COMPOSITIONS AND RELATED METHODS FOR CONTROLLING VECTOR-BORNE DISEASES

摘要: Provided herein are agents, compositions, and methods useful for animal health, e.g., altering the level, activity, or metabolism of one more microorganisms resident in a host insect (e.g., arthropod, insect, pathogen vector), alteration resulting decrease fitness host. The invention features composition that includes an agent phage, peptide, small molecule, antibiotic, combinations thereof) can alter host's microbiota manner is detrimental to By disrupting microbial levels, metabolism, diversity, agents described may be used variety insects carry vector-borne pathogens cause disease animals.
