2025-08-25
Abstract excerpt
Chemosensory systems are critical for insect survival, enabling host seeking, food acquisition, and oviposition site selection. While insect-associated microbes are known to influence host development and immunity, their role in modulating chemosensory behavior remains poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that Escherichia coli , a bacterium identified in non-gut tissues of Aedes albopictus and experimentally...
