The evolution of virulence of West Nile virus in a mosquito vector: implications for arbovirus adaptation and evolution

BACKGROUND: Virulence is often coupled with replicative fitness of viruses in vertebrate systems, yet the relationship between virulence and fitness of arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) in invertebrates has not been evaluated. Although the interactions between vector-borne pathogens and their in...
