The Aedes aegypti mosquito, a recognized vector for the arboviruses that cause dengue, chikungunya, and Zika, has expanded extensively across the southern hemisphere in recent years and can be found in nearly every tropical and subtropical region, as well as some temperate areas. Aedes aegypti: Ecology, Population Control, and Vector-borne Disease Prevention meticulously introduces the Aedes aegypti mosquito, it''s biology and microbiota, the diseases it transmits, and the most current and effective strategies for controlling it''s ever-spreading populations. Topics covered include state-of-the-art technologies such as microbial secondary metabolites, nano-drug delivery approaches, electrochemical biosensing, and machine learning in mosquito population and disease control.Professors, researchers, and students at and above the graduate level in the fields of entomology, parasitology, virology, and epidemiology will gain insights into recent developments in the control of Aedes aegypti and the illnesses it spreads. Companies and industry professionals working on new technologies aimed at this purpose can use this work to review current research and technologies in order to build upon it in their work.- Covers the aedes aegypti mosquito, including its life cycle, biology, and competence as a vector for diseases such as zika virus and dengue fever- Outlines strategies population control to prevent vector-borne illness, as well as potential challenges in control methods- Offers the latest, state-of-the-art information to entomologists, ecologists, and biologists working at research facilities and government agencies
