Potential for Extrinsic Incubation Temperature to Alter Interplay between Transmission Potential and Mortality of Dengue-Infected
The extrinsic incubation period is a critical component in the assessment of arboviral transmission potential. It defines the time it takes for a mosquito to become infectious following exposure to an arbovirus. Since this is a temporal process, the lifespan of a mosquito is intimately tied to the e...
