Check out our review by @joaotmarques ' lab! We offer a fresh perspective on mosquito-virus interactions, highlighting the potential role of symbiotic insect-specific viruses as targets for biotechnological approaches to control arbovirus transmission. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

We were also able to identify divergent viral sequences within the dark matter of metagenomics. Our bioinformatics approach allowed us to discover at least three new viruses, revealed highly divergent novel viral sequences and interesting cases of putative viruses that lack

A. japonicus is an invasive mosquito species competent for the transmission of arboviruses such as Zika and Usutu. Using a combination of sequence dependent and independent strategies, we characterized a complex set of highly prevalent virome.

Wondered why mosquitoes don't get sick when infected with arboviruses? Carla Saleh and her team @SalehLabParis @institutpasteur are studying this among other key questions on vector-virus interactions. Come her team's latest findings THURSDAY 20th. All welcome and please RT!

We are glad to share our new preprint on @biorxivpreprint In a collaborative work with scientists from Wageningen, the Netherlands, we from Gorben P Pijlman's Lab and @joaotmarques's Lab uncovered the virome of Aedes japonicus, the "asian bush mosquito"...
