Males of Aedes aegypti show different clock gene expression profiles in the presence of conspecific females
Abstract Background The study of behavioral and physiological traits in mosquitoes has been mainly focused on females since males are not hematophagous and thus do not transfer the parasites that cause diseases in human populations. However, the performance of male mosquitoes is key for the expansio...
