Paradise supports an extended version of SQL and provides a graphical user interface for querying and browsing the databas...
متن کاملDispersal of Engineered Male Aedes aegypti Mosquitoes
BACKGROUND Aedes aegypti, the principal vector of dengue fever, have been genetically engineered for use in a sterile insect control programme. To improve our understanding of the dispersal ecology of mosquitoes and to inform appropriate release strategies of 'genetically sterile' male Aedes aegypti detailed knowledge of the dispersal ability of the released insects is needed. METHODOLOGY/PRI...
متن کاملThe Hypopharynx of Male and Female Mosquitoes
In blood-feeder female mosquitoes, the hypopharynx stylet is one part of the fascicle, the structure that pierces into the host skin during blood feeding. As other parts, the hypopharynx is a free stylet. However, since male mosquitoes do not feed blood, their mouthparts are less developed. The hypopharynx fuses with the inner wall of the labium, while maxillae and mandibles are much shorter th...
متن کاملMale Mosquitoes as Vehicles for Insecticide
BACKGROUND The auto-dissemination approach has been shown effective at treating cryptic refugia that remain unaffected by existing mosquito control methods. This approach relies on adult mosquito behavior to spread larvicide to breeding sites at levels that are lethal to immature mosquitoes. Prior studies demonstrate that 'dissemination stations,' deployed in mosquito-infested areas, can contam...
متن کاملA New Way to Make Waves
I describe a new algorithm for solving nonlinear wave equations. In this approach, evolution takes place on characteristic hypersurfaces. The algorithm is directly applicable to electromagnetic, Yang-Mills and gravitational fields and other systems described by second differential order hyperbolic equations. The basic ideas should also be applicable to hydrodynamics. It is an especially accurat...
