Abstract
Experiments were conducted in the laboratory on C. bitaeniorhynchus to determine the possible role of males in maintaining or sustaining the Japanese encephalitis virus activity in nature. It was found that infected males are capable of passing on the virus to female mosquitoes while mating. The occurrence of phenomenon of venereal transmission of this virus may have epidemiological importance.Entities:
