Host selection and forage ratio in West Nile virus-transmitting Culex mosquitoes: Challenges and knowledge gaps.

Host selection and forage ratio in West Nile virus-transmitting Culex mosquitoes: Challenges and knowledge gaps.

<h4>Background</h4>To date, no specific therapy or vaccination is available for West Nile virus (WNV) infections in humans; preventive strategies represent the only possibility to control transmission. To focus these strategies, detailed knowledge of the virus dynamics is of paramount im...
