Comparative Role of <i>Aedes albopictus</i> and <i>Aedes aegypti</i> in the Emergence of Dengue and Chikungunya in Central Africa

2 Sept 2009

Abstract excerpt

Since its discovery in Nigeria in 1991, Aedes albopictus has invaded much of Central Africa, a region where Ae. aegypti also occurs. To assess the relationship between the invasion by Ae. albopictus and the recent emergence of dengue virus (DENV) and chikungunya virus (CHIKV), we undertook vector competence experiments on populations collected from Cameroon and conducted field investigations during concurrent...
