For that reason, Wolbachia-infected Ae. aegypti are currently being released into the field as part of a novel strategy to reduce DENV transmission. However, there is evidence that DENV can be transmitted vertically from mother to progeny, and this may help the virus persist in nature in the absence of regular human transmission. The effect of Wolbachia infection on this process had not previously been examined.","tracks":[{"project":"PubMed_Structured_Abstracts","denotations":[{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":0,"end":606},"obj":"BACKGROUND"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"PubMed_Structured_Abstracts"}]}],"config":{"attribute types":[{"pred":"source","value type":"selection","values":[{"id":"PubMed_Structured_Abstracts","color":"#ec93d1","default":true}]}]}}
