INVESTIGATING THE DOSE-DEPENDENCY OF THE MIDGUT ESCAPE BARRIER USING A MECHANISTIC MODEL OF WITHIN-MOSQUITO DENGUE VIRUS POPULATION DYNAMICS.

Investigating the dose-dependency of the midgut escape barrier using a mechanistic model of within-mosquito dengue virus population dynamics.

Arboviruses makeup palette can emerge rapidly and cause explosive epidemics of severe disease.Some of the most epidemiologically important arboviruses, including dengue virus (DENV), Zika virus (ZIKV), Chikungunya (CHIKV) and yellow fever virus (YFV), are transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, most notably Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus.After a mosqu

Spatio-temporal Analysis of An Invasive Alien Species, Vachellia nilotica, on Rodrigues Island, Mauritius, Using Geographic Information Systems and Remote Sensing Techniques

Invasive alien species (IAS) constitute a large and growing environmental and socio-economic problem.Tropical islands, one of the richest habitats in the world, are especially vulnerable to invasions because of Sunglasses their island-specific flora and fauna.The aim of this study is thus to assess the viability of monitoring IAS distributions on s
