Vector-borne diseases often originate from wildlife and can spill over into the human population. One of the most important determinants of vector-borne disease transmission is the host preference of mosquitoes. Mosquitoes with a specialised host preference are guided by body odours to find their hosts in addition to carbon dioxide. Little is known about the role of mosquito host preference in the spillover of pathogenic agents from humans towards animals and vice versa. In the Republic of Congo, the attraction of mosquitoes to primate host odours was determined, as well as their possible role as malaria vectors, using odour-baited traps mimicking the potential hosts of mosquitoes. Most of the mosquito species caught showed a generalistic host preference. Anopheles obscurus was the most abundant Anopheles mosquito, with a generalistic host preference observed from the olfactory response and the detection of various Plasmodium parasites. Interestingly, Culex decens showed a much higher attraction towards chimpanzee odours than to human or cow odours. Human Plasmodium parasites were observed in both human and chimpanzee blood, although not in the Anopheles mosquitoes that were collected. Understanding the role of mosquito host preference for cross-species parasite transmission provides information that will help to determine the risk of spillover of vector-borne diseases.

吸引蚊子感染灵长类动物的气味及其对人畜共患疟原虫传播的影响。

媒介传播的疾病通常起源于野生生物,并可能扩散到人口中。媒介传播疾病传播的最重要决定因素之一是蚊子的宿主偏好。具有特殊宿主偏好的蚊子会受到体味的引导,除了二氧化碳之外,还会找到它们的宿主。关于蚊子宿主偏好在病原体从人向动物的溢出中的作用还知之甚少。在刚果共和国,使用模仿潜在蚊子的诱饵诱集装置,确定了蚊子对灵长类宿主气味的吸引力以及它们作为疟疾媒介的可能作用。捕获的大多数蚊虫种类表现出普遍的宿主偏好。暗淡按蚊是蚊子中数量最多的蚊子,从嗅觉反应和各种疟原虫寄生虫的检测中观察到具有普遍性的宿主偏好。有趣的是,库克斯臭鼬对黑猩猩的气味比对人或牛的气味更具吸引力。在人类和黑猩猩的血液中都观察到了人类疟原虫的寄生虫,尽管在收集的按蚊中没有。了解蚊子宿主偏好对跨物种寄生虫传播的作用可提供有助于确定媒介传播疾病外溢风险的信息。尽管不在收集的按蚊中。了解蚊子宿主偏好对跨物种寄生虫传播的作用可提供有助于确定媒介传播疾病外溢风险的信息。尽管不在收集的按蚊中。了解蚊子宿主偏好对跨物种寄生虫传播的作用可提供有助于确定媒介传播疾病外溢风险的信息。
