BZYET 143 Insect Vectors and Vector-Borne Diseases is a comprehensive course designed for Bachelor of Science in Biology (BSB) students, providing a detailed exploration of the biology, ecology, and epidemiology of insect vectors and the diseases they transmit. The course covers both theoretical principles and practical applications, preparing students for careers in public health, epidemiology, or vector control.
The study material begins by examining the biology and behavior of insect vectors, including mosquitoes, ticks, sandflies, and flies. Students learn about vector life cycles, feeding habits, and ecological interactions, as well as the factors influencing vector abundance and distribution.
Additionally, the course addresses vector-borne diseases, covering a range of pathogens transmitted by insect vectors, including viruses, bacteria, protozoa, and helminths. Students gain insights into the epidemiology, transmission cycles, and clinical manifestations of diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, Zika virus, Lyme disease, and sleeping sickness.
Moreover, the course discusses the interactions between pathogens and vector populations, including mechanisms of pathogen transmission, replication, and evolution within vector species. Students learn about the factors influencing vector competence, vectorial capacity, and disease transmission dynamics.
Through case studies, fieldwork experiences, and laboratory exercises, students gain practical skills in identifying vectors, understanding disease transmission cycles, and implementing vector control strategies. This hands-on approach enhances their problem-solving abilities and prepares them for real-world challenges in vector-borne disease management.
In addition to its educational value, this study guide is invaluable for exam preparation. Covering the entire syllabus comprehensively and spanning approximately 300-350 pages, it equips students with the knowledge and skills needed to excel in their exams and understand the complexities of insect vectors and vector-borne diseases.
