PLoS Pathogens, 2021 Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) require replication across a wide range of temperatures to perpetuate. While vertebrate hosts tend to maintain temperatures of approximately 37°C-40°C, arthropods are subject to ambient temperatures which can have a ...

Immunization by replication-competent controlled herpesvirus vectors [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 2018 ABSTRACT Replication-competent controlled virus vectors were derived from virulent HSV-1 wildtype strain 17 syn + by placing one or two replication-essential genes under the stringent control of a gene switch that is co-activated by heat and an antiprogestin.

Parasites & Vectors, 2012 Background Temperature is known to induce changes in mosquito physiology, development, ecology, and in some species, vector competence for arboviruses. Since colonized mosquitoes are reared under laboratory conditions that can be significantly different ...

Zika virus outbreak in the Pacific: Vector competence of regional vectors
PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018 In 2013, Zika virus (ZIKV) emerged in French Polynesia and spread through the Pacific region between 2013 and 2017. Several potential Aedes mosquitoes may have contributed to the ZIKV transmission including Aedes aegypti, the main arbovirus vector in the region, and Aedes polynesiensis, vector of lymphatic filariasis and secondary vector of dengue ...

Mosquitoes as Suitable Vectors for Alphaviruses
Viruses, 2018 Alphaviruses are arthropod-borne viruses and are predominantly transmitted via mosquito vectors. This vector preference by alphaviruses raises the important question of the determinants that contribute to vector competence.

Aedes albopictus is a competent vector of Zika virus: A meta-analysis.
PLoS ONE, 2019 BACKGROUND:Much work has been done in recent years to determine the vector competence of Aedes albopictus (Skuse) for Zika virus (ZIKV). If competent, Ae.

COMPARATIVE GENOMICS OF VECTOR AND NON-VECTOR INSECTS: UNCOVERING MOLECULAR DETERMINANTS OF VECTOR COMPETENCE [PDF]
Acta Scientifica MalaysiaVector competence is the inherent capacity of an insect to transmit diseases to plants and other organisms. It’s a complex feature influenced by several factors such as their physiology, microbiology, environment and some genetic factors.
