Beskrivning
Evolutionary Adaptations and Mosquito-Borne Viruses comprises comprehensive reviews of various topics in mosquito adaptations and mosquito-virus interactions, with insights into future research prospects. The topics covered in this volume include mechanisms of insecticide resistance, thermal and desiccation tolerance, insect-specific viruses and their interactions with pathogenic viruses, mosquito viral immunity, factors affecting vector competence, host preference, saliva and viral pathogenesis, microbiota and symbionts, gene drives and genetic modification of mosquitoes, and microRNA roles in mosquito-virus interactions.

  • Provides the latest updates on topical areas in mosquito adaptations and mosquito-virus interactions from experts in the fields
  • Offers prospects for research and translations related to mosquito and disease control
  • Provides conceptual strategies for applying innovative methods in mosquito and disease management

Mer information

Dr. Russell Jurenka is a professor in the Department of Entomology at Iowa State University. Dr Sassan Asgari is a Professor at the University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia. He specialises in molecular entomology, focusing on host-pathogen interactions, insect virology, and RNA-mediated regulatory mechanisms. His research aims to understand how insects interact with viruses at the molecular level, especially through small RNA pathways such as microRNAs and RNA interference, and the roles of these pathways in antiviral responses. He also studies the influence of symbiotic microorganisms such as Wolbachia on viral replication and mosquito physiology. His expertise has earned him recognition through conference invitations and editorial roles, including serving as Editor-in-Chief of Insect Molecular Biology, Associate Editor (Insect Viruses) of Virus Genes, and a member of the editorial board of Virus Research and Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. He is a fellow of the Royal Entomological Society and has authored or co-authored over 160 peer-reviewed journal articles and 14 book chapters.
