Influence of host anemia on blood-feeding rate and egg production of Aedes aegypti (L.) (Diptera : Culicidae)

Creator:

Shieh, Jong-Neng

Abstract:

I tested a theoretical model proposing that anemia favors transmission of blood-borne parasites to vectors by accelerating the blood-feeding rate. Using Aedes aegypti, the yellow fever mosquito, initially, I was not able to confirm this phenomenon either in an artificial or a live system; anemia did not correlate with blood-feeding...

Antibacterial activities in the salivary glands of female mosquitoes Aedes aegypti

Creator:

Deng, Lanqian

Abstract:

Antibacterial activities in the salivary glands of female mosquitoes Aedes aegypti were investigated in this study. The mean salivary bacteriolytic activity, during a period of 14-day of female mosquitoes exposed to five different concentrations of Gram-positive bacteria Micrococcus lysodeikticus in the sucrose meal, was detected by a lysoplate method. A...

A lysozyme-like protein in the salivary glands of adult Aedes aegypti : functional and biochemical characteristics

Creator:

Pimentel, Gliceria Estandian, 1958-

Abstract:

This study investigated some functional and biochemical characteristics of a bacteriolytic protein in the salivary glands of adult Aedes aecupti. A method for the isolation of this protein from other mosquito salivary gland components is also described. Based on some of its biochemical properties, this bacteriolytic protein can be classified...

Salivation and engorgement parameters of sucking insect vectors : implications in pathogen transmission

Creator:

Shieh, Jong-neng

Abstract:

The probing behavior and feeding activity of green peach aphid, Myzus persicae Sulzer, on Bacillus thuringiensis ssp. tenebrionis- transgenic potatoes, insecticide treated potatoes, and host plants with different preference were electronically monitored. I found that first, transgenic potatoes had no effect on green peach aphid probing suggesting that transmission of...

Evaluation of behavioral response of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes to repellents using a novel olfactometer

Creator:

Doğan, Elif Barc̦in

Abstract:

Mosquito-borne pathogens are the cause of important, often deadly diseases worldwide; and, use of repellents is one of the components of mosquito control programs. The most effective mosquito repellent is N,N-dimethyl-m-toluamide, known as DEET. Speculation on the adverse effects of DEET have been on the rise since the 1980s, and...

Dissertation
A model of trophic evolutionary pathways

Creator:

Morris, A. Kimo

Abstract:

Calow (1983) realized that differences between parasites and their free-living relatives can be explained by the differences in nutrient richness. I propose a model that is based on Calow's idea which identifies the relative position of different trophic strategies (e.g. predation, grazing, parasitism and others) based on (1) the differences...

Masters Thesis
Stability and complexity : a reappraisal of the Competitive Exclusion Principle

Creator:

Duran, Israel N.

Abstract:

Elton (1927) realized that, intuitively at least, nature was complex and stable. And that the last property contributed to the first. This idea was challenged mathematically by Gardner and Ashby (1970) and May (1972), and in the years following various models have attempted to reconcile these opposing views. Unlike previous...

Mortality threshold for juvenile Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in an epidemiological model of Ceratomyxa shasta

Creator:

Ray, R. Adam

Abstract:

The myxozoan parasite, Ceratomyxa shasta, is the most significant pathogen of juvenile Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in the Klamath River, CA, USA. This parasite requires two hosts - a freshwater polychaete (Manayunkia speciosa) and a salmonid - to complete its life cycle. The complex life cycle and large geographic area...

Examining parameters of vectorial capacity for mosquitoes associated with stormwater catch basins in Corvallis, Oregon

Creator:

Townzen, Jill S.

Abstract:

This research examines two of parameters of vectorial capacity for mosquitoes associated with catch basins in Corvallis, Oregon. The parameters of interest were determining 1) abundance of the mosquito species associated with the catch basins and 2) feeding patterns of local mosquito species. Three species of mosquitoes were collected from...
