- Description
Arboviruses are caused by a group of viruses spread to people (host) by the bite of infected insects (vector). It is within these hosts that arboviruses replicate and undergo genomic evolution. However, how arboviruses evolve, are transmitted, or cause disease in nature remain unclear. Therefore, this study established a Zika virus (ZIKV) vector-borne transmission system in immunocompromised mice to...
