aegypti mosquitoes in PNG. Interestingly, usage of insecticides in PNG is low, apart from long-lasting insecticidal nets distributed for malaria control. Further investigations on how these resistant Ae. aegypti mosquito populations arose in PNG and how they are being sustained are warranted....
A. aegypti (L.) (Diptera: Culicidae) Rockefeller strain was maintained as described [11]. Females were blood fed using water-jacketed feeders (Chemglass Life Sciences, NJ, USA) [14] with defibrinated rabbit blood (Hemostat Laboratories, Dixon, CA, USA). 2.2. Western blot Tissue membrane ...
aegypti protein, affinity purified, and used at a concentration of 1:100 for immunohistochemistry. This antibody was also used at a concentration of 1:1000 for western blot assays and recognizes a band with a mass of ∼72 kDa. Deglycosylation of protein samples with glycerol-free PNGase F ...
aegypti larvae were also found in the 20 L plastic bin. In Busi, Ae. scutellaris larvae were collected from two 200 L drums, three 20 L drums and two 2 L plastic containers; Aedes notoscriptus (Skuse) larvae were collected from a tree hole. Ae. albopictus was not found in any of ...
Aedes aegypti feeds almost exclusively on humans, and therefore is not a concern for wildlife disease. SCIENTIFIC REPORTS | 3 : 1519 | DOI: 10.1038/srep01519 1 www.nature.com/scientificreports Previously, we discussed the WNV vector competency of the invasive Culex quinquefasciatus, a notorious...
Aedes aegypti chorion peroxidase (CPO) plays a crucial role in chorion hardening by catalyzing chorion protein cross-linking through dityrosine formation. The enzyme is extremely resistant to denaturing conditions, which seem intimately related to its post-translational modifications, including disulfide ...
Aedes aegypti (yellow fever mosquito) and Ae. albopictus (Asian tiger mosquito) are globally invasive pests that confer the world's dengue burden. Insecticide-based management has led to the evolution of insecticide resistance in both species, though the genetic architecture and geographical spread ...
Virus samples were treated with PNGase F (NEB) to remove N-linked oligosaccharides according to the manufacturer's protocol. 2.5. Mosquito Infections A. aegypti, RexD (Puerto Rico) derived Higgs White Eye (HWE) strain, were reared in an insect incubator (Percival Model I-36VL, Perry, IA,...
