Species-specific susceptibility and low transmission of the historical Japanese encephalitis virus Nakayama strain in North American Culex mosquitoes

Rachel L. Fay, Elyse M. Banker, Anne F. Payne, Alan P. Dupuis, J Stout, Alexis Russell, Victoria Schnurr, Sean M. Bialosuknia, Laura Munn, Erin A. Mordecai, Alexander T. Ciota

This study assesses the vector competence of North American Culex mosquitoes for the JEV Nakayama strain across temperatures, finding low but non-zero transmission potential with Cx. pipiens as the most permissive species.

Mosquito infection-mediated trait variation alters temperature-dependent transmission of West Nile virus

Rachel L. Fay, Mauricio Cruz‐Loya, Elyse M. Banker, Erin A. Mordecai, Alexander T. Ciota

The paper examines how WNV infection and temperature interact to affect mosquito traits and transmission potential, finding infection alters thermal performance and reduces estimated transmission intensity.
