Are sterile mosquitoes the answer to malaria elimination?
The supplement, edited by Dr Mark Benedict, who along with the other editors led the development of this technology at the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna, describes how SIT may be used a...

Read moreThe defense strategy of plants
If the mechanism that plants use to defend themselves can be understood, it will be possible to produce plants that are resistant to disease. The Plant Immunity Research Group is also undertaking rese...
Life Sciences | Read moreScientists of the UGR obtain a bioinsecticide to control the Mediterranean fruit fly
The Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata, is a world plague which represents one of the most serious problems for agriculture. However, the control methods currently present in the market for t...
Life Sciences | Read moreUM School of Medicine researchers find extreme genetic variability in malaria parasite
Researchers at the University of Maryland School of Medicine Center for Vaccine Development (CVD) have charted the extreme genetic differences that occur over time in the most dangerous malaria parasi...
Life Sciences | Read moreAs ash borer claims more trees, researcher at ISU works for species survival
As the devastating insect emerald ash borer is working its way across North America destroying almost all the native ash trees it encounters, Widrlechner is rapidly collecting and storing ash tree see...
Agricultural and Forestry Science | Read moreNowhere to hide: Some species are unable to adapt to climate change due to their genes
Adaptation is a physiological or behavioural change that makes an organism better suited to its environment, and more likely to survive and reproduce. Because adaptations usually occur due to a change...
Life Sciences | Read moreAphids Saved From Gruesome Death by Virus-Infected Bacteria
But for pea aphids under attack by parasitic wasps, carrying infected bacteria is the difference between life and a slow death, according to new research from The University of Arizona in Tucson. ...
Life Sciences | Read moreTobacco plants yield the first vaccine for the dreaded 'cruise ship virus'
The new vaccine is unique in its origin — it was "manufactured" in a tobacco plant using an engineered plant virus. Researchers are enlisting plants in the battle against norovirus, swine fl...
Life Sciences | Read moreBiological clocks of insects could lead to more effective pest control
With further research, the scientists said, it may be possible to tap into this genetic characteristic, identify the times that a target insect is most vulnerable to a specific pesticide, and use that...
Life Sciences | Read moreDiscovering soybean plants resistant to aphids and a new aphid
Soybean aphids made their first appearance in North America in the summer of 2000, resulting in tremendous crop losses for farmers. U of I researchers began immediately searching for a variety of soyb...
Agricultural and Forestry Science | Read moreRestoring a natural root signal helps to fight a major corn pest
A longstanding and fruitful collaboration between researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology and the University of Neuchâtel in Switzerland, together with contributions from colleagu...
Agricultural and Forestry Science | Read moreScientists Use Bed Bugs' Own Chemistry Against Them
The researchers found that stirring up the bed bugs by spraying their environment with synthetic versions of their alarm pheromones makes them more likely to walk through agents called desiccant dusts...
Life Sciences | Read moreJeepers Creepers! Climate Change Threatens Endangered Honeycreepers
As climate change causes temperatures to increase in Hawaii’s mountains, deadly non-native bird diseases will likely also creep up the mountains, invading most of the last disease-free refuges for hon...
Ecology, The Environment and Conservation | Read moreNew understanding of dengue virus points way to possible therapies for dengue fever
Now, researchers have identified cellular components in mosquitoes and in humans that dengue virus uses to multiply inside these hosts after infecting them. Their findings could lead to the developmen...
Health and Medicine | Read moreEvolution-proof insecticides may stall malaria forever
Each year malaria -- spread through mosquito bites -- kills about a million people, but many of the chemicals used to kill the insects become ineffective. Repeated exposure to an insecticide breeds a ...
