The increasing trend of mosquito-borne pathogens demands more accurate global
estimations of infection and transmission risks between mosquitoes. Here, we systematically …

Because most emerging human pathogens originate in mammals, many studies aim to
identify host traits that determine the risk of sourcing zoonotic outbreaks. Studies regularly …

It is unclear whether West Nile virus (WNV) circulates between Africa and Europe, despite
numerous studies supporting an African origin and high transmission in Europe. We …

West Nile virus is a widely spread arthropod-born virus, which has mosquitoes as vectors
and birds as reservoirs. Humans, as dead-end hosts of the virus, may suffer West Nile Fever …

West Nile virus (WNV) is a globally significant vector-borne disease that is primarily
transmitted between birds and mosquitoes. Recently, there has been an increase in WNV in …

Environment determines the distribution and prevalence of vector-borne pathogens due to
its direct and indirect effects on the hosts, vectors, and pathogens. To investigate the …

Identifying reservoir host species is crucial for understanding the ecology of multi‐host
pathogens and predicting risks of pathogen spillover from wildlife to people. Predictive …

Birds are the main natural host of West Nile virus (WNV), the worldwide most distributed
mosquito-borne flavivirus, but humans and equids can also be sporadic hosts. Many avian …

Background In this report we describe the molecular and pathological characteristics of West
Nile virus (WNV) infection that occurred during the summer and fall of 2018 in avian species …

Blood feeding patterns of mosquitoes are a key component in the dynamics of arboviral
encephalitides transmission. In temperate Argentina, the members of the Culex pipiens …
