摘要
Mosquitoes adapt to different habitats and feed on a variety of animals.Anthropophilic female mosquitoes,such as Aedes aegypti and Anopheles gambiae,have a strong innate drive to detect their human hosts and acquire blood meals for their egg production[1].Their biting behavior is not only annoying but also transmits many life-threatening diseases.Aedes aegypti has evolved to specialize in biting humans and is the vector of many mosquito-borne diseases,such as dengue virus(DENV),Zika virus(ZIKV),yellow fever virus(YFV),and chikungunya virus(CHIKV)[2].Anopheles gambiae,the malaria vector,has also developed a preference for humans,which makes it an effective vector for disease transmission.Many mosquito-borne infectious diseases pose an increasing global health threat,and consequently,there is an urgent need to control their transmission.
