Aedes aegypti mosquitoes are the main vectors of arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) of
public health significance, such as the flaviviruses dengue virus (DENV) and Zika virus …

The traditional assumption that vector-borne pathogens should evolve towards a benign
relationship with their arthropod vectors has been challenged on theoretical grounds and …

Arboviruses are transmitted between arthropod vectors and vertebrate host. Arboviral
infection in mosquitoes is initiated when a mosquito feeds on a viremic host. Following …

Mosquitoes are considered the most important vectors for the transmission of pathogens to
humans. Aedes aegypti is a unique species, not only by its highly anthropophilic and …

Cache Valley (CV) virus, an arthropod-borne bunyavirus, recently has emerged as a
significant veterinary pathogen causing infertility and congenital malformations in North …

Mosquito-borne arboviruses cause important and expanding disease problems. In this
article, Colin Leake reviews the increasing knowledge of the complex interaction of …

Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) are transmitted between vertebrate hosts and
arthropod vectors. An inherently complex interaction among virus, vector, and the …

Horizontally transmitted mosquito-borne viruses enter the midgut with a blood meal then
disseminate to infect the salivary glands. En route to the salivary glands, these viruses …

Background Aedes aegypti is a vector mosquito of major public health importance,
transmitting arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) such as chikungunya, dengue, yellow …

The alphaviruses are members of a group of infectious agents once referred to as
“arboviruses”(ar thropod-bo rne viruses). Although alphaviruses are clearly identified as …
