North American Culex pipiens and Culex quinquefasciatus are competent vectors for Usutu virus

17 Aug 2018

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Usutu virus (USUV) is a member of the Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) serocomplex in the Flaviviridae family. Emergence of USUV in Europe has led to disease burdens in birds and created increasing concern for the potential zoonotic transmission to humans. Whilst USUV has not been detected in the New World, the identification of competent vector species in North America is critical in the assessment...
