Genome-wide identification and expression profiling of odorant receptor genes in the malaria vector Anopheles sinensis
Abstract Background The olfactory system plays a crucial role in regulating insect behaviors. The detection of odorants is mainly mediated by various odorant receptors (ORs) that are expressed in the dendrites of olfactory neurons of chemosensilla. Anopheles sinensis is a major malaria vector in Eas...
