Abel-Nwachukwu J, Matthews B
Curr Biol
. 2025 Feb;
35(3):R96-R98.
PMID: 39904316
Widespread insecticide resistance has sparked the search for new strategies to combat vector-borne disease. Recent work uncovers the mechanism behind nootkatone, a grapefruit-derived compound, which works as a dual-action repellent...

Morita T, Lyn N, von Heynitz R, Goldman O, Sorrells T, DeGennaro M, et al.
Sci Adv
. 2025 Jan;
11(1):eadn5758.
PMID: 39742477
Sensory compensation occurs when loss of one sense leads to enhanced perception by another sense. We have identified a previously undescribed mechanism of sensory compensation in female mosquitoes. Odorant receptor...

Trends Parasitol
. 2024 Oct;
40(11):954-955.
PMID: 39424471
The yellow fever mosquito Aedes aegypti uses multiple sensory systems to identify a blood-meal victim. Recent work by Chandel et al. identifies infrared radiation as a medium-distance cue acting through...

Front Insect Sci
. 2024 Mar;
2:938644.
PMID: 38468779
Insects and parasites dominate the biosphere, in terms of known biodiversity and mode of life, respectively. Consequently, insects play a part in many host-parasite systems, either as parasite, host, or...

Cold Spring Harb Protoc
. 2023 Dec;
2024(7):pdb.top107670.
PMID: 38087466
The female mosquito is endowed with the responsibility of gene transfer from one generation to another through careful delivery of her eggs to an appropriate environment. To guarantee a successful...

Cold Spring Harb Protoc
. 2023 Dec;
2024(7):pdb.prot108342.
PMID: 38087463
Egg-laying preferences of mosquitoes can reveal key neurosensory mechanisms informing the decision-making process for this critical behavior. A single blood meal results in a gravid female mosquito laying more than...
