The Role of Arthropod Vectors in Arbovirus Evolution

  • Chapter
Advances in Disease Vector Research

Part of the book series: Advances in Disease Vector Research ((VECTOR,volume 8))

Abstract

Arboviruses spend most of their time in their arthropod vectors. Their foray into a vertebrate host is usually a short-term expedient for amplification and consequent acquisition by more vectors. Thus arthropods have ample opportunity to influence the evolution of the arboviruses that they transmit. Evolution consists of a change in genotype with the ensuing creation of a new phenotype. Natural selection acts on the phenotypic differences resulting in the predominance of a particular genotype within a niche. The arthropod vector provides a milieu in which changes in the arboviral genotype occur, and exerts selection pressures on the different arboviral phenotypes.
