Institute for Human Infections and Immunity, WHO Collaborating Center for Tropical Diseases, and Department of Pathology, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, Texas Department of Agriculture, Fort Collins, Colorado Comision Mexico Estado Unidos para la Prevencion de la Fiebre Aftosa y Otras Enfermedades Exoticas de los Animales, Mexico City, Mexico
Am J Trop Med Hyg 85:1146-53. 2011..These mosquito populations were concentrated in areas that appear to represent foci of stable, enzootic VEEV circulation...
Vector competence of Culex (Melanoconion) taeniopus for equine-virulent subtype IE strains of Venezuelan equine encephalitis virusEleanor R Deardorff
Center for Tropical Diseases and Department of Pathology, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, TX, USA
Am J Trop Med Hyg 82:1047-52. 2010..Thus, subtype IE VEEV strains in Chiapas are able to efficiently infect enzootic and epizootic vectors and cause morbidity and mortality in horses...
Experimental infections of Oryzomys couesi with sympatric arboviruses from MexicoEleanor R Deardorff
Department of Pathology, University of Texas Medical Branch, 301 University Boulevard, Galveston, TX 77555, USA
Am J Trop Med Hyg 82:350-3. 2010..Animals from all three cohorts survived infection and developed viremia with no apparent signs of illness and long-lasting antibodies. Thus, O. couesi may play a role in the general maintenance of these viruses in nature...

Mosquitoes put the brake on arbovirus evolution: experimental evolution reveals slower mutation accumulation in mosquito than vertebrate cellsNikos Vasilakis
Center for Biodefense and Emerging Infectious Diseases and Department of Pathology, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, Texas, United States of America
PLoS Pathog 5:e1000467. 2009..Moreover, these findings suggest that patterns of genetic evolution may differ between viruses replicating in mammalian and mosquito cells...
