Stable Introduction of a Life-Shortening <i>Wolbachia</i> Infection into the Mosquito <i>Aedes aegypti</i>

1 Jan 2009

Abstract excerpt

Most pathogens require a relatively long period of development in their mosquito vector before they can be transmitted to a new human host; hence, only older insects are of epidemiological importance. The successful transfer of a life-shortening strain of the inherited bacterial symbiont, Wolbachia, into the major mosquito vector of dengue, Aedes aegypti, halved adult life span under laboratory conditions. The...
