Abstract

Animal “arboviruses” include viruses that are transmitted between their vertebrate hosts by arthropod vectors. They replicate in both their haematophagous arthropod vectors and vertebrate hosts. Vectors become infected after feeding on infected hosts. After replication and dissemination to the vector’s salivary glands, the virus can be transmitted onwards upon feeding on new hosts. Arboviruses also includes mechanically transmitted viruses, as well as viruses that are ingested, passing through the arthropod vector’s system, without replicating, ending in vectors’ saliva. This article considers the mode of transmission, relationships and taxonomy of different arboviruses, arthropods’ antiviral mechanisms and potential control strategies.
