Mechanistic modelling of within-mosquito viral dynamics: Insights into infection and dissemination patterns
9 Oct 2023
Abstract excerpt
Vector or host competence can be defined as the ability of an individual to become infected and subsequently transmit a pathogen. Assays to measure competence play a key part in the assessment of the factors affecting mosquito-borne virus transmission and of potential pathogen-blocking control tools for these viruses. For mosquitoes, competence for arboviruses can be measured experimentally and results are...
