Fat body–specific vitellogenin expression regulates host-seeking behaviour in the mosquito Aedes albopictus

9 May 2019

Abstract excerpt

The high vector competence of mosquitoes is intrinsically linked to their reproductive strategy because females need a vertebrate blood meal to develop large batches of eggs. However, the molecular mechanisms and pathways regulating mosquito host-seeking behaviour are largely unknown. Here, we test whether host-seeking behaviour may be linked to the female's energy reserves, with low energy levels triggering the...
