The paper compares outcomes of X-poisoning and X-shredding in malaria mosquitoes by timing Cas9 expression during spermatogenesis, finding that timing determines distortion type.

This study identifies how dengue virus uses mosquito Syntenin to package and secrete viral RNA into salivary exosomes, revealing a mechanism for viral RNA incorporation into extracellular vesicles.

This paper develops a genetic sexing strain in Aedes albopictus mosquitoes by combining CRISPR-engineered selectable traits with sex conversion, enabling efficient and accurate sex separation.

This study shows that the yellow gene in Anopheles coluzzii affects pigmentation and increases susceptibility to Plasmodium berghei through microbiota-dependent mechanisms.

This study maps sex-specific transcriptome dynamics in Anopheles gambiae embryos, revealing early sex-biased gene expression and dosage compensation mechanisms.

This study shows that REL2/NF-κB signaling regulates midgut bacterial homeostasis in Anopheles gambiae, with loss of REL2 causing dysbiosis and reduced Plasmodium falciparum prevalence.

This study identifies a cytochrome P450 gene variant that influences dengue virus susceptibility in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes.

This study shows that arboviruses reduce salivation in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes by disrupting salivary gland organization, potentially enhancing virus transmission.

This study investigates X-poisoning gene drives in mosquitoes, finding that sex distortion is mainly due to loss of X-bearing sperm rather than postzygotic lethality.

This paper describes a gene drive targeting Saglin and Lipophorin in Anopheles mosquitoes to reduce Plasmodium transmission, showing successful spread in caged populations.

The paper develops a hemocyte-specific promoter tool in Anopheles gambiae to study immune functions and pathogen interactions in malaria mosquitoes.
