Profile of Small RNAs, vDNA Forms and Viral Integrations in Late Chikungunya Virus Infection of <i>Aedes albopictus</i> Mosquitoes

The Asian tiger mosquito <i>Aedes albopictus</i> is contributing to the (re)-emergence of Chikungunya virus (CHIKV). To gain insights into the molecular underpinning of viral persistence, which renders a mosquito a life-long vector, we coupled small RNA and whole genome sequencing approa...
