Impact of environmental antibiotic residues on mosquito microbiome and competency for zoonotic pathogens
Abstract Mosquitoes, infamously known for deadly diseases such as malaria, depend on their gut microbiome to fend off some pathogens. Recent laboratory findings indicate that disruptions to this microbial defense system—especially involving symbiotic bacteria can significantly impact their ability t...
