Diseases caused by arthropod-borne viruses are increasingly significant public health
problems, and novel methods are needed to control pathogen transmission. The hypothesis …

This latest volume of The Biology of Mosquitoes addresses fundamental aspects of the
interactions between mosquitoes and the viruses and bacteria that infect them, bringing …

Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) pose a significant threat to both human and animal
health worldwide. These viruses are transmitted through the bites of mosquitoes, ticks …

Arboviruses are transmitted to vertebrate hosts by biting arthropod vectors such as
mosquitoes, ticks, and midges. These viruses replicate in both arthropods and vertebrates …

Dugbe virus (tick-borne) multiplied to high titres in PS, BSC-1 LLC-MK2, BHK-2 and L cells.
Boophilus microplus (tick) cells also supported replication; but no growth in either Aedes …

Attachment, penetration and replication of viruses in cells are processes fundamental not
only to the survival of these ultramicroscopic parasites but to eventual clinical implications …

Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) pose a considerable threat to human and animal
health, yet effective control measures have proven difficult to implement, and novel means of …

Improved control of vector-borne diseases requires an understanding of the molecular
factors that determine vector competence. Apoptosis has been shown to play a role in …

In the last few decades, several mosquito-borne arboviruses of zoonotic origin have
established large-scale epidemic transmission cycles in the human population. It is often …

Efficient transmission, amplification, and dissemination of arboviruses require viral
replication invertebrate and invertebrate hosts. As a result, virions are exposed to two …
