Do mosquito-associated bacteria of the genus Asaia circulate in humans?

open access: yes, 2011
Symbiotic bacteria of the genus Asaia have been proposed as tools for control of mosquito-borne diseases, specifically malaria. However, safety issues are a major concern for paratransgenesis strategies.
