Arbovirus molecular detection in mosquito populations varies considerable between geographical regions and epidemics, influenced by genetic characteristics and microbiome interference on virus replication. Although infected females are responsible for the transmission to vertebrates during bloodfeeding, male infection by CHIKV, ZIKV, and MAYV resultant from vertical route could lead to interepidemic maintenance of these arboviruses in their natural reservoirs.
