Invasiveness ofAedes aegyptiandAedes albopictusand Vectorial Capacity for Chikungunya Virus

5 Dec 2016

Abstract excerpt

In this review, we highlight biological characteristics of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus, 2 invasive mosquito species and primary vectors of chikungunya virus (CHIKV), that set the tone of these species' invasiveness, vector competence, and vectorial capacity (VC). The invasiveness of both species, as well as their public health threats as vectors, is enhanced by preference for human blood. Vector...
