compounds, suggesting its role in detecting repellents.

The paper demonstrates intrareceptor inhibition in mosquito odorant receptors through electrophysiological and behavioral studies.

This study analyzes genome-wide divergence in invasive Aedes aegypti populations in California, identifying three genetic clusters and evidence of hybridization among them.
