Abstract excerpt
Significance In female mosquitoes, repeated blood feedings are essential for maintaining gonadotrophic cycles and serve as the basis for pathogen transmission. We demonstrate that the ecdysone-induced protein 93 (E93), a transcription factor implicated in insect metamorphic transitions, regulates reproductive switches in adult females of the major arboviral vector Aedes aegypti . E93 RNA interference before the...
