Since ear frequency tuning is important for mosquito mating, blocking octopamine signaling should interfere with mosquito mating. These findings can contribute to finding new ways to control mosquito-borne diseases.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span>You can also see the press release of this work on the
