This study shows that the fruitless gene in male Aedes aegypti mosquitoes is essential for swarming and attraction to female flight sounds, with its disruption causing loss of these behaviors.

This study shows that the doublesex gene is essential for female-specific flight and hearing traits in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes by regulating gene expression in thoraces and ears.

The paper investigates sex-specific hearing in mosquitoes by analyzing the role of a female-specific isoform of the doublesex gene and its impact on auditory function.

This study identifies the octopamine beta2 receptor as a target to disrupt mosquito reproduction but shows that amitraz, an agonist, is ineffective as a mating disruptor.

The paper investigates how octopamine and its receptors modulate hearing function in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, identifying cAMP as a mediator and showing no link between hair erection and frequency tuning.

This study investigates the role of the Shal potassium channel in Drosophila hearing, finding it contributes to mechanotransduction and active antennal tuning.

The paper identifies sexual dimorphisms in auditory processing in Aedes aegypti by combining neurotracing, calcium imaging, and molecular analyses, finding enriched motile ciliary-related terms in males.

The paper identifies octopamine as a regulator of mosquito hearing during swarm time and shows it can be targeted by insecticides.

The paper shows male Anopheles mosquitoes enhance female audibility by adjusting their flight tones at dusk, leveraging circadian rhythms for synchronized mating.
