Production of germ-free mosquitoes via transient colonisation allows stage-specific investigation of host–microbiota interactions

11 Feb 2021

Abstract excerpt

The mosquito microbiota impacts the physiology of its host and is essential for normal larval development, thereby influencing transmission of vector-borne pathogens. Germ-free mosquitoes generated with current methods show larval stunting and developmental deficits. Therefore, functional studies of the mosquito microbiota have so far mostly been limited to antibiotic treatments of emerging adults. In this study,...
