Influence of Host Blood Meal Source on Gut Microbiota of Wild Caught <i>Aedes aegypti</i>, a Dominant Arboviral Disease Vector

Influence of Host Blood Meal Source on Gut Microbiota of Wild Caught <i>Aedes aegypti</i>, a Dominant Arboviral Disease Vector

Blood feeding is an important behavior of <i>Aedes aegypti</i>, a dominant arboviral disease vector, as it can establish and transmit viruses to humans. Bacteria associated with the mosquito gut can modulate the biological characteristics and behavior of disease vectors. In this study, w...
