Sexual transmission of <i>Anopheles gambiae</i> densovirus (AgDNV) leads to disseminated infection in mated females

2022-02-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Anopheles gambiae densovirus (AgDNV) is an insect-specific, single-stranded DNA virus that infects An. gambiae , the major mosquito species responsible for transmitting malaria parasites throughout Sub-Saharan Africa. AgDNV is a benign virus that is very specific to its mosquito host and therefore has potential to serve as a vector control tool via paratransgenesis (genetic modification of mo...
