Ecological and genetic studies of malaria mosquitoes of the Black Sea coast have not been recently conducted despite increasing human-caused environmental changes in the area. In this study, we investigated the species composition, geographical distribution, ecological preferences, and chromosomal polymorphism of malaria mosquitoes of the Crimean P...
The marine littoral acarofauna is of interest both in relation to the history of seas and as biological indicators of water quality, but it remains poorly studied. For the first time, we characterize the molecular genetic variability of four widespread, common and abundant species of littoral mesostigmatic mites: Phorytocarpais kempersi, Parasitida...
Experimental modelling of the microbiota of a biocontrol population of the predatory mite, Neoseiulus californicus bred on the spider mite, Tetranychus urticae was carried out to both eliminate bacterial pathogens and increase the viability of the mite line. We produced an isofemale line of N. californicus BioDefence2 and a derived line with an opt...
Various biological models are used to isolate West Nile virus, but their role as a selection factor that facilitates selection of isolates with certain properties is usually not evaluated. We compared pathogenic properties of three strains of the West Nile virus obtained from one sample of virus-containing material using different models: WNV Volgo...
Reproductive parasitism is a specific form of symbiosis in which a microorganism alters the reproduction of the host by interfering with the mechanisms of sex development. The review considers four changes in reproduction — male killing, parthenogenesis, feminization, and cytoplasmic incompatibility — determined by cytoplasmic bacteria. The cytogen...
