FLY VECTORS MECHANICAL TRANSMISSION OF PATHOGENS

1
FLY VECTORS MECHANICAL TRANSMISSION OF PATHOGENS
flies take many meals for each egg batch, thus
rapid transmission on contaminated mouthparts

FLY VECTORS FLIES COMPARED TO TICKS AS VECTORS
single tick

FLY VECTORS VERTEBRATES AND VECTORS AS RESERVOIRS
eg. bluetongue by Culicoides

FLY VECTORS AMPLIFICATION OF VIRUS
TRANSMISSION
eg. bluetongue by Culicoides
vector needs to survive well and feed often
reservoir host
disease host but insufficient
virus in vector refractory
host disease host
plenty virus in vector
