<i>Wolbachia</i> infection in <i>Aedes aegypti</i> does not affect its vectorial capacity for <i>Dirofilaria immitis</i>
2024-03-04
Abstract excerpt
Mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue and filariasis are a growing public health concern in endemic countries. Biological approaches, such as the trans-infection of Wolbachia pipientis in mosquitoes, are an alternative vector control strategy, especially for arthropod-borne viruses such as dengue. In the present study, the effect of Wolbachia (wMel strain) on the vectorial capacity of Aedes aegypti for Dirofi...
