A type of virus that lives in insects like mosquitoes and is passed onto humans through insect bites.
a virus spread by arthropods. Arbovirus is short for ar thropod- bo rne virus. They are most commonly spread by blood-sucking insects such as mosquitoes. Arboviruses can cause minor illnesses such as mild fevers and rashes or they can cause potentially fatal illnesses such as encephalitis (inflammation of the brain).
any of various RNA viruses transmitted by arthropods. I.e., "arboviruses" are not a taxonomic group. (from ar thropod bo rne virus, 1957)
a large heterogeneous group of RNA viruses divisible into groups on the basis of the virions; they have been recovered from arthropods, bats, and rodents; most are borne by arthropods; they are linked by the epidemiologic concept of transmission between vertebrate hosts by arthropod vectors (mosquitoes, ticks, sandflies, midges, etc.) that feed on blood; they can cause mild fevers, hepatitis, hemorrhagic fever, and encephalitides
a type of virus that is transmitted by arthropods (insects, spiders, etc
a vector that replicates in an invertebrate vector and in a vertebrate host (Gullan et al
a virus which is transmitted by an insect while a bacteriophage is a virus that infects a bacterium
virus transmitted by arthropods (i.e., mosquitoes); yellow fever, dengue fever, and equine encephalitis are caused by arboviruses.
a virus whos life cycle includes transmission by arthropods.
A virus transmitted by blood-sucking arthopods (e.g., mosquitoes and ticks).
any of various viruses transmitted by arthropods and including the causative agents of dengue fever, yellow fever, and some encephalitis
Any of a large group of viruses transmitted by arthropods, such as mosquitoes and ticks, that includes the causative agents of encephalitis, yellow fever and dengue.
Arbovirus is a shortened name given to viruses that are transmitted by arthropods, or arthropod-borne viruses .
