Fertility decline in female mosquitoes is regulated by the orco olfactory co-receptor
13 May 2023
Abstract excerpt
Female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes undergo multiple rounds of reproduction, known as gonotrophic cycles. These cycles span the period from blood meal intake to oviposition. Understanding how reproductive success is maintained across gonotrophic cycles allows for the identification of molecular targets to reduce mosquito population growth. Odorant receptor co-receptor ( orco ) encodes a conserved insect-specific...
