Molecular characterisation and expression analysis of two heat-shock proteins in Taenia multiceps.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The survival of adult female Aedes mosquitoes is a critical component of their ability to transmit pathogens such as dengue viruses. One of the principal determinants of Aedes survival is temperature, which has been associated with seasonal changes in Aedes populations and limits their geographical distribut...
