This study shows that JNK signaling in Anopheles gambiae reduces reproductive investment and survival after Plasmodium infection by suppressing ecdysteroid production.

The paper investigates Anopheles gambiae mosquito swarming behavior using 3D trajectory data, finding experimental evidence of male-male interactions rather than random aggregation.

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.
