Aedes | Description, Life Cycle, Disease Transmission | Britannica Aedes, (genus Aedes), genus of more than 950 species of mosquitoes, some members of which are serious biting nuisances and vectors of disease, sometimes transmitting potentially deadly pathogens (disease-causing organisms) to humans and other animals
Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus Mosquitoes Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus can transmit viruses to people when they bite, including dengue, chikungunya, and Zika Currently, only dengue virus has been transmitted by mosquitoes in California, and this happens very rarely
Aedes: What Do We Know about Them and What Can They Transmit? In this chapter, we will comprehensively delineate the taxonomy of Aedes mosquitoes, their geographical distribution, evolutionary biology of chikungunya and dengue viruses, mechanism of transmission, and proposed vector control strategies against Aedes mosquitoes
Biology and Behaviour of Aedes aegypti in the Human Environment . . . Aedes aegypti has become the laboratory model organism of choice for studies into the sensory biology of mosquitoes, including fundamental work on the perception of human vs animal host cues in the anthropophilic Aaa form Some key published work is described here
About Aedes-transmitted diseases - Global Dengue Aedes-Transmitted . . . Over the last few decades, diseases transmitted by the Aedes mosquito have spread rapidly Population growth, urbanization, international travel and geographic expansion of mosquitoes have driven epidemics of Aedes -transmitted viruses, including dengue, Zika, chikungunya and yellow fever
Aedes aegypti - Wikipedia Aedes aegypti ( ˈiːdiːz US: eɪdz or ˈeɪdiːz from Greek αηδής 'hateful' and eɪˈdʒɪpti from Latin, meaning 'of Egypt'), sometimes called the Egyptian mosquito, dengue mosquito or yellow fever mosquito, is a mosquito that spreads diseases like dengue fever, yellow fever, and chikungunya
Aedes aegypti - Factsheet for experts - European Centre for Disease . . . Aedes aegypti is the vector involved in urban transmission of yellow fever where only humans are the amplifying host Aedes aegypti has been shown to transmit yellow fever virus transovarially to F1 progeny under laboratory conditions [40] and field collection studies have also confirmed this in nature [29]
