A conserved female-specific larval requirement for MtnB function facilitates sex separation in multiple species of disease vector mosquitoes
Abstract Background Clusters of sex-specific loci are predicted to shape the boundaries of the M/m sex-determination locus of the dengue vector mosquito Aedes aegypti, but the identities of these genes are not known. Identification and characterization of these loci could promote a better understand...
