These viruses appear to be rapidly displacing the American genotype of DEN-2 in the Western Hemisphere. To determine whether distinct genotypes of DEN-2 virus are better adapted to mosquito transmission, we classified 15 viral strains of DEN-2 phylogenetically and compared their ability to infect and disseminate in different populations of <jats:italic>Aedes aegypti<\/jats:italic> mosquitoes. Envelope gene nucleotide sequence analysis confirmed that six strains belonged to the American genotype and nine strains were of the SE Asian genotype. The overall rate of disseminated infection in mosquitoes from Texas was 27% for the SE Asian genotype versus 9% for the American genotype. This pattern of infection was similar in another population of mosquitoes sampled from southern Mexico (30% versus 13%). Together, these findings suggest that <jats:italic>Ae. aegypti<\/jats:italic> tends to be more susceptible to infection by DEN-2 viruses of the SE Asian genotype than to those of the American genotype, and this may have epidemiologic implications.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4269\/ajtmh.2003.68.539","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,5,10]],"date-time":"2017-05-10T17:38:51Z","timestamp":1494437931000},"page":"539-544","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":113,"title":["EFFICIENCY OF DENGUE SEROTYPE 2 VIRUS STRAINS TO INFECT AND DISSEMINATE IN AEDES AEGYPTI"],"prefix":"10.4269","volume":"68","author":[{"given":"PHILIP M.","family":"ARMSTRONG","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Virology and Immunology, Southwest Foundation for Biomedical Research, San Antonio, Texas"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"REBECA","family":"RICO-HESSE","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Virology and Immunology, Southwest Foundation for Biomedical Research, San Antonio, Texas"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2795","reference":[{"key":"R1","series-title":"Am J Epidemiol","first-page":"653","volume":"120","year":"1984"},{"key":"R2","series-title":"Am J Trop Med Hyg","first-page":"566","volume":"56","year":"1997"},{"key":"R3","series-title":"J Infect Dis","first-page":"2","volume":"181","year":"2000"},{"key":"R4","series-title":"Cah ORSTOM Ser Entomol Med Parasitol","first-page":"165","volume":"21","year":"1983"},{"key":"R5","series-title":"Ann Virol","first-page":"233","volume":"134","year":"1983"},{"key":"R6","series-title":"Virology","first-page":"479","volume":"174","year":"1990"},{"key":"R7","series-title":"J Virol","first-page":"3227","volume":"74","year":"2000"},{"key":"R8","series-title":"Am J Trop Med Hyg","first-page":"96","volume":"58","year":"1998"},{"key":"R9","series-title":"Virology","first-page":"75","volume":"281","year":"2001"},{"key":"R10","series-title":"Virology","first-page":"244","volume":"230","year":"1997"},{"key":"R11","series-title":"Lancet","first-page":"1431","volume":"354","year":"1999"},{"key":"R12","series-title":"Arch Virol","first-page":"209","volume":"118","year":"1991"},{"key":"R13","series-title":"Nat Med","first-page":"816","volume":"6","year":"2000"},{"key":"R14","series-title":"Am J Trop Med Hyg","first-page":"644","volume":"45","year":"1991"},{"key":"R15","series-title":"Am J Trop Med Hyg","first-page":"1045","volume":"28","year":"1979"},{"key":"R16","series-title":"Am J Trop Med Hyg","first-page":"603","volume":"34","year":"1985"},{"key":"R17","series-title":"Vector Borne Zoonotic Dis","first-page":"159","volume":"1","year":"2001"},{"key":"R18","series-title":"Am J Trop Med Hyg","first-page":"1053","volume":"28","year":"1979"},{"key":"R19","series-title":"Am J Trop Med Hyg","first-page":"533","volume":"26","year":"1977"},{"key":"R20","series-title":"Virology","first-page":"458","volume":"244","year":"1998"},{"key":"R21","series-title":"J Infect Dis","first-page":"1213","volume":"185","year":"2002"},{"key":"R22","series-title":"J Virol","first-page":"4738","volume":"73","year":"1999"},{"key":"R23","year":"1998"},{"key":"R24","year":"1990"},{"key":"R25","series-title":"Am J Trop Med Hyg","first-page":"143","volume":"36","year":"1987"},{"key":"R26","series-title":"Am J Trop Med Hyg","first-page":"864","volume":"51","year":"1994"},{"key":"R27","series-title":"Virology","first-page":"300","volume":"230","year":"1997"}],"container-title":["The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ajtmh.org\/view\/journals\/tpmd\/68\/5\/article-p539.xml","content-type":"text\/html","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ajtmh.org\/downloadpdf\/journals\/tpmd\/68\/5\/article-p539.xml","content-type":"text\/html","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"syndication"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ajtmh.org\/downloadpdf\/journals\/tpmd\/68\/5\/article-p539.xml","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,3]],"date-time":"2024-09-03T16:53:25Z","timestamp":1725382405000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ajtmh.org\/view\/journals\/tpmd\/68\/5\/article-p539.xml"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2003,5]]},"references-count":27,"journal-issue":{"issue":"5"},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4269\/ajtmh.2003.68.539","relation":{},"ISSN":["0002-9637"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0002-9637","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2003,5]]}}}
