Abstract Aedes aegypti mosquito has spread throughout the tropical and subtropical world and is currently the primary species responsible for transmitting dengue, urban yellow fever, Chikungunya, and Zika virus. This study aimed to investigate the inter- and intrapopulational genetic variability of Aedes aegypti through mitochondrial DNA, COI, ND4, and ND5 molecular markers in four municipalities in Mato Grosso. We used the Geneious software to build dendrograms for differentiating populations from each municipality. The interpopulational genetic distance obtained from sequence analysis showed a difference within populations through groups' formation in the ordering. Besides, we identified a difference in the interindividual genetic distance values, notably for the ND5 gene from the populations captured in the four municipalities. We recorded the smallest interindividual genetic distance within populations for populations from Chapada dos Guimarães. Extrinsic factors, including breeding habitat removal, can contribute to decreasing variability. Consequently, the dendrogram showed some similarities. Ovitrap monitoring, vector elimination, and genetic flow investigation stimulate actions to prevent transmitted diseases and support essential effective measures to control and fight Ae. aegypti.

The objective of this work was to evaluate, through a polymorphism in the ND5 gene of the bovine mitochondrial DNA, the frequency of Bos taurus indicus mtDNA individuals in a sample of Nellore purebred origin animals (n = 69) and crossbred animals originated from crosses of European sires and Nellore purebred origin females (n = 275). Only 2.26% (8/354) of the animals presented Bos taurus indicus mtDNA. The high frequency of Bos taurus taurus mtDNA in these animals can be a consequence of selection, once the animals studied are originated from selected lineages of high performance for meat production.

A dengue é uma das mais importantes arboviroses que atinge o homem e constitui um sério problema de saúde nas áreas tropicais, cujas condições climáticas são favoráveis à ocorrência de focos de Aedes aegypti. Armadilhas de oviposição acrescidas de infusão de feno foram instaladas em 19 pontos no Campus da Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso com o objetivo de verificar mensalmente o nível de infestação do vetor da dengue e a influência dos fatores abióticos. Os resultados obtidos foram comparados com dados abióticos de temperatura e umidade relativa do ar, e de precipitação pluviométrica, mensais e dos dias que as armadilhas permaneceram no campo. A chuva é o único fator abiótico que apresenta influência no nível de infestação dos vetores da dengue no local. Existem diferenças significativas entre as quantidades de ovos de Aedes aegypti encontrados em diferentes locais de coleta na mesma área de estudo. O número de ovos encontrados em cada ponto ao longo do ano não obedece a um padrão de distribuição único.

Hundred animal species have disappeared during the last century. By this time, approximately one-third of domestic animals have been in the endangered category. Hucul horses are also in this category; furthermore saving the genetic diversity beside the race preservation is an important challenge as well. The number of mares and stallions is only one of the expressive elements of genetic diversity; together with their quality determine the genetic variability of this breed. Beyond that, if an exact breed can originates from more founders, it can be more renewed genetically. Stud book documents these data by registering the mare families and stallions’ genealogical lineage. Molecular genetics, especially mitochondrial DNA analysis can make the precise identification of mare families possible. As a result of these molecular based methods, protection of genetic diversity, as well as breed preservation became more reliable. After the primer designing, the optimal primer pair was chosen which targets a 1092 bp length DNA sequence in the cytochrome b region. After the successful PCR optimalisation, we determined 170 Hucul mares’ sequences. According to our results, the samples compose ten haplotypes, which are much less, than the registered number of mare families in the stud book. Further investigations are needed to reach more representative results, and drawn the further consequences.

Resumo Objetivo Descrever o processo de integração do agente de combate às endemias (ACE) na Estratégia Saúde da Família (ESF). Métodos Estudo transversal descritivo. Os dados foram coletados por questionário semiestruturado autoaplicável, de fevereiro a maio de 2017, em quatro unidades de Saúde da Família na região urbana de Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brasil. Resultados Participaram 57 agentes comunitários de saúde (ACS) e 8 ACEs. Todos os participantes informaram realizar orientações ao morador e 58 realizavam controle mecânico durante a vistoria de imóveis, visando evitar e eliminar possíveis criadouros do Aedes aegypti. Quanto à integração dos ACEs na ESF, 18 participantes destacaram o trabalho em equipe como aspecto positivo, enquanto 15 referiram falta de autonomia para intervenções legais como aspecto negativo. Conclusão A integração do ACE na ESF é viável; contudo, ajustes devem ser realizados para potencializar as atividades, na perspectiva do trabalho compartilhado em uma mesma base territorial.
