Temperature influences West Nile virus evolution and adaptation

2025-03-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Abstract body</h4> West Nile virus (WNV), the most common mosquito-borne disease in the continental U.S., is vectored by Culex spp. mosquitoes. Since its introduction to New York State (NYS) in 1999, WNV has become endemic. NYS temperatures have risen by 0.14°C per decade since 1900, with larger increases linked to higher WNV transmission. Using surveillance and sequencing data, we find a significant correla...
