Hoffmann A, Goundar A, Long S, Johnson P, Ritchie S
Med Vet Entomol . 2014 Aug; 28 Suppl 1:90-7. PMID: 25171611
Wolbachia can suppress dengue and control mosquito populations and this depends on the successful invasion of Wolbachia-infected mosquitoes into local populations. Ovitrap data collected during the recent invasion of wMel-infected...

Williams C, Johnson P, Ball T, Ritchie S
Med Vet Entomol . 2012 Dec; 27(3):313-22. PMID: 23205694
New mosquito control strategies centred on the modifying of populations require knowledge of existing population densities at release sites and an understanding of breeding site ecology. Using a quantitative pupal...

Johnson P, Spitzauer V, Ritchie S
J Med Entomol . 2012 Feb; 49(1):29-34. PMID: 22308768
Mini-mark-release-recapture experiments were conducted in suburban Cairns, Australia to establish the sampling rate of the Biogents-Sentinel (BGS) trap for adult Aedes aegypti (L.). Small cohorts of marked mosquitoes (30 females...

Endersby N, Hoffmann A, White V, Ritchie S, Johnson P, Weeks A
J Med Entomol . 2011 Sep; 48(5):999-1007. PMID: 21936318
Diseases transmitted by mosquitoes could be controlled if vector populations were replaced with strains that have reduced vector competency. Such a strategy is being developed for control of dengue virus...

Hoffmann A, Montgomery B, Popovici J, Iturbe-Ormaetxe I, Johnson P, Muzzi F, et al.
Nature . 2011 Aug; 476(7361):454-7. PMID: 21866160
Genetic manipulations of insect populations for pest control have been advocated for some time, but there are few cases where manipulated individuals have been released in the field and no...

Walker T, Johnson P, Moreira L, Iturbe-Ormaetxe I, Frentiu F, McMeniman C, et al.
Nature . 2011 Aug; 476(7361):450-3. PMID: 21866159
Dengue fever is the most important mosquito-borne viral disease of humans with more than 50 million cases estimated annually in more than 100 countries. Disturbingly, the geographic range of dengue...

Caragata E, Poinsignon A, Moreira L, Johnson P, Leong Y, Ritchie S, et al.
Insect Mol Biol . 2010 Dec; 20(2):215-24. PMID: 21114562
Transcriptional profiling is an effective method of predicting age in the mosquito Aedes aegypti in the laboratory, however, its effectiveness is limited to younger mosquitoes. To address this we used...

Convertine A, Diab C, Prieve M, Paschal A, Hoffman A, Johnson P, et al.
Biomacromolecules . 2010 Oct; 11(11):2904-11. PMID: 20886830
The ability of small interfering RNA (siRNA) to efficiently silence the expression of specific genes provides the basis for exciting new therapies based on RNA interference (RNAi). The efficient intracellular...

Med Vet Entomol . 2009 Nov; 23(4):303-16. PMID: 19941596
In Cairns, Australia, the impacts on Aedes aegypti L. (Diptera: Culicidae) populations of two types of 'lure & kill' (L&K) lethal ovitraps (LOs), the standard lethal ovitrap (SLO) and the...
