Flea-pathogen Interactions

Flea-Pathogen Interactions is a biological phenomenon that refers to the dynamic processes by which fleas serve as vectors for pathogens through mechanisms of acquisition, colonization, survival, and transmission, distinguishing it from other vector-pathogen relationships by its specific adaptation to blood-feeding arthropods of the order Siphonaptera.
