Vector control and personal protection against anthropophilic mosquitoes mainly rely on the
use of insecticides and repellents. The search for mosquito-attractive semiochemicals has …

This review focuses on the components of vectorial capacity, providing an update on the
current understanding of how selected aspects of mosquito biology, such as longevity …

Aedes aegypti mosquitoes are a persistent human foe, transmitting arboviruses including
dengue when they feed on human blood. Mosquitoes are intensely attracted to body odor …

A globally invasive form of the mosquito Aedes aegypti specializes in biting humans, making
it an efficient disease vector. Host-seeking female mosquitoes strongly prefer human odour …

Some people are more attractive to mosquitoes than others, but the mechanistic basis of this
phenomenon is poorly understood. We tested mosquito attraction to human skin odor and …

Background A complete genome sequence and the advent of genome editing open up non-
traditional model organisms to mechanistic genetic studies. The mosquito Aedes aegypti is …

Abstract Ammonium (NH4+), a breakdown product of amino acids that can be toxic at high
levels, is detected by taste systems of organisms ranging from C. elegans to humans and …

ABSTRACT A novel mosquito trapping system, the BG-Sentinel® trap, was evaluated as a
monitoring tool for adult Aedes aegypti in field tests in the city of Belo Horizonte, Brazil …

Animals across various phyla exhibit odor-evoked innate attraction behavior that is
developmentally programmed. The mechanism underlying such behavior remains unclear …

Drawing together information previously found only in articles, reviews, symposia
proceedings, commercial literature, and medical entomology texts, Insect Repellents …
