Bosc de Zika

El bosc de Zika és un bosc tropical prop d'Entebbe, Uganda. Zika significa "descuidat" en l'idioma ganda. Com a propietat de l'Uganda Virus Research Institute (UVRI) d'Entebbe està protegit i restringit a la investigació científica. El bosc té una superfície de prop de 25ha al costat dels pantans de la Badia de Waiya, una entrada del Llac Victòria. L'accés fàcil i la combinació de diversos ecosistemes, el bosc de Zika és molt adequat per a l'estudi de mosquits. Segons el UVRI, la mida de l'àrea de recerca del bosc està al voltant de les 12 ha. El bosc té una rica biodiversitat de plantes i papallones nocturnes, i és llar d'al voltant de 40 tipus de mosquits. UVRI també manté un insectari. El bosc és accessible als visitants per l'observació d'aus. L'ex-president dels EUA Jimmy Carter va visitar el bosc per aquest propòsit. Referències
Zika Forest

The Zika (or Ziika) Forest ( ) is a tropical forest near Entebbe in Uganda. Ziika means 'overgrown' in the Luganda language. As the property of the Uganda Virus Research Institute (UVRI) of Entebbe, it is protected and restricted to scientific research. The forest covers an area of about 25 hectares (62 acres) next to the swamps of Waiya Bay, an inlet of Lake Victoria. Easily accessible and combining several ecosystems, the Zika Forest is well suited to the study of mosquitoes. According to the UVRI, the size of the research area of the forest is about 12 hectares (30 acres). The forest has a rich biodiversity in plants and moths, and is home to about 40 species of mosquitoes. The UVRI also maintains an insectary for studying disease vectors. The forest is also accessible to visitors for bird watching. Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter once visited the forest for that purpose. The Zika virus as well as the moths Sidisca zika and Milocera zika are named after the forest. The Zika Forest is where the infected Aedes mosquito first spread Zika to rhesus monkeys, then spreading further to humans. Mosquito studies Investigations of mosquitoes at Zika started in 1946 as part of the study of human yellow fever at the Yellow Fever Research Institute (renamed East African Virus Research Institute in 1950, and then Uganda Virus Research Institute in 1977), established in Entebbe, Uganda in 1936 by the Rockefeller Foundation. In 1947, the Zika virus was isolated from a rhesus monkey stationed at Zika. In 1960, a 36.6-metre (120-ft) steel tower was moved from Mpanga Forest to Zika to study the vertical distribution of mosquitoes, allowing for a comprehensive study of the mosquito population in 1964. In that same year, the Zika virus was identified from a collected Aedes africanus sample. No routine mosquito collections were performed for about the next four decades, while human activities encroached on the forest. An updated mosquito collection finally took place in 2009 and 2010. The name Zika has been made notorious by the Zika virus, involved in a growing number of outbreaks around the globe from 2007 onwards.

Bosque Zika

El bosque de Ziika (pronunciado /θika/, en inglés: /ˈziːkə/), conocido también con el nombre de bosque Zika, es una selva tropical cerca de Entebbe en Uganda. Ziika significa "cubierto de maleza" en idioma Luganda. Como propiedad del Instituto de Investigación de Virus de Uganda (UVRI) de Entebbe, se encuentra protegido y restringido a la investigación científica.​ El bosque cubre un área de aproximada de 25 hectáreas, junto a los pantanos de la bahía de Waiya, una entrada del lago Victoria. De fácil acceso y combinando varios ecosistemas, el bosque Zika es adecuado para el estudio de los mosquitos.​ Según la UVRI, el tamaño del área de investigación del bosque es de aproximadamente de 12 hectáreas.​ El bosque tiene una rica biodiversidad en plantas y polillas y alberga alrededor de 40 especies de mosquitos. El UVRI también mantiene un insectario . El bosque también es accesible para la observación de aves. El ex presidente estadounidense Jimmy Carter visitó una vez el bosque con ese propósito.​ El virus del Zika y las polillas Sidisca zika y Milocera zika llevan el nombre del bosque. El bosque de Zika es el origen de la infección del mosquito Aedes, el cual propaga el virus Zika a los monos rhesus y luego este se extiende a los humanos. [cita requerida] Estudios de mosquitos Las investigaciones de mosquitos en Zika comenzaron en 1946 como parte del estudio de la fiebre amarilla humana en el Instituto de Investigación de la Fiebre Amarilla (renombrado Instituto de Investigación de Virus de África Oriental en 1950, y luego Instituto de Investigación de Virus de Uganda en 1977), establecido en Entebbe, Uganda en 1936 por la Fundación Rockefeller. En 1947, el virus Zika fue aislado de un mono rhesus estacionado en Zika.​​ En 1960, una torre de acero de 36,6 metros (120 pies) fue trasladada del bosque de Mpanga al Zika para estudiar la distribución vertical de los mosquitos, lo que permitió un estudio exhaustivo de la población de mosquitos en 1964.​ En ese mismo año, el virus Zika se identificó a partir de una muestra recolectada de Aedes africanus.​ No se realizaron colecciones de mosquitos durante cuatro décadas, mientras que las actividades humanas invadieron el bosque. Una colección actualizada de mosquitos finalmente tuvo lugar en 2009 y 2010.

Forêt de Zika

La forêt de Zika est une forêt tropicale près d'Entebbe, en Ouganda. Géographie Localisation La forêt couvre une superficie d'environ 25 hectares à côté du marais de Waiya Bay, à l'entrée du lac Victoria. Facilement accessible et en combinant plusieurs écosystèmes, la forêt de Zika est très adaptée à l'étude de moustiques. La taille de la zone de recherche de la forêt est d'environ 12 ha. La forêt a une biodiversité riche en plantes et papillons de nuit, et on dénombre environ 40 types de moustiques dans l'insectarium. La forêt est accessible aux observateurs d'oiseaux. Jimmy Carter l'a visitée. Historique Études de moustiques Les enquêtes concernant les moustiques à virus Zika ont commencé en 1946 dans le cadre de l'étude de la fièvre jaune humaine à l'Institut de recherche de la fièvre jaune (rebaptisé Institut de recherche de virus Afrique de l'Est en 1950, puis Uganda Virus Research Institute en 1977), établi à Entebbe, en Ouganda, en 1936 par la fondation Rockefeller. En 1947, le virus Zika a été isolé à partir d'un singe de Zika. En 1960, une tour en acier 36,6 M a été déplacée à proximité de la forêt de Zika pour étudier la distribution verticale des moustiques, ce qui a permis l’étude globale de la population de moustiques en 1964. En 1964, le virus Zika a été décrit par Haddow et al. à partir d'une collection de moustiques. Depuis environ quatre décennies, il n'y a pas de collection de moustiques, et les activités humaines empiètent sur la forêt. Une collection de moustiques a été effectuée sur les périodes 2009-2010.[Passage contradictoire] Toponymie Zika signifie « envahi » dans la langue luganda.

Zikawoud

Het Zikawoud, ook Zikabos genoemd (Engels: Zika Forest) is een klein geïsoleerd tropisch bos in Oeganda, op ongeveer 6 kilometer van Entebbe. Het bos is eigendom van het Uganda Virus Research Institute en wordt geheel gereserveerd voor het doen van wetenschappelijk onderzoek. Het bos heeft een oppervlak van ± 0,25 km2, waarvan volgens UVRI ongeveer de helft wordt gebruikt voor het wetenschappelijke onderzoek. Er worden onder meer insecten en vogels bestudeerd. Het gevarieerde landschap maakt het naast elkaar bestaan van verschillende ecosystemen mogelijk. Het bos leent met zich met name voor het bestuderen van muskieten. Het onderzoek hiernaar begon in 1946, als onderdeel van een studie naar de gele koorts bij mensen dat werd uitgevoerd door UVRI (destijds het Yellow Fever Research Institute). Bij dit onderzoek werd in april 1947 bij een resusaap voor het eerst het zikavirus vastgesteld. Het betreffende virus is daarom vernoemd naar de plek waar het is ontdekt. Het woord zika is Luganda voor "overgroeid, overwoekerd".
Floresta de Zika

A floresta de Zika ou de Zica é uma floresta tropical situada nas proximidades de Entebbe, em Uganda. Localização A floresta cobre uma superfície de aproximadamente 25 hectares ao lado do pantano de Waiya Bay, na entrada do lago Victoria. Facilmente acesível e combinando vários ecossistemas, a floresta tem uma rica biodiversidade em plantas e mariposas, além de abrigar cerca de 40 tipos de mosquitos no insectarium, sendo portanto uma área favorável ao estudo desses insetos. Trata-se de uma área protegida, destina apenas a pesquisas. A extensão da zona de pesquisa da floresta é de aproximadamente 12 ha. A floresta é também acessível aos observadores de pássaros. Estudos de mosquitos As pesquisas de mosquitos transmissores da febre Zika começaram em 1946, no contexto de um estudo sobre a febre amarela no Instituto de Pesquisa sobre a Febre Amarela (em 1950, renomeado Instituto de Pesquisa de Vírus da África Oriental e, em 1977, Uganda Virus Research Institute), sediado em Entebbe, Uganda, em 1936, pela Fundação Rockefeller. Em 1947, o vírus Zika (ZIKV) foi isolado a partir de amostras sorológicas de um macaco rhesus da floresta de Zika. Em 1960, uma torre de aço de 36,6 m foi deslocada para as proximidades da floresta de Zika para estudar a distribuição vertical dos mosquitos, permitindo assim um estudo global da população de mosquitos em 1964. Naquele mesmo ano, o ZIKV foi descrito por A. J. Haddow et al., a partir de uma coleta de mosquitos. Há aproximadamene quarenta anos que não há coleta de mosquitos e as atividades humanas já invadem a floresta. Uma coleta de mosquitos foi realizada entre 2009 e 2010. Toponímia Zika significa 'invadido', na língua luganda. Referências
Зика (лес)

Лес Зи́ка (на языке аборигенов «Зика» буквально означает «заросли») — тропический лес, расположенный возле города-порта Энтеббе в Уганде (Африка). На языке луганда название леса означает «старый». Лес занимает площадь около 25 гектаров (62 акра) возле болотистой местности в бухте озера Виктория. Лес Зика отличается богатым биоразнообразием растений и бабочек, в нём обитает около 40 видов комаров. Легкодоступность и сочетание нескольких экосистем в лесу Зика делает его весьма удобным и привлекательным для изучения комаров. В Энтеббе расположен научно-исследовательский институт вирусологии (англ. Uganda Virus Research Institute, UVRI), который является собственностью Уганды. Институт ведёт научные исследования и ограничен для посещений. По данным UVRI, размер исследовательской площади леса составляет около 12 га. Кроме того, UVRI содержит собственный инсектарий. Исследователь Уиллис Абурашид из университета в Фениксе опубликовал несколько статей, посвящённых влиянию глобального потепления на регион. Лес доступен для посещений и наблюдения за птицами. Одним из известных посетителей стал бывший президент США Джимми Картер, который однажды побывал в лесу на экскурсии. Исследование комаров Исследование комаров в лесу Зика начато в 1946 году в рамках изучения обнаруженного здесь нового варианта жёлтой лихорадки — трансмиссивного заболевания человека. Научно-исследовательский институт жёлтой лихорадки в Уганде основан в 1936 году Фондом Рокфеллера (переименован в Восточно-Африканский вирусологический институт в 1950 году, а затем в 1977 году создан научно-исследовательский институт вирусологии в Энтеббе). В 1947 году был выделен вирус Зика от макаки-резус, отловленной на территории леса. Естествоиспытатели ожидали обнаружить обычный вирус жёлтой лихорадки, однако выделенный ими инфекционный агент, хотя и принадлежал к роду и семейству флавивирусов, но до этого не был известен. В 1952 году вирус Зика был выделен у человека в Уганде. В 1960 году 36,6-метровая стальная башня была перенесена в лес Зика для изучения вертикального распределения комаров, что позволило провести всеобъемлющее исследование численности комаров в 1964 году. Также в 1964 году вирус Зика был описан Haddow и соавторами, которые выделили его из комаров, собранных в лесу Зика. На протяжении четырёх десятилетий регулярный сбор комаров не проводили, при этом хозяйственная деятельность распространялась в глубь лесной территории. Очередной сбор комаров провели в 2009—2010 годах. См. также Вирус Зика Лихорадка Зика Примечания Ссылки UVRI/MRC official webpage (англ.). Архивировано из оригинала 1 декабря 2012 года.
