Abstract

Vector control is essential for preventing mosquito-borne diseases. However, different challenges associated with the development of insecticide resistance and behavioural adaptations across mosquito populations means novel control strategies are urgently needed. In recent years, disrupting mosquito mating has emerged as an alternative target of control tools because of its potential to reduce mosquito population numbers. Mosquito mating relies on sophisticated auditory processing for mate finding in many medically important species. Manipulating this key process could provide novel methods for mosquito control.

操纵蚊子听力的视角。

病媒控制对于预防蚊媒疾病至关重要。然而，与杀虫剂抗药性的发展和蚊子种群的行为适应性相关的不同挑战意味着迫切需要新的控制策略。近年来，干扰蚊子交配因其减少蚊子数量的潜力而成为控制工具的替代目标。在许多具有重要医学价值的物种中，蚊子交配依赖于复杂的听觉处理来寻找配偶。操纵这一关键过程可以提供控制蚊子的新方法。

期刊介绍： Current Opinion in Insect Science is a new systematic review journal that aims to provide specialists with a unique and educational platform to keep up–to–date with the expanding volume of information published in the field of Insect Science. As this is such a broad discipline, we have determined themed sections each of which is reviewed once a year. The following 11 areas are covered by Current Opinion in Insect Science. -Ecology -Insect genomics -Global Change Biology -Molecular Physiology (Including Immunity) -Pests and Resistance -Parasites, Parasitoids and Biological Control -Behavioural Ecology -Development and Regulation -Social Insects -Neuroscience -Vectors and Medical and Veterinary Entomology There is also a section that changes every year to reflect hot topics in the field. Section Editors, who are major authorities in their area, are appointed by the Editors of the journal. They divide their section into a number of topics, ensuring that the field is comprehensively covered and that all issues of current importance are emphasized. Section Editors commission articles from leading scientists on each topic that they have selected and the commissioned authors write short review articles in which they present recent developments in their subject, emphasizing the aspects that, in their opinion, are most important. In addition, they provide short annotations to the papers that they consider to be most interesting from all those published in their topic over the previous year.
