Using genetic variation in Aedes aegypti to identify candidate anti-dengue virus genes

Abstract Background Transcriptomic profiling has generated extensive lists of genes that respond to viral infection in mosquitoes. These gene lists contain two types of genes; (1) those that are responsible for the insect’s natural antiviral defense mechanisms, including some known innate immunity g...
