Microbial exposure across life reduces susceptibility of <i>Aedes aegypti</i> to Zika virus by enhancing blood digestion and limiting midgut cell infection
2022-11-10
Abstract excerpt
The worldwide expansion of mosquito-borne pathogens necessitates improved control measures, including approaches to reduce transmission by mosquito vectors. Reducing transmission is challenging because determinants of vector competence for viruses like Zika (ZIKV) are poorly understood. Our previous work established that Aedes (Ae.) aegypti larvae reared in environmental water containing microbes are less suscept...
