Mosquito Research : recent advances in pathogen interactions, immunity, and vector control strategies

Mosquito Research recent advances in pathogen interactions, immunity, and vector control strategies

With around 3,500 species identified so far, mosquitoes can be found in virtually every environment and continent around the globe. Blood-feeding biters (e.g., Anopheles, Culex, Aedes, Ochlerotatus, and Mansonia) are among the most influential vectors for harboring and transmitting mosquito-borne di...
