The paper develops a predictive model for human specialist behavior in Aedes aegypti by integrating population genomics and ecological factors.

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 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 identifies chromosomal inversions in Aedes aegypti using Hi-C, revealing geographic distribution patterns and potential roles in host choice and disease transmission.

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

This study shows that low humidity increases Zika virus infection in Ae. aegypti mosquitoes, affecting survival, infection rates, and dissemination.

The paper identifies novel persistent viruses in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes using small RNA sequencing and confirms their replication and transmissibility in cell lines.
