Unveiling the Developmental Dynamics and Functional Role of Odorant Receptor Co-receptor ( <i>Orco</i> ) in <i>Aedes albopictus</i> : A Novel Mechanism for Regulating Tuning Odorant Receptor Expression

2025-05-10

Abstract excerpt

As one of the most aggressive disease vectors, the Asian tiger mosquito Aedes albopictus relies heavily on its olfactory system to search for food in the larval stage, locate hosts after eclosion, and identify suitable oviposition sites after blood feeding. In mosquitoes and other insects, the olfactory system detects environmental odors primarily through a diverse repertoire of tuning odorant receptors (ORs), wh...
