Zika virus and temperature modulate Elizabethkingia anophelis in Aedes albopictus

Parasites & Vectors, 2021
Background Vector-borne pathogens must survive and replicate in the hostile environment of an insect’s midgut before successful dissemination. Midgut microbiota interfere with pathogen infection by activating the basal immunity of the mosquito and by ...
