The mathematics of infectious diseases
- SIAM Review
, 2000
"... Abstract. Many models for the spread of infectious diseases in populations have been analyzed mathematically and applied to specific diseases. Threshold theorems involving the basic reproduction number R0, the contact number σ, and the replacement number R are reviewed for the classic SIR epidemic a ..."

RESEARCH ARTICLE Wolbachia Reduces the Transmission Potential of Dengue-Infected Aedes aegypti
"... Background Dengue viruses (DENV) are the causative agents of dengue, the world’s most prevalent arthropod-borne disease with around 40 % of the world’s population at risk of infection annu-ally.Wolbachia pipientis, an obligate intracellular bacterium, is being developed as a bio-control strategy aga ..."

Aedes aegypti
"... Despite of the fact that dengue outbreaks in the trop-ics have been worldwide for over 200 years, it is still the most important mosquito transmitted viral disease affecting man1. Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) is an arbovirus vector responsible for yellow fever in central and south America and ..."

Aedes aegypti, Aedes albopictus, and dengue in Argentina: current knowledge and future directions
"... Since the reinfestation of South American countries by Ae. aegypti, dengue fever (DF) and dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) have become a major public health concern. The aim of this paper was to review the information related with Aedes vectors and dengue in Argentina since the reintroduction of Ae. a ..."

Characteristics of the spatial pattern of the dengue vector, Aedes aegypti
- Am J Trop Med Hyg
, 2003
"... Abstract. We determine the spatial pattern of Aedes aegypti and the containers in which they develop in two neighborhoods of the Amazonian city of Iquitos, Peru. Four variables were examined: adult Ae. aegypti, pupae, con-tainers positive for larvae or pupae, and all water-holding containers. Adults ..."

Origin of the Dengue Fever Mosquito, Aedes aegypti, in California
, 2014
"... Dengue fever is among the most widespread vector-borne infectious diseases. The primary vector of dengue is the Aedes aegypti mosquito. Ae. aegypti is prevalent in the tropics and sub-tropics and is closely associated with human habitats outside its native range of Africa. While long established in ..."

Adult Survivorship of the Dengue Mosquito Aedes aegypti Varies Seasonally in Central Vietnam
"... Abstract The survival characteristics of the mosquito Aedes aegypti affect transmission rates of dengue because transmission requires infected mosquitoes to survive long enough for the virus to infect the salivary glands. Mosquito survival is assumed to be high in tropical, dengue endemic, countries ..."
