  abstract = {{T}he natural transmission of dengue virus from an infected female mosquito to its progeny, namely the vertical transmission, was researched in wild caught {A}edes aegypti during an important outbreak in the town of {S}anta {C}ruz de la {S}ierra, {B}olivia. {M}osquitoes were collected at the preimaginal stages (eggs, larvae and pupae) then reared up to adult stage for viral detection using molecular methods. {D}engue virus serotypes 1 and 3 were found to be co-circulating with significant higher prevalence in male than in female mosquitoes. {O}f the 97 pools of {A}e. aegypti (n = 635 male and 748 female specimens) screened, 14 pools, collected in {F}ebruary-{M}ay in 2007, were found positive for dengue virus infection: five {DEN}-1 and nine {DEN}-3. {T}he average true infection rate ({TIR}) and minimum infection rate ({MIR}) were respectively 1.08 % and 1.01 %. {T}hese observations suggest that vertical transmission of dengue virus may be detected in vectors at the peak of an outbreak as well as several months before an epidemic occurs in human population.},
