Chikungunya virus vector competency of Brazilian and Florida mosquito vectors
PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018 Chikungunya virus is a vector-borne alphavirus transmitted by the bites of infected female Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus. In Brazil between 2014 and 2016 almost 320 thousand autochthonous human cases were reported and in Florida numerous imported CHIKV viremic cases (> 3,800) demonstrate the potential high risk to establishment of local transmission ...

No detectable fitness cost of infection by cell-fusing agent virus in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes
Royal Society Open ScienceAedes mosquitoes are well-known vectors of arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses). Mosquitoes are more frequently infected with insect-specific viruses (ISVs) that cannot infect vertebrates.
