Background Several observations support the hypothesis that vector-driven selection plays
an important role in shaping dengue virus (DENV) genetic diversity. Clustering of DENV …

Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus (Aedes) transmit highly pathogenic viruses such as
dengue, chikungunya, yellow fever, and Zika which can cause life-threatening diseases in …

Background The importance of tick-borne diseases is increasing all over the world, including
