Evaluation of Aedes aegypti control intervention with pyriproxyfen by lcWGS in Manacapuru, Amazonas, Brazil

Ae. aegypti mosquitoes are considered a global threat to public health due to its ability to transmit arboviruses such as yellow fever, dengue, Zika and Chikungunya to humans. The lack of effective arboviral vaccines and etiological treatments make vector control strategies fundamental in interrupting the transmission cycle of these pathogens. This study evaluated Ae. aegypti mosquito populations pre- and post-intervention period with disseminating stations of the larvicide pyriproxyfen to understand its potential influence on the genetic structure and population diversity of these vectors.
