Small RNA sequencing of field Culex mosquitoes identifies patterns of viral infection and the mosquito immune response
30 Jun 2023
Abstract excerpt
Mosquito-borne disease remains a significant burden on global health. In the United States, the major threat posed by mosquitoes is transmission of arboviruses, including West Nile virus by mosquitoes of the Culex genus. Virus metagenomic analysis of mosquito small RNA using deep sequencing and advanced bioinformatic tools enables the rapid detection of viruses and other infecting organisms, both pathogenic and...
